Hi friends,
My main aim to improve my hub profile score, after joining and just publishing 3 hubs my profile score was 81 but due to some reasons one of my hub counldn't published due to an advertising link, so i delete but my hub profile score went down. And now there is one un featured, hub in my profile, is it have any -ve impact on my hub profile score? Should I delete it?
Hubscore basically does not matter. If it is unfeatured for traffic just make a random edit (or improvement) and republish. If it is for quality post for advice on the forum. or juts leave it unfeatured, it may still get some traffic and us doing you no harm.
I don't think it's healthy to delete it. Hubberscore depends on many things, from the quality of the content you write and the views you get. Even if you don't publish it as hub it shows up under the amount of hubs your have written. Try to write another hub with amazing quality with polls/images/callouts and quizzes I'm sure it will get featured.
If you have a blog of your own, consider moving it to your blog. There are two reasons. First, low traffic on HubPages is as much HP's problem as yours. Google distrusts content farms and SERPs are suppressed by them. You may get better results along with a freer hand on your blog. The other reason is that deciding when to feature and not to feature hubs is an erratic practice here with little or no transparency from the admins. You can do a lot of good work and have it shut off without an explanation. Unless you get tons of traffic, it hardly seems worth butting your head against the wall for.
I would take David's advice. This is what I have done with a lot of mine. A few I've updated, because they weren't topics I dealt with on any of my sites or blogs.
"If one of my hubs is not featured, should I delete it?"
Frankly, it would depend on what kind of mood I'm in when I discover it.

How many times do you edit an idled Hub before deleting it? Or do you keep it idled so that links to it are still good? Also, for what reasons do you either leave it idled or delete it or still try to fix it? I have one Hub which I've edited a few times, and this last time after I edited it, it...

One of my hubs was recently idled. It wasn't performing well, and had zero traffic for some while. In my quest for a Google Ad-sense account, should I or should I not delete it?

I recently had a hub un-featured for engagement, as the half-circle indicates. I think this is an unfair practice and should be eliminated entirely. Here's why I feel this way:Our hub traffic is often affected by the time of year, holidays, seasons, and current events to name a few. If left alone,...

If a hub is not featured does that mean that it doesn't get any search engine traffic from Google or other search engines?

For months I published no hubs and my hubber score sat around 96, in the last month I published three hubs, all of which are featured and each time I published one my hubber score dropped by two points, it's now down to 90. Is this how HP rewards us for our hard work? Correct me if I'm wrong but...
