How important is the hub score (the ones next to individual hubs)? And how are they calculated?
Some of my hubs that have a score in the mid 70s attract more organic views from google while the ones in the mid 90s get very few page views? Why is that? What is the point of a high scoring hub?
The hubscore is how a hub meets the criteria of Hubpages. It is an internal thing and nothing to do with how a hub is performing in the real world. But, the hubs that have very high hubscores are sitting ducks to plagiarizers. So, are our hubs that are marked as "hot" or "best." Thank goodness the new profile do not highlight our best hubs anymore.
I have only one hub out of over a hundred hubs that keeps getting 100 hubscore. It was performing well before, but not "the" highest performing hub. A few months ago, it disappeared from engine search. Why? Because it was copied numerous times and I didn't know about it. I just recently filed so many DMCA complaints, but my traffic have not returned to normal to date.
Oh, to answer your questions:
1) How important is the hubscore on our hubs? - Not important at all.
2) How are they calculated? - Only HP knows.
I wish you the best here on Hubpages, sweetzara. What a sweet name! Cheers!

What are some sure fire ways to nudge up your hub score?
I got like 10 posts stuck in the mid 70's that I want to get to 80 so I can submit them to networks. What are some surefire ways to increase your score without changing everything? I use the same format on two hubs with similar subjects and one gets 93 and the other gets 77...so frustrating.

FIXED: Stats on individual hubs not loading.
On some of my hubs (but not all) when I click the stats button, a message pops up: "Something went wrong. Please try again. And when you get a chance, you may want to report this issue in the Hubpages forums."

What's the point of a hub score or hubber score?
I've been on here for a few years, and I guess I never really understood the point of these scores. They don't seem to provide any real value to the user and I can't convince myself that they add value because they fluctuate so much.What's the point? Am I supposed to use these scores to tell me...
