It seems like you guys are willing to help, and I'm in desperate need of help. Seems like a marriage made in heaven.
I could use some advice on improving the content. I also notice that I don't get many comments, and my overall hub rating is starting to go down.
Any ideas to improve the writing, make it more interesting and of a higher quality would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You.
I will have a look and I'm sure others will be along and do the same
First of all though - find a nice avatar picture. That's always a good way to start.
But don't look to mine as a measurement. I'm stupid
Thanks for the quick reply. I just took your advice, and I really appreciate it.
lol now go back to your profile and tell us who you are - as in a little about you or something aong those lines. It's nicer when someone visits your profile page to actually see something there
Again, don't look at mine, I'm an idiot and couldn't sell myself if I spat gold bars out every time I opened my mouth
First of all, get used to the fact that HubScores fluctuate. That's just how things work here. Second, you might like this Hub, http://hubpages.com/hub/Boosting-HubScores
Ok read one, scanned another.
You could tighten up the content, so that it reads with a little more flow. That said, the content is there, just a little polish.
Break up the capsules with pictures, use headers to separate different sections of the article. The link you inserted in the one I read? Put it into a seperate link capsule and insert it back into the hub, where it's in the most appropriate position.
Read through the following, then read the other articles that are linked within - How Hubpages Works
Check out other hubbers work, so that you get an idea of presentation etc.
I hope that helps - and welcome to hubpages
write what you are passionate about or have interest in check out my site !!!! www.hubpages.com/hub/colorado-camping
Frogdropping has already nicked everything I was going to say! And I think ALL new Hubbers should study the Hubs in that link before writing a single Hub.
Thanks for the wonderful tips, and that link. I've created a better (in my opinion) profile message, and am working on a new hub using the techniques suggested in the links I was referred to in this forum.
Thanks for the help, and I'm sure I'll be coming back often!
Ah - good hubber - I shall go and read it now.
Then return and tell you whether it stands up to frogspection
Edit - that should do nicely. Very good student you are
Looks like you've got things all cinched up here! Just wanted to say welcome to HubPages, kowings!!
Frog, You are like a breath of fresh air you have covered everything just wanted to say terrific job!!!
And to the newest hubber, welcome to Hubpages!!
kowings is my young apprentice. He's my very own pet.
Sorry. I mean my Frog Padawan ...
If being a pet will lead me to a 99 rating and 328 fans, then you can get a leash and send me to obedience school.
Frogs don't do leashes. However, I can stretch my benevolence to letting you be known as a froglet.
Ask away my young padawan. I will tell you all I know from those I learned from on HP. None of which is a secret and all of which involves hard work and effort on your part
Thank you guys so much for the warm welcome. I just edited one of my hubs based on some of the feedback I've gotten here. Would you mind taking a look and letting me know what you think?

Nice! I checked it out, commented. Looks really nice, and you've improved so much so quickly. Keep up the good work!

I'm doing the coolest hub ever - I will consider this one the best of my best because it's a first hand account of my dads battleship, the USS North Carolina, getting torpedoed during Word War 2(It was during the Pacific campaign - Guadalcanal). I wrote this out word for word for my dad before he...

Inspired by fellow hubber Misha and his fabulous success - One hub = $100 a day - I've decided in a good natured way to see if I can get a hub of mine to do that. I usually go after long tail phrases and get a bit of money out of each of my hubs - and I do quite well with that! But change and...
