Hubpages has changed so much that I reduced my efforts there to a very minimal maintenance and occasional new articles. I still visit the site daily, and am deliberating on whether I am a good fit for the site as it is run at this time.
Squidoo To Hubpages ::Blink::
This entire section will change because of the huge news that Squidoo sold all its content to Hubpages.
It was a sudden announcement and it is a scrambling sort of move, since all will be finished by October 2014. Ilona1 on Hubpages will remain, but IlonaGarden on hubpages is the new profile necessary for the transfer of all the Squidoo pages. There will be automatic redirects.
Watch this page for developments!
IlonaGarden Hubpages
I had a nice little blog that announces new lenses, lens related news, and keep tabs on my work over at Squidoo. However, since the name of it included the now defunct Squidoo I started a new blog. Easy enough to do on Blogger.
I’ve enjoyed my time in the Squidoo community and have worked VERY hard on getting a presence there. It has deeply cut into my other projects, but like they say, it is a bit addictive.
Here is a list of my lenses. There are now 180 published lenses, and more in the works. They have been producing income. so while the original purpose of providing good linkage to my sites has not really materialized, the side benefit of finally getting a bit of income for my writing (and learning lots about online marketing and making good copy!) has made this a fun pastime and a useful part of my online work.

Changes At Hubpages Means Lower Income For Me
