The phrase "hub page" in this thread can mean two different things. asked the basic question; correctly guessed some people mean a landing page or microsite. In forum context many replies used "hub" the way HubPages did—each user-created article was called a "hub"—while in digital-marketing practice a "hub" often refers to a pillar page that organizes related content.

Several replies (for example , , and ) describe the community publishing model: user-created topical pages that historically shared ad/affiliate revenue and drove traffic. That comparison is useful but incomplete now—similar sites like Squidoo were retired (see Squidoo on Wikipedia) and HubPages evolved over time as well (HubPages on Wikipedia). Platform features, link treatment and monetization rules have changed since 2009, so those old claims about guaranteed backlinks or steady Adsense income should be treated cautiously.

Practical, current advice:

  • If the goal is long-term SEO and earnings, host the core "hub" on your own domain (pillar + cluster pages) and use third-party hubs for distribution, not as the single source.
  • Build a strong pillar page that answers broad intent and link several focused cluster posts back to it; use clear titles, structured data, and canonical tags to avoid duplicate-content issues.
  • Measure conversions (not just pageviews) and keep content updated; check any third-party platform's current link and monetization policy before relying on it.

Note the forum’s optimism about easy earnings (e.g., , ) reflects one era of these networks. Today, quality, topical depth and user intent matter far more than the platform label "hub."

I never heard the term of a hub page. Do you mean, a landing page or a microsite page?

It's the place of writing, publishing & earning. You can write anything as your wish (except adult materials and copied contents). Several affiliate programs are the best reward if you are in hubpages. You can make an account by clicking "sigh in" option at the upper right corner of this page or click here to sigh up. Hubpages is free and best to write, to publish and to earn!!

It's like squidoo-A place to publish and share your content.

The interface resembles predecessors like Squidoo, allowing members to create individual pages on narrow topics of general interest. Its designed around sharing advertising revenue for user-generated content.

As Hub and Squidoo are do follow links, the links in them are treated so favorably by Search Engines.

Hubpage is like a squidoo wherein you can post and share your content. You can even earn some revenues for free with just a small amount of work. You just need to have an interesting and very informative content.
