I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I love my job!

Reading blogs is an amazing way to keep up with that worth keeping up with (say that 10 times fast), and today is no exception.

While over at BlogCatalog, I ended up twittering a bit (it has been a while, but I’m doing an experiment now).

Which lead me to today’s writeup. Discover Niche Social Networking by Katy Castro.

Katy makes several very fine points about using social media to market, and why you may or may not be seeing the “results” you were hoping for.

This was Part 5 in a series HubPages has been sending us, and shows why we go on at such great lengths about how truly wonderful Hubpages is for online marketers of any business.

Testimonials and Advice From Current HubPages Users:

“Just to give you an idea, I’ve been with HubPages 4 ½ months, and I make an average of $10 a day from AdSense, plus a couple hundred every month from Ebay/Amazon… It’s been increasing steadily over the time I’ve been here, and I expect that to continue as I get more content up and published!”
- Maddie Ruud – One of Maddie’s Hubs: The Truth About Wu-Yi Tea

“Now I’m making a few hundred dollars per month for the things I enjoy doing. I know more people here are making thousands of dollars per month.”
- len7288 – One of len7288′s Hubs: Health Benefits of Cabbage

“If, like most people, you are on HubPages to share information and make a few dollars, be patient; you won’t find success overnight. Keep writing quality and original content and the money will follow. It took me three months before I got my first click on Google; I now receive a check every month.”
- jimmythejock – One of jimmythejock’s Hubs: World War 1 Trench Warfare
