How long does it take to start making money on Hubpages?

You have the potential to start earning right away, that is once you've published Hubs and joined the affiliate programs. However, it takes most people several weeks to several months to build up enough of a traffic base to start seeing actual earnings. I've been on the site for almost four years now, and it seems that the folks who get a basic grasp on promotion and who are writing on topics that draw visitors manage to get their first Google payout in 6 months to a year.

Thanks for your answers. I really appreciate it.

You can earn money right away. Everytime someone clicks on one of your ads you earn money. Be sure your adsense / other affiliate details are filled in correctly.

If you just make good quality hubs, you will get a lot of visitors which equals a lot of money!

Patience is the key. I'm for 4 months on hubpages and have 10$ on adsense. But still, try to write the text with more words.(I have the same problem-making short hubs).

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
