Football Hubbers Network
ARE YOU A KEEN FOOTBALL BLOGGER? IF SO LEAVE A COMMENT BELOW, HIT THE 'END' KEY ON YOUR KEYBOARD TO BE INSTANTLY TAKEN TO THE COMMENTS SECTION
I think it would be a good idea to link and network all the key contributors of Football Hubs and create a more rounded view.
Those interested in forming a Mutually beneficial network of writers, who share each others hubs via Hubpages, Twitter and Facebook.
by Sharing each others hubs, we can ensure we extend their reach, currently we are making the snow shake, work together and we can make avalanches. The hardest part of any hubs progress is the first stage the more hits, likes and shares it gets, the more viral it becomes and its reach hits a multiplier effect each time.
Imagine we have several writers each sharing the same hub at the same time, focusing on 1 hub from each member a day, or the most relevant hub of the day that readers will find useful, we can then ensure it gets the initial spark it needs to start becoming viral (Its like jump starting a car by getting people to push it until you can get the engine going and it can become self sufficient) Hubs need the exact same help.
Any orchestrated hub promoting will be done through here and will only be done for relevant hubs that will be of benefit to potential readers.
I actually enjoy reading some other Football bloggers hub's too, so by having a network, i can quickly connect with people who are interested in the same things, without having to trawl high and low for them.
The Euro 2012 coverage was a success, with several users of the Network covering all Post match and Pre match analysis and tournament and Football musings in general.

The Benefit of Sharing Hubs
The Benefits of sharing are felt by BOTH the sharer and the person whose hub is being shared. Sharing the hubs of others will increase the traffic to your own page in addition to getting you 10% of the views from that page. Sharing can also be a quid pro pro situation, a share is likely to result in a Share back, Hubpages is all about the karma.
Here is a Hub which demonstrates the benefits 1 Hubber experienced from Sharing
http://jainismus.hubpages.com/hub/How-Traffic-to-My-Hubs-Boosted-by-Sharing-Hubs-of-Other-Writers
http://zsobig.hubpages.com/_kw4v2p8x2gse/hub/ways-how-you-can-support-your-favourite-hubbers
Below are stats from a hub of mine which was shared by Internpete, the traffic shows that he brought in a minimum of 50 viewers to my Hub, with his share alone. Sharing is just one simple click of a button and say if 10 people shared it, that'd be 500 views instantly. If we do this for each other, we can almost guarantee our new hubs get 500+ views from each other alone.
Pete had around 150 Hubpages followers around the point of this share, if Pete had 300 Hubpages followers, then it is likely that he will have brought 100 people to my page, the more followers you have, the greater an audience you have to click on your own hubs and the ones which you share...
THEREFORE MORE FOLLOWERS = MORE PEOPLE READING YOUR HUB WHICH YOU MAY HAVE PUT SOME HARD JOURNALISTIC WORK AND RESEARCH WRITING AND ALSO MORE MONEY VIA THE EARNING SCHEME ON HUBPAGES

The Effect of Sharing (Petes Share)
How to get 200 Twitter followers in 10 minutes
on Twitter if you search for something; i searched for "MUFC" or "Manchester United" and then click 'People' in the top left, it will then display all the people who have MUFC in their profile and you dont have to click their profile first to get the follow button, the follow buttons are all in blue down the right, this way you can mass add hundreds of people in minutes, just go down the list adding people with simillar interests, added like 1000 in 10 mins work and then a certain percentage of them follow you back, definetly worth doing to build an audience.

Effectiveness of Google+ Shares
How to Build a Google+ Following
Google+ Explained
Ok so lets imagine i write a hub about Chelsea FC, i'm gonna want to share it with as many Chelsea FC Supporters are possible, these are the people inparticular, who will appreciate the Hub.
To do this, type in 'Chelsea FC' or 'A Chelsea players name' and it will bring up any article or status about Chelsea FC. On some of the articles, you will find comments from other Google+ users, you can generally assume that 90% of the commenters will support Chelsea FC themselves, therefore all you need to do is;
1. Hover over their username on the comment or like
2. Select Add
3. Then decide which group of your contacts you want to put them in (this is called circles). I custom made my circles to separate between Club Supporters.
Now any Status or Hub that you share, will automatically get sent to the members within your circle and their newsfeeds and the feeds of anyone who searches for the term Chelsea etc. This way it is quite possible to get around 1000 people in your circle, to share your hubs with.
DONT FORGET TO PLACE AD's ON YOUR HUBS
If it is appropriate, make sure to put EBAY and Amazon capsules on your hubs. I've witnessed greater success from the EBAY hub but i think there is potentially a greater income to be earned from Amazon but hard to earn with it, so that is reall your preference.
I have 100,000+ Page views, but only began to start placing ebay capsules in the few thousands hits since and have been making $1 a day just from the ebay capsules from 1-2k page views a day, i hate to think what i could have gotten from the 100,000k without ebay capsules.
Referral Trackers
These are a small piece of code thats placed into your links, which can then be used to identify where traffic has come from, it is a great way to measure the effectivity of shares. They will also ensure that you get your share of the impressions on that Hub.
You get money when people click on your ad's from Ebay/Amazon/Hubpages or Google Ads. So its very nice when somebody clicks on your ad's ;)
