Currently sitting on a Hubscore of 88 with 19 fans and 1 hub published (hubs score is 77). Does it exponentially get harder to increase Hubscore i.e is getting from 88 to 89 easier than getting from 89 to 90?

I'm not really qualified to answer since I have yet to reach 90, but I have a question. Why do you only have 1 hub after three weeks? You might publish a couple more and see what it does for your score.

Really its only two weeks because I signed up on the day I left for a holiday for a week. Ive been intentionally keeping my hub count at 1 because I want to try and achieve a high hubscore with this single hub just for the hell of it really. Also I wan to see how many fans/traffic/hubscore I can get from this single hub.

I don't really think it's difficult to get 90 or over. I'd suspect if you added another Hub or two you may reach 90. There's not much for the "measuring system" to go on if you don't add anything else. Besides, one thing that contributes to the overall score is activity; and no writing means not much of the "right" kind of activity (even if you do read, vote, and participate in the forums).
HubScores go up and down, though, so you can't really pay a lot of attention to them if they're in some decent range. Mine has gone as high as a 100 and as low as low 90's, so that's how much they can fluctuate.Write more Hubs, Jackson. No pain, no gain as they say!

Jackson, I'm not sure what "KK" means - but I guess it's ok.

I think it does matter how many hubs you posts. My highest score has been 94 and it does go up and down.

Original content, a steady flow of traffic, and maybe more than one hub, and you'll claw your way into the 90s.
Anything 80+ is good though. And as long as you're over 75 it means you're doing something right.

Well when I joined, a hubber told me that breaking 90 was like breaking wind! The more beans you got the easier it is!
It seems like you're a bit short in the beans department; as you're score has now gone down to 87.
Did no one tell you that you loose a point for asking?

I had to do it. I was getting to jealous of all the hubbers I kept on seeing with a score of 88, 87's getting on my nerves. Hopefully this hub is enjoyed
and hopefully it gets me over 90.

The bean thing makes sence also. Yeah, I am starting to come over to not caring about score. However, not caring about scores will mean I'll have to care about something else.

Well get a dog. Or a fish. Or a tomato plant. Or a lemon tree.

I like the lemon tree idea. Could be a potential entertainer or place where I can ponder. I might add that to my hub. Although tomato plant is very unique idea.

My "nugget of ancient wisdom" would be: If you care about your writing the score you want will follow.
