What if followers are Trolls who drive down your scores? How many times Vote Down?
If a person is acting as a Troll, and wishes to, how many times can they Vote Down your Hub? Do the Hub Administrators keep an eye on this? It seems with a few good Trolls, a Hubber can be ruined in ratings? Anyone...
Your ratings seem pretty solid. But I'm not sure, you really have to contact them because we don't know! And let me know the answer too, interesting question!
Voting down has very little effect on your hubscore so don't get paranoid about it. A person can vote down your hub as many times as they want but it will only count once and will only have a short 24 hour effect (the same happens for voting up).
Voting up and down is only a small part of how hubscore is calculated and no other hubber has the power to ruin your ratings.
i think trolls are easily identified by hubpages administrators , these latters have pretty good engineer that watch evrything and i really dont inagine a troll would escape their watch

Does anyone have a site or tool to find out how many times a word or phrase is searched?I had been using the free version of Google Adtool for the past year, but for whatever reason it doesn't allow me to use it any longer. Does anyone else have a good site or tool that they use for this purpose?
