I love the community. Its wonderful to be around other people who have intellectual aptitude who can, and are willing to (that being willing is a big part), engage in fruitful debates where learning something new is the general end result.



I enjoy being able to publish what I want to publish without being bothered (I sure they do harass you, but it hasn't happened to me, well it did kinda, but we will talk about that in the nega-section).



I am glad Hubpages has begun to break bread (share revenue). If it wasn't for the Hubpages sharing program, I may have not opened this new account and began publishing again. The extra incentive is a great motivator to create quality hubs. Smart asses.



The module based, on the fly architecture apparatus. I wish I had that feature in my web page designer. I'm jealous. You bastards.



It lays the foundation for a Hubber to think about monetarily maximizing the Hub, with a psychologically infrastructured layout, to its highest profitability potential by ensnaring the unsuspecting customer.

A concept that I have not seen done on any of the hubs I have seen, nor have I done it to mine. In the year plus time I have been hubbing, I have yet to see one properly monetized hub that made me want to buy or click something. I have not even treated my hubs in this fashion.


In fact, this thought just came to me and was off topic, but it funked so good I just had to type it.



You just have to love the web visibilty.
I shouldn't have to elaborate much because if you are reading this, you know what I mean.



The women are insanely hot
. Well according to their pics. Be cautious, because you may be looking at a super hot cutie, and in reality it may be a hair backed, burly, manbearpig you are calling a sweetheart over the web for the world to see.


I guess it doesn't matter, because if that is in fact true, you would never meet her anyway. So I guess in that case, calling her, him, or, it a sweetheart would be a forgivable gross oversight worthy of forgiveness. I digress.

Do You Agree

  • I agree wtih everything you said Viz, because you are a damn fine man, and a pillar of the community
  • I disagree, because I am a Hubpage boot licker
  • I agree with some, but not all, of what u Said Viz
  • I just don't care and I hope I can just earn a few bucks hubbing.
  • None of the Above

I am unhappy about not having modules in my profile. What if I want to put a book in my profile? What if I want a video in my profile? What's wrong with that?


It just pisses me off that I can pimp out and monetize a hub, but they don't give a damn about letting me customize, lovify, and monetarily boogeyfy my boobie pie. Umm, I meant my profile.


I'm ok, just keep reading.



Explain to me right fricken now why I cant monetize my profile!!!



Why are the personal communications functions neutered.


Why am I not able to open a chat with a fellow Hubber, via Hubpages, and convene, fine I get the fact that we have comments which contribute to the hubs, but there is no comment thingy in my profile and that messaging system with the CAPTCHA abomination is worst thing to ever stain the earth since the AIDS virus and Lady Gaga.



I am more than willing to join the army of needed warriors to go out and kill that godforsaken despicable, cardiac arrest inflicting, "Contact (hubbers name)" feature. I hate that damn thing. That thing sucks and needs to be rethought.


I don't have 39 months to sit around and try to translate the captcha message when I am trying to converse with the Hub Family.


Oh yeah I understand the spammer threat, I got a delete key too baby right here. And why does it have to come to even come to that, add a friends feature or something that removes barricades, come on!



I am not saying go and become Facebook or anything, but you know what I mean. Seems like I am ranting. I am.



May I please load a simple, harmless picture to my profile's body, anything wrong with that? Huh!



Why can't I use HTML!



I may want to use some html for something.



What if I want different background colors for my hubs?


Why not multiple themes. I am tired of this old bland boring dead white page. Gimme a different color scheme will ya!

Yes, I caught that you are following me, so came here to see your rant. It is a wee bit of a rant, but interesting too. I would also love to see more html allowed in individual hubs and even better things on our profiles so they could be more appealing rather than all the same. I have tried pimping out some of my hubs with banners at the ends of them. Are you any good with GIMP or Photoshop graphics software? No worries. Don't be afraid to try new things. But great hub anyhooo.

Thank you, I am honored to be friends with such an accomplished Hubber like your self.

Don't forget to vote. Choose the "Viz you are a damn fine man" option in both votes, thanks. :)

Hi VizFact...I love catching a good rant and I shall begin the following process to keep abreast of any further developments on that front! Thanks for ran...uhh...sharing!

All is good. I had to edit it a bit though, damn I should have argued that I am pissed because the hubs don't self edit like they should.

Thanks for the comment!

Hahaha! Funny! You know how to flatter, I think the survey is definitely egotistical in places! But that is funny too. I mean that in a nice way there. Any chance you could add an -

"Am I doing something wrong here, dude?" kind of question. Wonder how many might tick that part.

You could trick out your hubs by varying the placement of text capsules. And you can change the colors of some text boxes if you nudge them to the right side. Also Youtube videos are known to be popular with folks!

Damn fine, I say! LOL!

Ahh, I on the pix and videos I was talking about the profile. I try to make it a point to add videos to all my hubs, or either make them.

I am going to update the poll with your suggestion. Thank you for the tip.

Oh never mind, I can't add any poll options that puts me in harms way. Sorry. I will not self defecate.

VizFact The Dude Hub Author 9 months ago

Fine. I put "none of the above" of the second poll too.

You really want everything, doncha? But I guess that's okay. I don't complain much because I paid nothing for the privilege and if I don't like it, I can always go elsewhere, it's a free...cyberspace...?

VizFact The Dude Hub Author 9 months ago

@Paradise7 you are taking this the wrong way. This is neutral Hub with both sections cancelling each other out. c'mon Paradise7, c'mon!

I love Hubpages.

"I have yet to see one properly monetized hub that made me want to buy or click something."

This is a gret hub. Are you really like this? Is this normal for you? I think I might just follow you because I am soooo unlike you.

I quoted you at the beginning because I think you have hit on the main issue that we all need to focus upon. "Why would anybody want to click on my hub or your hub????".

I think the reason is: I don't care one whit what you are talking about!

or,(and I believe this is critical) I don't get what you are talking about by your title!!

You are a dynamic writer. Make sure you write your hubs not only for the right audience but also for an audience that is big and represents the kind of group advertizers want to attract.

Believe me, I wish hubs would self-edit too. You have some fancy footwork, keep it coming.

Who cares what you want or, for that matter, what I want. Show us how you can get what you want in this environment.

I love Hubpages, too.

Cheers to you the Dude. Voted you up. As I say, might follow you!

I thought that having a live chat channel on here would be very helpful. It would be interesting to see how other hubbers would dress up their profiles if allowed to. I thought this was an interesting hub. Thanks!

@Maralexa This hub has more than four messages. This hub, was my feeble, mortal, attempt to be clever. I tried.

The title basically says that the Hub has two sides. I can't believe you missed that, its at the top first and frontal.

The first part was positive points. The second part was negative points. I thought that would have been noticed, but again, I was trying to be clever. Look I tried Maralexa, I tried. When these things go wrong they end miserably.

The monetizing the hubs part was something you would have had to read the hub to get, that's special and thought provoking in my opinion. I think.

I am not worthy of having you as a follower. I must improve because in a perfect world you wouldn't have a second thought about following me, and you would have told your friends too.

This is a nasty oversight on my part that I am going to start working on tomorrow, at about 10:37 am Central Time US, to correct so help me God!

@tlpoague Thank you for the kind words.

Whilst respecting your hubscore and the 75 hubs I am going to have to read I must say, "you are a damn fine person and a pillar to the community".

You can write that is for certain (I believe) I will investigate further but at any rate Thank you for visiting my site and joining up at the hub club I have going. Let me know if you eve make any bucks via hubs.

As far as I can tell my google money went down and I earned much faster with the google ads only. God is my source and I write for what I am called for or would starve based on income from here.

Welcome aboard and keep on. Many Blessings always

Thank you skye, I have never seen your website, I wish you would have linked it.

Page rank has a lot to do with making money here @ Hubpages.

Make money online is like making gumbo, Hubpages is one small ingredient that the final cousine cannot afford to have missing.

Very interesting and original take on HubPages. I love it—the concept, the platform, the people. The improvements you want sound reasonable enough to me.
