Recently HubPages revamped the formatting of the articles,
or as they are called “hubs.” The pages
now have a much more attractive look.
One of the changes was to place ads in a block format along
the right side of the page. (Ads no longer appear in the middle of the text
where they might be confused with content.) There are three ads on the side.The
top and bottom ads are paid advertisements.The middle ad is for the author. It
shows a picture, title, and blurb for another hub written by the same author.
Sometimes the hub shown is clearly related. For instance, if
you go to my Cranberry
Orange Nut Quick Bread Recipe, you will see an ”ad” for my hub, Healthy
Cranberry Cherry Pie with Walnut Crunch Topping Recipe. And vice versa.
Sometimes the pairing is for a hub that is tangentially
related. For instance, if you go to my
hub for Political
Phrases in the News you will see an ad for my hub, Thou
Shall Not Kill: The Immorality of the Death Penalty. I don’t know why they didn’t choose my other
hub on politics, Political
Parties and Symbols; Where Do They Come From and What Do They Mean?, but at
least it is a social issue that might be discussed by politicians.
However, this one floored me. I have a hub, Edith
Piaf: The Little Sparrow with No Regrets. I begin with a brief bio telling the facts of
her life and her death and then I do a
tribute poem about her life which ends on an upbeat line, a paraphrase from Candide . “This is the best of all my
possible lives.” This was paired with my hub about Zombies, ZOMBIES:
The Popularity, Mythology, Psychology, Philosophy, Morality, and Reality of the
Living Dead.
