Can not promote my CB site

12 replies
I promote my site which sells CB products by using hub pages. Today I just saw this warning:

This hub contains links to a prohibited site or affiliate program, such as:

Sites that contain pop-ups that interfere with site navigation, for example, when clicking the back or close buttons, or that redirect users to unwanted websites
Links to eBook sales pages and lead capture forms
Affiliate or promotional links in subject areas containing a high proportion of low quality, dubious, or promotional content (for example, forex, **** berry, MLM, and weight loss)
Prohibited affiliate programs include: Clickbank, Wealthy Affiliate University, Max Bounty, and Market Health. Commonly used affiliate programs are evaluated based on the totality of how they are used on HubPages. While some of the offers or sites promoted may be ok, if a preponderance are not then they may be prohibited. Unfortunately, we are not able to make exceptions to this on a case by case basis.

Any one having this warning too? This is bad. Where should I find Hubpage replacement?

    Always put content on your own domain,that way you have full control over it and nobody can take it down.

      Steve is absolutely right on this one. I for one found this out the hard way. After investing an enormous amount of time I woke one morning only to find my account and all my pages were gone with the wind. All those hours and hours...gone. Why? never got a straight answer. I did something the didn't like. It wasn't hubpages, but one like them.
      Build your own site, put your unique content on your site and build backlinks to your site. Then you'll have something not easily taken away. Oh yeah, and make sure to keep freshly updated backups so you can get the site back up quickly elsewhere if your host does anything screwy. Was I too emphatic about "your site"? It might seem like it, until something really bad happens.

          I have personally experienced bad things with web 2.0 sites like Hubpages. It seems that after the latest Google update their are very carefull with the content published on their sites.

          I would have recommended Squidoo instead but Squidoo has changing. I had a few lenses for years that were making money but suddently squidoo taked them down for no apparently reason.

          I would recommend you instead of having your own domain and then use web 2.0 sites just to link back to your main site. In case they will disapar at least you would have the main site

          Hope it helps

    If you are adamant about using hubpages as a source to drive traffic to the sales page, then try to change your strategy by first taking visitors to your own site, and from there you can lead them to the sales page. My suggestion is to split the content that you put in your hub into two parts, and to read the second part, the visitors need to visit your site/landing page. From there you can take them to the sales page via your affiliate link.

    Also, make sure your page (on your own domain) that you link to has some informative information on it. It should not be just a sales page or a landing page.

    It may not be what you want to hear. But seriously, free platform has it limitation. The best is still to have your own domain and hosting. Free platform come up with no limitation when they launch .. later, when users have helped them build enough quality content and make them one of the authority in SE, they start to impose various limitation...

    Earlier Squidoo, then Hubpages..and many more to come..

    Anyway.. to your earlier question.. here are a few others you may still try..

    Weebly, wetpaint, yola, livejournal, blinkweb, yudufreedom...

    Cheers!

      Problem is I use Hubpages just to build backlink. I don't care if I don't get direct traffic from them
