I think the big thing is that all of these type of user generated pages get slapped by Google at some point. It seems Hubpages have come back stronger then Squidoo because they have no-follow attributes added until you hit certain benchmarks. Less Spam=Happier Google and better rankings for the rest of us.

To tell you all the truth, I don’t really know whats happening with all these new promote your content/write for a living sites. Most of them don’t get enough coverage, don’t really pay you on time or enough or eventually get shut down or banned from search engines. For the past few months I’ve been using one particular publishing network who’s name I will not bring up so that people here will actually take me seriously. The work that I publish gets great coverage and I actually made a few green ones. I write because I love it, when squidoo and hubpages start giving me these weird excuses that only beginners can make up, It kinda puts me down. For the time being I’m more than satisfied with the successful network I’m using, but I am always open minded for new ones. If any of you have any recommendations, I’m all ears!

Google has now slapped Hubpages now and allot of affiliate hubs are being banned or shout down for having affiliate links in them. So I’d stay clear of hubs if you just gonna use them for profit.

I need more coffee. I typed the year in wrong. Yaaaawwn.

My personal experience with HubPages vs. Squidoo pages is that I seem to get more traffic from my Squidoo lenses.

I have done nothing much with either since Google slapped Squidoo and my income dropped through the floor there.

Then I just got busy with other things and didn’t really think about them until I saw your post.

So for not doing much of anything Squidoo is still sending me more traffic.

Hubpages do rank well in google as well as in yahoo . I have a few hubs there and without promoting much , I have already received some decent traffic from search engines.
