Is it better to create multiple Hubpages accounts for different niches?

5 replies
When I first started Internet Marketing last year, I read that you should have different pen names for each of your niches. The idea is that other people don't know all of the different topics you promote. I have setup three Hubpages accounts, but I promote different niches for each Hubpages name. Do you think I should just write all of my articles on the same name, or should I have usernames for each niche. Maybe it would be better to write about all of my niches on all of my usernames. What do you think?

    The only reason to have them under 1 name is simplicity. It is easier to keep track of 1 account name and password, and it is easier to see and manage everything when it is under 1 account.

    I would recommend doing multiple accounts because you never know what's going to happen. I hear about these social networking/web 2.0 sites deleting and banning accounts for seemingly no reason all the time. If all your eggs are in 1 basket then you can get screwed.

      Bingo. It's happened to me. But... don't be too quick to add lots of Twitter accounts. I had a whole bunch of them pulled simply because it looked "suspicious" to them. I lost a lot of good ones. Since then, I see spammers that have about 10 different accounts auto-spamming the same crap within minutes. And yet, mine got pulled before I could even do anything with them. - Frustrating!

      Moral of this story. Walk slowly in the beginning or you set up red flags.

    It might be because you had multiple accounts from the same IP. This can send up red flags.
