A Time Line On To Earn Money How Long Does IT Take To Make Money Online (With Hubpages ect.)

Hubpages and other online writing sites are a business, and time and money are two things that initially seems interrelated until you get into the get rich quick ideas or websites. What you need is a plan a time line and the expectation that at some point if you are making money and want to make more-- you'll have to do something else.

A good start to making money is understanding how long it can take to do this. It is also an understanding of what you can and can not do with the Google AdSense program-- which is the main program that people make money with. This takes time and energy-- but in the long term if you know what you need to do you will improve your earnings.

So I'll go through a bit of a time line which will help you in terms of how much money you can expect realistically-- using hubpages and the Google AdSense affiliate program. Sorry, no get rich quick I don't have a magic wand for that!

The I am Totally new and Need Money Fast Stage: This I would say is the hardest stage of them all, it's not really limited to a time line, but more of a mind set. This can be only a few days, or many months or even years.

The first part will only last about say three months, after which most experienced people will lose patience with the how do you make money on hubpages or show me the money or writing poor quality hubs. In other words, if you go to the answer section and you answer is not "answered" you've been asking to many of the same questions and not liking the answer.

The need money fast stage is harder to quantify, it's similar to the get rich quick idea. Face it we all need money. Some are more vocal about it than others. Nobody will get rich quick, and money is something you earn with time and effort.

So, with this one, This is the stage you need to get out of the fastest. Be realistic: Google AdSense, ( which is most often quoted) publishers have an average chance of 1 in 4 to make a payout per month.

The next stage:

Make Hubs, and the Learning Curve of the Hubpages Business: This is where the learning curve hits the stride, people begin to look at others hubs, and to try to mentally figure out what made their hubs so successful. They begin to ask the question of "if you are writing this can it make money?"

For some the answer is easy, yes they make money and while it's not "big time" money from say, Google AdSense or Amazon or eBay, it is enough. (For the record, yes I do make some money through hubpages, but I have been here a while) For others they can say they've been here for... forever and hardly make a dime, but that isn't what they are here for.

Now depending on the topics you write, it can take anywhere from 2 months to get your first payout to more than a year. It is the topic which matter, along with links and hub scores, so the higher the hub score the more likely you'll get traffic and the more likely you'll make money online on a regular basis.

Of course this means: you'll need to learn a bit of Social Networking, Keywords, Linking, SEO and Google, and the other affiliate programs, the money making business part...

Which brings you to the next stage.

Time Line... The Growth of My Hubs and My Knowledge:This is the stage where you begin to think in terms of "me and others" you love the the topics you write on, and you've edited them and had someone else to look them over, so this is a big bonus.

But now, you focus on increasing the one thing you'd like to have: money.

So, you begin to look for people on hubpages who talk about this topic. You learn about SEO, and about keywords and content, and you realize your knowledge on the subject isn't so great. So this is when you decide to learn.

You get the basics from many others who have been there and done that. You use Social Networking sites, and get traffic from them. You edit your older hubs to make them more search engine friendly ( That's really what SEO is all about!) You learn what works and what doesn't work, and this stage can last for anywhere between two upwards of one year.

Remember that for me, I have been in the online world since 2006 and have had a blog up and running since July 2008. So a lot of my learning curve was found there. I Learned more about Google when I set up and AdWords account than anything else.... ( My Advice on Google AdWords, the keyword idea section is great, so it is something to look at. I admit I didn't do so well with the rest of it.. lost more money then i made... so there you go: lesson if you want to get rich quick it's not going to happen.) Still you begin to increase traffic and that is a big help.

Then The next Satge...

The Final Stage... Money begins to come on a more regular basis, but you're loving writing so much that the money is a bonus: Now I am at this stage, money is a bonus, my followers are more fun, I can't thank them enough. it matters in a way I make some money, after all that is why I write.

But in the grand scheme of things I as lo know how much I've learned about myself is a far better gift than anything money could buy. (Okay if I get $100 in one day I'm not going to complain....) but I understand that there are no secret get rich quick schemes, there is a community of people on hubpages and on the social networking sites and in other places.

Traffic to my hubs is up, and the comments are always fun to read, but also, the time spent on writing my hubs is not as "high" as it was. My learning curve no consists of reading the best of the best to learn more. It is all about increasing traffic and improvng your hubs.

So, once you've learned about traffic and keywords and the value of links, you will see money will come your way. Now, I am in no way suggesting that in this business it is anything but fast, but $3.33 a day will give you a monthly payout.) You're enjoying the social networking aspect and use the keywords there well, and writing and making money are just plain fun.

The Final Comment: I would say it will take longer to make money on hubapges if you don't want to learn and simply focus on how fast you can make big money. Even with say ezine articles or blogs it takes time to establish yourself. So it really depends on how much learning you want to do, you will make money and honestly sometimes it won't take long, but that's with a bit of luck, and some good followers.

Now here are a few points and some hub writers who you should read:

Publish good quality good content hubs. ( If you are wondering who try relache, or lorlie6 or even better dohn121 or duchess O'blunt)

Never be afraid to edit a hub title, it will help you in the end. ( Lizze, and many others)

Help Others (tonymac04, Ann Nonymous, Skye2day, one2get2no,)

Keep publishing good quality hubs, and work at it and you will find it really didn't take long to make the money you've dreamed of!

To your success!
