Do you think the instructions will be easy to follow?
You might want to rework your first sentence To be honest, I'd delete it. Writers often begin their articles with one of those generalisations that mean not very much. I'm probably guilty of it myself. If you read a lot of hubs, you'll notice it more and more.
"These days the internet is becoming increasingly more popular."
"More people, these days..."
"It's common to find more widgets in homes..."
And so on. Avoid them at all costs.
@Sarah,
Yeah, it looks absolutely fine and it is going very well with the flow?
It is smooth and crisp to read.
What exactly are you looking for?
Is it not as per the publishing standard?
First, fix your bio. You are allowed up to 25 different bios and you should make maximum use of that. So if you're writing about real estate, your bio talks about your real estate experience (but doesn't mention motherhood). If you're writing about toys, talk about your experience as a mother (but doesn't mention real estate). And so on.
I agree with Raggededge, your first sentence is too general. Bear in mind that your reader can't see your summary - they'll see it on the Google search result, but it doesn't appear on the Hub.
When a reader arrives on a Hub from Google, they're looking for an answer. In this case, they want to know how to make slime. You have one or two sentences to convince them you're going to give them that recipe - otherwise, they'll click back to Google and check out the next result. Waffle, even for a sentence or two, and you've lost them.
The Hub is probably too short, too. I'm sure you've gathered by now that the secret of success is to get your Hub transferred to a niche site, and that's not likely to happen for very short Hubs. Aim for 800 to 1,500 words. I can see how it would be hard to find more to say about how to make the slime, but perhaps you could add something about where to buy slime if they don't want to make it, and you could also add one or two more videos. Also could you say something about what to use it for?

When you read another person's hub, do you typically read the entire article?I recently published a hub which I intended to be humorous. The humor was in the final sentence in which the real meaning of the hub was changed; a twist, you might call it. Judging from the lack of response, I...

Hi everyone,Since Google's updates these past couple of months, I've noticed a significant traffic drop (about 20%). Every time I gain some traction and hope, it's a case of going back two steps again. I'm sure I'm not alone! I thought it might be a good idea to start a healthy discussion here to...

Yesterday I sent in my handy inexpensive gym hub to Calorie Bee. And it got declined. So any ideas on how to improve would be great. I'll try to resubmit it toward the end of the year like around winter. Here's the link: https://hubpages.com/health/Handy-Free- … or-Anytime

I'm looking for a sentence or two that are obviously spun from an article spinner program. I've been told they are easy to pick out, but want a few solid examples please.

Hi Hubbers,I'd like some help with passing the Quality Assessment Process. Will you please give feedback on my article? What can I do to improve? Do I need to add more content?

Does anyone have any definitive information on this as the SEO advice is rather mixed.Some say that googlebot looks for keywords in the first sentence. It also relates to the text displayed on the SERP. Of course there may be negatives in terms of keyword stuffing and 'gaming'. I have noticed that...
