Can you improve the score on your hub by editing the original hub after it was initially scored?
Scores are empty numbers. It's traffic and earnings which indicate how your hub is doing. Scores increase with time anyway.
Thank you for your reply. I am a new Hubber. I'm still trying to figure out the scoring system works. I've read the FAQ's time and time again, but can't seem to break the 60-80 range.
Don't worry Katrina. I have been here 4 years. I have hubs that rank on the first page of google, get thousands of views a month and yet are given a hub score in 60's and 70's. Just don't worry about HP ranking as long as traffic and google rankings are working. Obviously if I have scores of 70's that are on the first page of searches, those scores mean nothing to google.
@Katrina1981 The HubScore is largely based on the QAP. A score can change each time the Hub is edited and evaluated, so editing your Hubs can be a good strategy to improve these scores.
Keep in mind that HubScore and HubberScore, although they sound pretty similar, are different.
In general a HubScore is unique for each Hub and the HubberScore is for your profile and is largely based on the HubScores from all of your Hubs.
You can find a bit more about each here.

Matthew, thanks a bunch for the feedback! I want to continue to do my best to create quality hubs for everyone to enjoy.
I know the names alone can make the scores a bit confusing sometimes.
Glad to help!
It is good I saw this thread. I kept wondering why my hub score keeps fluctuating. My hubber score too took a four point dipped in four weeks. I was able to upped it when I posted new articles. The link from Matthew is a great help. Thanks much!

Appreciate the help. I knew a little about hubs and scores, but this article was certainly a boost to my knowledge

I have been on Hubpages for almost 3 years now! I have never experienced such a low HubberScore of 43-45, it has always been 70+, even in my worst days. What's even worse for my current situation, it is that this dreadful experience does not seem to have an end, it has been like this for almost 2...

In the past four months I have had increasing views, higher CPMs, have been adding articles (and deleting some losers), good Amazon sales...and my Hubber score has dropped from 97 to 91 in the past few weeks! I don't get it...anybody else seeing this problem or can the team explain...

I have read what HP has posted about HubScores plus quite a few forum postings on the subject over the last several years. If the scores are HP's way of judging quality, then I want to see a higher score if I can get one for a Hub that has potential. But I also throw together some Hubs that don't...

I'm thinking the answer is probably yes?If you have hubs that have been deemed "not featured", for one reason or another, will that factor into lowering your overall score/rating as a HubPages member? Example--let's say your overall rating is 75. If 10 non featured hubs become...

It's often been suggested that one of the factors involved in one's personal HubScore is engagement in the community. So, I tested the theory.Over a period of four weeks I responded to 132 submissions from hopeful contributors most of whom had no clue what HubPages is about. In the normal course, I...

I just feel that the Hubscore/Hubberscore system should be obsolete and rendered useless and be replaced with a new system. This Hubscore/Hubberscore business is keeping everything apart. Instead, we should have a rating system, with 1 being the lowest and 5 being the highest. So 5-star articles,...
