Could it be? Is Demand Media finally waking up to the fact that no one
- okay, almost no one - likes their Demand Deals offerings? Let alone the incessant emails about the latest
deal - which, by the way, you can unsubscribe to by contacting the help
desk. I, for one, hope the answer is a resounding, Yes!

We at Demand Studios Review have been keeping a close eye on HubPages since
they announced they would introduce subdomains to try and fight the impact Google Panda has had on their
traffic. It is a move that no other big name Panda victim has tried.
Google’s Matt Cutts contacted HubPages CEO Paul Edmondson to advise him on how he

I have been noticing a trend when it comes to which writers are ending
up in the Demand Studios Writer
