I visit HP frequently for years. Last week I decided to start writing in HP.
Then I created four hubs within five days.
Three of those are not featured and one is still collecting data.
I am thinking to make improvements in these hubs and get featured at least two of these before I publish any new hubs.
I am not very good in writing but anyone can write about anything in HP. So I thought I can share something about the places I visited, movies I watched, programming I know and what I see in media and in public.
My first hub is http://hubpages.com/travel/A-crescent-s … ach-lovers a place I visited by last year.
The hub started with score 65. Oh.. god.. thanks.. I was excited.
After two days featured status became not featured because of quality and suddenly fell the score into 53. arghh..
I wrote this myself and there are no any copied contents from anything but the photos I used from some other websites.
Any ideas why it is not featured because of the quality and suggestions to improve it?
My second hub http://hubpages.com/travel/Gangaramaya- … -Sri-Lanka also in same scenario.
My third hub http://hubpages.com/entertainment/Who-e … -or-Mowgli is different from the other two hubs in concepts. I wrote just what I experienced when I went to a movie.
The hub started with score 46 and not featured for the same reason is quality.
This one is still collecting data http://hubpages.com/entertainment/Bruce … -for-money
I like to use these hubs to learn how to write quality hubs and how to improve the quality of the hubs. Once I reach what I want to achieve by these hubs I'll start to publish new hubs based on what I learn from these.
So please do suggestion experienced hubbers..
From this post alone, I can see that English is not your native tongue. That might be part of the problem. Hubs are to be written in English, and while this does not exclude others from writing here, translation from other languages can leave it rather disjointed and present problems with grammar and sentence structure. My suggestion would be to have someone who is fluent in English look them over, correct any errors with grammar and sentence structure, and republish it.
Thanks.
I am taking that advice.
What do you think the images I've used from other sites?
The pictures are beautiful but it is illegal to steal them from other sites. You should take your own photos. That way, you can show expertise on the topic. But if you can't get them, here is the Learning Center entry about how to get free images.

Since the goal is to write polished, high quality articles, it takes me more than a day to write a hub, and I have a lot of experience and comfort with writing and editing in general, and with writing hubs.

I have been on Hub Pages about a year and I have written about 27 Hubs and they have received close to 5000 views, which I felt was not bad and my status hovers between 82-88. Last week I had about 8 of my Hubs featured, which again seemed ok. Now magically overnight, I have all these codes now...

I see this message when my Hub is rejected: "Heads up! It looks like your Hub is not cleared for publication because it did not pass the Quality Assessment Process. No need to fret; every new Hubber goes through Boot Camp, and all you need to do is improve the Hub so that it meets our quality...

I have recently written hub http://michalwrotter.hubpages.com/hub/P … n-of-2015. Could anyone from experienced hubbers give me a feedback about it please? It does not met the quality and I would like to know why.My personal opinion is: Must be the grammar issue or a picture layout.

For those who are no newbie to HUB Pages you probably share the same frustrations of working for hours on a hub only to be insulted with the friendly heads up message sending you back to a tutorial about writing rich content hubs. It's like were playing some type of hide and seek game to find...

Awhile back the team started unfeaturing articles due to lack of traffic. Many here think this is a bad idea, and I agree. Doing this upsets many writers and has nothing to do with quality or how Google views our work...except for the fact that leaving low or no traffic articles online...
