I have 21 not featured hubs, any recommendations on how to get them active again.
This is a matter of simple periodic maintenance. I might have just one slip or sometimes a few more. I simply change the title and the first photo and it begins to process the new information. It's just a matter of a little time and it's back to being featured. Good luck.
If your hub is not featured for quality, then you need to go through it carefully, particularly to make sure you don't have sales links or capsules that are not directly related to the content of your hub. Also make sure your pictures are high quality, and check your grammar and spelling. Check the content to see if you can add more pertinent information. In other words, do everything you can to make the hub better.
If your hub is not featured for traffic, you can check it for quality, like above. When you edit the hub, it will have a chance again to get traffic. Try to use words in the hub and especially the title that will help the searcher find the hub. In other words, think about what words someone would type in a search engine to find out more about the topic. But sometimes, it can just mean that you did not pick a topic that people are interested in. In that case, no matter how awesome the hub is, it will not get traffic. I would try a couple of times, but then, I would give up and move on to another topic.
To Millionaire tips: Excellent reply to the above question. I will try it in my not featured hubs.

On a different account, somewhat "experimental" account, one of my Hubs is unfeatured. Generally my inclination was to unpublish it and move it or just delete it. But I kept it and put it in a Hub group. Meaning, if the Hubs before and after it get traffic, possibly the unfeatured one...

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

Will somebody address my concern. I have written plenty of Hubs that were featured for some time. When I looked into my account, I have noticed that those hubs are no longer categorized as Featured. I have made Featured Hubs. Why is that?
