Anyone else see their Hub score go up and down on a regular basis?
I keep going from an 83 to a 78, then back up again over 80.
Yes your hubscore will fluctuate for a number of reasons - see the Help section and Learning Center for more details. Mine goes up very slowly then comes back down too quickly. It's slightly annoying because of the unknowns involved but I think over time you'll average out at a reasonable score.
Hubscores going up and down happens to just about every hubber I should think so you're not alone! The best thing to do is to keep your content good and clean, socialise as much as you can, leave comments and ask questions then in heory your hubscore should keep high.
Do you know if, over time, the hub score for individual hubs stops fluctuating, at least to the extent that it does when it is new? Thanks!
Yes, Especially here lately. It will fluctuate up to 5 points from day to day. Their are many factors why it does this.
Yes, my hub score is steady changing between 76 and 84. There are so many factors decide the score so I think it is normal.
Ya, a few of my hubs were above 80 yesterday and have dropped to 75 overnight.
But I'm still very new here so I'm not that concerned about it really.
Also, your hubscore is a direct indicator of traffic to your hub...so obviously it'll fluctuate with traffic.
When your hubs are fresh and are being read here, your hubscore will rise. Once they become old, it all depends upon referrals and organic traffic.
So, Try promoting your hubs on other platforms too coz only that's going to give you true organic traffic...something that Google loves.

So, is anyone else obsessed with their hubscore? I watch it go up and down and I become obsessed. I hit 91 once and I returned to the 80's again and dream of the day I could return to a higher number. Numbers, scores, and grades are so silly but I find it fascinating at how fixating...

I'd like to suggest we get rid of Hubber Score - and perhaps even Hub Scores. They:- are constantly misunderstood;- cause a lot of upset and grief in the forums; and- encourage newbie Hubbers to direct their efforts in entirely wrong directionsFor instance, I've known newbie Hubbers stop...

Has ANYONE else notice their hubscore decreasing?For a consecutive three years, my hubscore was in the 90s, now it is in the high 80s. I am completely nonplussed at this. Although my hubscore has decreased, my earnings have increased. Hmmmmm.

Just gaging anyone else's earnings here. I just checked google adsense and I have earned 64 dollars in 18 months. I've only written 19 Hubs and most of them don't get any traffic. Any thoughts?

Hi--me again.. I was reading that there is a 'nofollow' generated on hubs with scores of 50 or under, so I've un-published all of mine that were down in that range. The result is that my total hub count is now way down, so that instead of 10 more hubs to 100, I've now got to...

My hub scores range from 65 to 87 as of the last time I looked. My average is 73. To me it seems like I have a "C" average. I'm disappointed and discouraged. I am doing everything that is recommend to get a good score.It is disheartening not to get a feedback. For...
