Hey Hubpages community! I have only been making hub pages for a little less than a month now, and have 8 hubs that have all been approved. However, I can't seem to get my average hub score above 76 (ranging from 69 to 82). If any of you veteran hubbers could guide me in the right direction of bringing this score up, I would be honored, indebted, and obliged to visit your hubs (and click some stuff, if you know what I mean). I know I could add product links, or some videos, etc., but all that seems extraneous. Is that really what it takes to get a higher hub score?
Hi - I don't really have much advice to give you concerning the hubscore, which is shrouded in mystery. I'm writing because I saw your offer to "visit your hubs (and click some stuff, if you know what I mean)"
If you mean what I think you mean, I must advise you to NEVER EVER do that. It's completely against the rules and a sure way to get yourself banned not only from HubPages, but also from Adsense.
I have noticed my lack luster hub scores have been gradually increasing as more people make comments.

Evidently, hubber score has absolutely nothing to do with earnings. Yesterday was my biggest earning day EVER on HP, yet my hubber score is the lowest it's been in quite a while. That's okay - I'll take high earnings over a high score any ole day!

I really have not been too concerned about scores till recently since that darn HubPro was created. I think HubPro is totally done the wrong way. Editing should NOT be done without our consent and should NOT be done IN our hubs. On all the other sites I have written for, editing suggestion were...

I took a hiatus for awhile from Hub Pages! However, in the past week or so, I have added new hubs participated in forums, asked a question or two, participated with the Hub Hopper, have read some Hubs, yet my Hubber Score is lower than it was when I was doing nothing. I don't get it!

Would it be appropriate to say: A hubber score of 85 and a average hub score of 65 is a failure?I just do not know what is OK or not.

We've been telling each other for years that our Hubber scores are not important. We were wrong. From HubPages Weekly:"""Congrats, Your Article Is Featured! Now, Here’s How To Keep It That Way...So, your article needs to have some search traffic to stay Featured. The amount of...
