Is this common? When I tried to set up topics/categories awhile back, there was some kind of error, and only two of the topics I assigned went through, and the Hubs that I assigned to them didn't stick.
Now all of a sudden, I have a bunch of Topic/Categories that I never selected, and my articles seem to be moving from one category to another at random!
It doesn't bother me, The topics/categories are OK, and the sorting kinda-sorta makes sense! But I just never know where to expect to find my articles when I visit from day to day!
One day my Jackie Chan article is in my "Love" category (which I never chose) and another day, he is banished to "Friends" (which I also never chose!) LOL!
It's quite an adventure!
I think based on the tags it will be changing You might have assigned the tags for those hubs that's why it keeps changing

Hello,I have been "hubbing" so to speak for a couple of months now, and I am wondering the best ways to get more volumes of hubs.Is it a good idea to do say 5-10 hubs on a similar topic? Would hubpages allow this?

Four months ago some of us noticed that certain topics were ill-distributed on the new vertical sites. Now that the sites are up and running more or less successfully, is it now time to rekindle the discussion / negotiations on creating a couple of additional sites to better host certain...
