I agree with the benefits of Squidoo. I am also taking advantage of publishing my lens here to market my services.

Wow! its my luck that I found this helpful post, I have also talked about how to make money using hubpages in my blog. I know hubpages is a wonderful site that can bring a lot of profit if you do the right thing.

Lovely tips JR. Most of the times as an entrepreneur, you will find yourself with a zero startup. I’ll just bookmark this page just in case ;P

Hub Pages isn’t worth the hassles. Squidoo gets my vote.

That is weird! I like Squidoo much better as well, Hub Pages are so full of rules that are totally annoying!

@JR, that’s odd – I have one editorial link to a squidoo lens on the hubpages page, and it’s nofollowed

oh well, I like squidoo better anyway.

@Stu
I just checked my Squid links on a Hub and its do-follow, I think maybe they no-follow after a certain amount of links, I seem to remember something like that, like if you have more than 3 links to the same domain, which is actually a violation of their TOS, and even though they maybe links to different lenses, the domain is still Squidoo, how many links do you have on one HUB?

Ah, ok.

i actually put a link to a squidoo page on a hubpages hub, and it’s definitely nofollowed.

Maybe hubpages just don’t like you linking out to squidoo pages?

@Stu
Thanks for commenting Stu, yes I love the do-follow on Squid, but I do believe the links on Hub are do-follow, just rechecked one of my hubs, checked link location and source code, it is a straight link without any rel tags and it’s do-follow.

The good thing about squidoo is that it allows dofollowed links from in your content – hubpages automatically nofollows links you place in your content, which is no good for you if you are building a network of sites.
