More Hubpages and other things

So, I really do think if I actually put in 110% into HubPages, I could be really on to something. It's a lot less work than running a blog and I find it easier to promote, since it's just literally sharing links of articles. At this point, I really don't have any excuse not to give it an honest effort, you know?
Something I learned from Wordpress and blogging is a lot of traffic comes from actually building connections with others and having everyone naturally/organically promote each other.
Since I have a lot of data to kill (I'm not actually going to kill it on purpose), I'm going to work on HubPages tonight and this weekend. I'm more or less going to take what I've learned elsewhere and apply it to this.
Facebook groups are really useful, so I'm going to further check that out.
And, well, I'm going to start being more active on the platform.
I also have to keep the Hubs coming out. I will start organizing topics and taking notes. Try to be consistent, ect.
Alsoooo we got the phones! LG Tribute HD x2. Including the first month bill, and the 2 phones, it was $230 out the door. That includes Unlimited Talk, Text, and LTE Data, ANDDDD 16g of hotspot wifi data up to 8 devices! Before we switched, we were paying $35 for each line with Virgin Mobile. And, of course it wasn't an unlimited plan. We only had some 300 minutes and not eve 1g of LTE data. The phones were about $70-75/each and the bill is $75/m for the family plan IF you do auto-pay. So, more or less, we're paying the same amount of money, but for a lot more. Just the wifi-hotspot alone is worth like...$75+ a month. I've been wanting to switch providers for a while but the initial investment is kind of hard to come up with in 1 shot - and that's really for a mid-range phone ON SALE. The retail on the phones we got are like $129-159ish. I just kind of got lucky yesterday when I called around the different stores in walking distance from where I live. And, let me tell you, I'm really enjoying it. Not only can I skip Starbucks, but we're saving a shit ton of money in the long run.
