      My highest Hubscore is 100, but it "yo-yos" a lot, sometimes dropping to the high eighties.
      I ask people to vote on my hubs (up or down) if they think they are of benefit to them. The high scoring hubs are "How To" guides, so I often wonder whether viewers vote them down out of spite if the information provided doesn't help them, and this has some influence on the score!

   Funny you should ask.  Until recently I had several at 100 and many more in the 90's.  Then came the time about 6-8 weeks ago where any little edit caused a huge drop in the score.
   
   2 Days ago my highest scoring hub was at 98.  I fixed two Amazon capsules that were displaying erroneous ads, and the score dropped to 76 for my trouble. It is also my best producing hub. Go figure.

         I think there is some sort of rhyme/reason, but we don't know what it is, so I'm with you on watching them more for amusement.  I think relevancy has a lot to do with the highest scoring hubs. I also think HP pushes those to the top in regard to current ad campaigns.  My highest was 98 late afternoon, then I made a few edits and it dropped to 97.

    I have one at 100 and several more in the 90s. Hub score can be on a roller coaster at times, those you think are average go nuts and score 90 or more, others that you're really proud of nosedive and never return!
    So I'd say be aware of the hub score and try and improve your hubs if possible - don't dilute them - and don't pin your life on them, don't get depressed if certain hubs you feel are the bees knees stay fixed in the 70s or 80s.
    The secret formula for hub score? It remains a secret and a mystery and probably won't ever be revealed!

    Along with most folks here, a couple at 100 and the rest in the mid-90s and up, but that's after a general trend downward from a few weeks ago. I don't think hub score really matters, does it? We don't know how it is determined, we don't know what it means, we have no knowledgeable control over it.
    
    What does matter is traffic. Because traffic means two important things:
    
    1)  People are reading your writing
    
    2) You're earning a few pennies
    
    Surely either one or both of these (depending on your priorities) are all that really matters?

    It's comforting to read that scores are doing some kind of yo-yo dance.  Mine too.  They start off lower than I think they should be but then rise up like bread dough.  They have yet to sink (cross my fingers).  I have noticed that when I write about a subject that is less covered and use words that describe it that are even less common, the score comes out really high.  My Professional Victims piece is an example and it has kept rising.

    I am not sure how any of this works I have 11 hubs the highest score was 88 but it's now 80 I have had a hub rated 75 drop to 58? If I go on vacation the scores drop.
    
    Why can not hub pages describe the criteria they score on and if the scores are not relevant why have them? It appears when I enhance one hub it rises but the others fall?
    
    I rather focus on new content and enhancing my income rather than tweaking articles to keep up a score. I can imagine the time if I had 50 hubs to adjust the articles to maintain a score .
    
    Is it also my impression that the site favors short articles with pics and videos over chapters in a story? Thus Game of Thrones or Hunger Games would have a low score because no photos and vids?
    Very Confused!

       Solaras gives you good advice.   One thing to look at is the section at the top right hand corner of your Hubs (in edit mode).  These are the "Stellar Hub" guidelines and the more boxes you can tick, the more likely it is that your HubScore will rise.

    Glad you asked this question.  I never noticed much, but now when I look, I see a 92 on one "content rich" article that has 20,000 some views and a 92 on a short piece of fiction (just a story without the "content rich" thing going on), that has a measely 231 some views, and THAT one also has a 92.0  I really don't get it.  All my other hubs are in the 70s or lower.  I haven't written an article here in months. I guess having never gotten 100 is a big disincentive, but then I never really noticed, so I guess I'm just not enthused to write here anymore, but I like being on the website! A huge "yay" and congratulations to the people who do write and get great scores and who do get a bit of an income. It just doesn't work for me.

          I'm sure there are veteran hubbers with over 100,000 views on some of their hubs.  My highest traffic hub has over 90,000 views, and that's over a period of almost 4 years.  There are hubbers that gain that many views in much less time. That particular hub is nothing special, but it ranked very high for a couple of years, and it's on an evergreen, highly searched topic.  Now it's moved down in the SERPS.

          Nick,
          Well, 20,000 is over 2 1/2 years. That means that only about 700 views a month.  I imagine lots of those are just robots and not readers. 
          
          What did I do to drive traffic to that article? Nothing.  It's my "How to Publish a Children's Book" article, and it's getting outdated now.  I try to update it, but the technology in the ebook publishing field is moving FAST! 
          
          I wrote that article for a contest hubpages had.  I tried very hard to do everything right to at least win a little prize in the contest and didn't.  The title drives the traffic I think and some of the content.  I really have no idea.  On our business website where we have online learning games and sell educational software, I can see what people are clicking and know where they're coming from and how they got there.  Here, I have no idea.
          
          I make a paltry sum of around $2 a month here.  UGH!  When I have time, I'm going to take some of my stuff that ties together and put it in an ebook and try to sell it that way. I asked hubpages staff if I needed to take my my articles off here, but from what I'm getting, if you publish here first, you can publish somewhere else.  I might have that mixed up, so don't quote me on that one.  So traffic and scores don't mean a whole boat load of anything unless you don't need the money and just get enjoyment and gratification from just being published.
