I remember this was asked some time ago but I can't find the discussion.
Is it possible to change our sub-domain username ie. from luisegonzalez.hubpages.com to XYZ.hubpages.com and will this be reflected in search engines? In other words, will the name change show in search engines results instead of our old username.
No. I would change mine if I could. You need to start an entire new account to do it.
You have never been able to change your username on HubPages. I know of two cases where it was allowed, in very special circumstances, but that was a long time ago.
I can't see why you'd want to change it - the URL's of all your Hubs would change so they'd lose all their rank in the search engines.
LuisEGonzalis,
You cannot change your user name but you can open a second acct. and choose another name. Go to the following link: http://hubpages.com/faq/
In the contens on the right, click on "Account Administration - Publishing" and scan down to number 5.
I've thought about changing mine to Spunky The Wonder Hubber. But I haven't made a final decision yet.
Now that's an interesting statement... Which do you think are mine, pray tell.
You know, I know, but no one else needs to know right now.

I was invited to be moved on new subdomain in response to my interest in the blog. I have no clue what will happen. Whatever, how are you people choosing your new name?

I was wondering if backlinking my sub domain will help me rank better in the search engines. I was thinking the more backlinks I have the more link juice would flow to my article? Or will backlinking my subdomain only help me rank for my name ie Nexusx2?

Ok, so since the Penguin update I have sat here listening to lots of Hubbers complain of loss of traffic. Now we're not talking a little fluctuation in numbers, we are talking 80% gone overnight! For people who use Hubpages as a form of income, this is a serious issue. Up until...

Hi,My username is 'Rickrideshorses' and I've wondered for some time if this has had an adverse effect on my overall traffic. I didn't think too much about the username when I picked it but now I'm concerned that people might either be put off by the username for whatever reason, they may not click...

Hello,I'll give you a little background to the story here. I write on hubpages under the alias of Joe Macho. It was the first thing to pop in my head, and I find it more comfortable to write under this name than my real one. My problem now, is that I was contacted by another hubber and asked...
