I MADE FROM $1200 HUBPAGES

Wow! Making $12,000 with
HubPages in just over 11
months is an incredible
feat. I would like to say
that it is because I am such
a great writer or because
people come to my Hubs
and buy lots of stuff from
my Amazon capsule. I
would like to say that my
traffic here at HubPages is
phenomenal and that my
AdSense earnings are out
of sight.
But alas, I can't. My writing
is pretty plain, and I am
sure that most would find
the topics that I choose
pretty boring. As far as
traffic goes, it is my goal to
get one visitor per Hub per
day on average. With just
over 160 Hubs, that means
160 visitors is a good day
for me. I haven't even
made the $10 payout for
Amazon yet so that is a
dead end.
So, how can I say that I
have made $12,000
because of HubPages in just
under a year? Let me
explain.

Hub Research
Some of my Hubs are
simply written from my
experience and require
little in the way of
research. But for others,
especially many of the
Hubs for related to stocks,
options, gold and silver, I
will spend some time doing
research. I have spent
almost 10 hours of
research for one of my
Hubs in the past. I haven't
spent that much time in a
while but it has been
known to happen.
Well in August of 2009, I
was working on several
Hubs related to investing in
stocks and was focusing on
stocks that would seem to
be good in the event of
inflation. I was looking at
various industries in the
inflation trade and wrote
about steel companies, oil
companies, etc. One of the
sectors that I wrote about
was silver miners.
In doing this research, I
took the time to read
many of the annual reports
for the companies I
discussed. One of these
companies was Silver
Wheaton. I was very
impressed with the business
model for this company.
Essentially you can think of
Silver Wheaton as a silver
distributor and not a
miner. The company will
get its supply of silver from
other miners (such as gold
miners) which generate
silver as a by-product of
gold production. Silver
Wheaton will lock in
supplies at a fixed price as
sell it at market price,
buying at wholesale and
selling at retail. This is an
excellent business model in
a rising silver market like
the one that has existed
recently.
I Was Impressed
I was so impressed with the
business model that I felt
that I wanted to invest in
the stock. On the day that I
published the Hub on silver
miners, Silver Wheaton
(SLW) closed at $10.07. I
didn't have enough in my
retirement account at the
time and didn't invest that
day, but I followed the
stock closely.
About three-and-a-half
months later, I purchased
my first shares of SLW at a
price of $15.25. I continued
to add shares and have
traded the stock using
collars
since December of 2009.
The stock has since run up
to close at over $35 per
share. Because the stock
has run up so much in the
last month as has the price
of silver, I plan on cutting
back my exposure and
selling all of my shares
when options expiration
occurs next Friday. I
anticipate that all of my
covered calls will be
exercised. When that
happens, my total profit
will be just over $12,000.
