    As it says in the FAQ: "HubKarma is a score that reflects the degree to which you link to others' Hubs and to Topic pages in your own Hubs. Hubs that point to other relevant, high quality Hubs enhance readers' experience on HubPages and improve HubPages credibility as a trusted resource. HubKarma has some influence on your Hubber Score and is on a 0-100 scale. The link suggestion tool makes linking to other Hubs and Topic pages easier."

    And hey- it's better to ask a question than to simply go without knowing its answer big_smile

    After you publish a hub, you have the option of clicking "suggest links", which will act to highlight relevant phrases that you can click on. Clicking on a phrase will pop up a list of hubs that might be pertinent, at which point you can add the link to the keyword phrase; if someone clicks it, they will be directed to the underlying hub. As you refer to solid hubs in various hubs of your own, your hubkarma score will rise in recognition of the fact that you allott some of your precious space to facilitating traffic through to quality hubs. In theory, this will make the user reflect positively and spread good karma for everyone.
