@scheng1 I know HubPages was always a profitable site, and one thing that people always liked about it was the ability to use their own ads and affiliate links. It’s certainly something Meg can look into for the longer term. For now, I believe she wants to leave everything as is.

@swalia I finally received my payment. As happened with others, there was a fee (about 79 cents) deducted from the amount I claimed, but the money is now finally in my PayPal and I am relieved.
