I am also having the same doubt. Hope we are getting answers from other hubbers until we have to wait.
I think that hubpages is on a testing mode. They are displaying Microsoft ads with their impressions and if no Microsoft ad is there that means it is users impression. I think if Microsoft ads workout, they might soon give that affiliate option also.
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.
