Kate Swanson (author) from Sydney on November 29, 2016: Should I do a little rewriting and resubmit it, to try to get it on WanderWisdom? The STAFF asked me to get the Venice one ready and resubmit. I have been a Hubber for almost three months now, but I seem to be spending most of my "writing" time reading through the Learning Center and these forums, trying to figure it all out rather than writing more Hubs! I do have another Hub that's featured. Marisa, thanks for the clarification about publishing 10 Hubs before applying for AdSense. It's so time consuming to try to find all the answers on the website! Marisa, another question-Will the Hubs I've published so far be accumulating earnings that I'll be able to collect once I can qualify for Google AdSense, or will earning only start to accrue once I'm on AdSense? I really appreciate your sharing your expertise. Janda Raker from Amarillo, Texas on November 29, 2016: myself and I feel very bad for all the creators when their work is stolen, and apparently inadvertently! I always wish we could do something about that, and I love that you are trying to create some awareness.
Some people would use any image they are able to find with Google Search, and put, "Image taken from Google with thanks", and feel that they have given the credit, and are free to use the Image. I have also observed many people, all over the Internet, have some peculiar confusions about usage of images. Indeed a lot in the learning center can be confusing for new people, especially if they are just starting with online writing endeavour. You've included some great information here. I know that dancer would be furious if someone used her choreography without permission, yet she uses a photo without a second thought for the photographer.Īnusha Jain from Delhi, India on October 22, 2017: Only yesterday I saw a dancer sharing a copyright photo. Kate Swanson (author) from Sydney on October 22, 2017: This is a great hub, thanks for the information! John Bullock from Yorkshire, England on November 17, 2017: When that happens is unpredictable - it could be a few hours or it could be a month. That's because Google isn't instant - you have to wait until Google's robots go back and crawl that site again, and discover the page has gone. The HubPages duplicate checker works by checking Google, and a page doesn't disappear from Google the minute it's deleted from a site. If it does, your Hub will be unpublished. When you publish a Hub, an automated checker looks to see whether the text exists anywhere else.
The Duplicate Content Penalty How to Avoid the Duplicate Content Penalty
If you are using photos from photo websites, make sure you 're using them legally, and also make sure you use the download button to get the best quality photo you can.
Don't do that on HubPages - images on HubPages must be clear, not fuzzy, even if the reader decides to click to view them full-size. Many people reduce the size of images before posting them on a website to save server space and reduce load times.
Instead, extract the URL you need from the HTML code and create your own hyperlink. Most HTML code includes two or more URL's, so they can break the two-links rule.
Don't bother publishing anything under 400 words, unless you have a LOT of images and/or videos.
