Read and Interact First, Then Connect on Bubblews (Not the Reverse)

I just cashed out for the 22nd time in 3 months on Bubblews--all redemptions paid. I've developed a couple of personal ground rules about connections. They're not Bubblews-TOU or protocol, just my own rubric. But you might want to consider using them.

I won't connect with people who ask me to. That's a given and verboten on Bubblews.

I probably won't connect if don't see that you've interacted beyond connecting. Profile comments aren't paid because they don't count as interaction. Why do you want to connect if you've read nothing of mine? I might have violated certain terms of use. Then you would lose out if I've commented and liked your work and my account gets banned You don't have to read all my content, but you should at least familiarize yourself with me before connecting.  Read and Interact First, Then Connect on Bubblews (Not the Reverse)

How to Add Pictures on Bubblews Google Plus Shares

I share my own and others' Bubblews articles on Twitter, Pinterest and Google Plus more than on Facebook. And a picture is worth a thousand words, right? So I add pictures to my posts. But darn if I could get pictures to add to Google Plus using the share button on the left of the article. The only thing that comes up is the Bubblews default image. And I like to cash in on photo mojo. So to get my own, I had to add manually. Thanks to my friend Marie Anne and some checking I did, I found out how to do it.

What Works for Me on Bubblews

Bubblews is a fun, relatively new get-paid-to-blog site. Following a few simple guidelines, you can submit up to 10 posts a day and Bubblews splits the ad revenue with you 50-50. We read, comment on and share each others' work. To stay current with each other, we connect. Normally, I don't pay much attention to my connection number. But I awoke this morning to a Bubblews connection list of 997 and wondered if I would hit 1,000. I did a few hours ago. First, let me say I'm humbled and thank you. Now let me share what works for me.  1,000 Connections--What Works for Me - News - Bubblews
