Why Hubbers Write Hubs
66
There are a myriad of reasons why Hubbers (people who write for Hubpages) like to create hubs. Here are a few that I can think of:
- Love of writing
- Want to be heard (have a voice)
- Need to vent
- Support for a cause
- Want tointeractwith others
- Love to share their expertise
- To make money
- To cause a ruckus (spout off)
- To make a point
- To share their beliefs
Other reasons why Hubbers write hubs:
- They have no friends
- They have no job
- They have too much time
- They have no life
- They are addicted
- They are avoiding other responsibilities
- They think they know everything
- They want to be discovered
So, which one are you? I know that I write because I have enjoyed my interactions with other hubbers, enjoy the residual income which automatically shows up in my bank account occasionally, and I also enjoy sharing my unique experiences.
I am sure there are many other reasons that I have missed.

Very honorable reason breakfastpop. I am glad I met you on Hubpages. Thanks for commenting.
I love to write and help people with the medical hubs, and sometimes I just like to write, but I love all the people I have met along the way. Plus I have learned so much from others.
That's great Pamela99. You have several reasons to write hubs, which makes it more enjoyable.
What's you point? Heh, heh, heh...Bob
Boredom and need,lol.;)
I post on HubPages because I:
•Love writing
•Want to be heard (have a voice)
•Need to vent
•Want to interact with others
•Love to share my expertise
•Need, at times, to cause a ruckus (spout off)
•Have to make a point
•Share my beliefs...
And the powers that be have removed one of my hubs because I was a naughty boy.
Oooo!
When friends ask me what I write about I have no trouble explaining. After all, I already say it in my profile. But when they ask me WHY I wrote, I have trouble answering. Your hub helped me realize why. All of the above!... Depending on the kind of day I'm having. lol.
There is no point, diogenes, except to get your response....hehehehe
Me too, Mentalist Acer, me too!
Wow, Twilight Lawns - you hit the jackpot!
So, now that you know why, Glenn - go forth and write!!
Thanks y'all for your comments.
I'm one of those "writing lovers" Elayne. And I love the power the HP capsules give me to create multi-media hubs that are a lot more interesting that reading plain text.
We have the capsule power! That is great to mention PWalker281. Yes, our Hubteam make it a pleasant place to be. Yeah for our high mucky mucks! Thanks for the comment.
I LOVE TO WRITE...I like to make people Laugh, cry, Smile and say I like that! I've enjoyed meeting New People, Writers, from all walks of life...Making New Friends. Interesting Hub Elayne001.
All very commendable and wonderful reasons for writing hub pages. Have enjoyed every single one of them! Keep up the great work. I love hearing your perspective.
Me too b. Malin. Glad to be your friend here on HPs. Thanks for sharing your feelings.
LianaK: I appreciate that and I will try to keep it up, when I have time. 'ofa lahi atu!
A great read and thanks for sharing,
Take care

Glad you liked it Eiddwen. Thanks for commenting. Aloha.
Good article and thanks for sharing.
I do enjoy writing on HubPages! I thought your Other reasons why people write on HubPages was interesting. Nice of you to share other hubbers topics.
I appreciate that crystolite. Thanks for commenting.
I am glad you are enjoying Hubpages too Treasuresofheaven. I am sure there are plenty more reasons to write hubs too.
I love writing on HP and I have made so many wonderful friends, I can't believe it. Now I am aiming to get my pay check a bit bigger.
I am happy to call you one of my HP friends Hello, hello,
I can always count on you to give me great feedback. We are both aiming for bigger $$$, and hopefully that will come too. Thanks again and again.
this was very entertaining and funny.......I enjoy writing because it's a lot of fun and I have too much time on my hands probably too.
Thanks for reading dramatis personae - glad you recognize your reason - and yes, it is fun and sort of addicting (okay, quite addicting!)

I am not sure that HP is the best avenue for my writing. I am thinking about changing to writing notes and putting it in bottles and releasing them into the duck pond which adjoins the Pacific Ocean.
The first few bottles didn't get very far as they sank in the water.
I realize that I was supposed to put a cork in the top of the bottle, but cork is so hard to find now a days. Scotch Tape, Duck Tape, napkins, rocks, and a number of other items also failed.
I am thinking of using those popcorn pieces that come in packages, or maybe some bubble gum, I should probably use sugar free, if I want to do a lot of bottles. It make take a while but I think I can get free of HP.
got to go, another bottle sank...
very funny OpinionDuck. Until you have successful send off, I suggest you stay with Hubpages. hehehe
pretty much ha i love writting and i love getting paid so it was a no brainer when i heard about this site.
Thanks for sharing ironbutler. You have pure intentions for writing, and I am happy for you.
thank you :) believe it or not i was starting to get a little discourged cus no one was looking at my articles until a day or so ago
By sharing on social networks and on blogs, you will get more readers. It takes a while to build it up - don't get discouraged ironbutler. Also read other hubbers hubs and comment like you did mine, and they usually will return the favor. Cheers!
First of all I think this is a very clever way of getting a lot of comments. I think every one of your bullet points applies to me, except may the spout off one, I haven't done too much of that, at least not yet.
We do what we have to do, Sherry, don't we? Maybe you could spout off in one of your hubs, and then I will have you covered (hehehe). Glad you dropped by and left your comments. Aloha!
