The Hubscore is such a mystery to me. Who knows Hubpage's secret metric? I find this fascinating!
Why does my hubscore decrease when I produce more hubs, comment more and raise other hubs that I find interesting? Whoever designed this system is pretty clever don't you think? Are you amazed at the HubPages's programmer and the algorithm he is using?
Hello WhoIsBid ~ I think the goal post keeps changing. There are numerous blogs and forum discussions about this issue. The HubPages score and profile rank seems to have a mind of its own. The more you participate, the lower the score drops. Then take a breather and lay low for a day or so and the score goes up. Then stay away too many days and your score drops again. Plus, the different types of activities can effect your score. Your guess is as good as mine. P.S. Very nice misty colors on your image. Shine a light and we shall see.

What is the mystery behind increasing of hub score when unpublished?We have quite a few good hubs on how hubscore works, but when no one can see the hub, it is unpublished, it says only I can see it, then what raises its hub score? Is it just aging or certain factors like title, tags etc matter?

How do I find the "metric" feature that gives details on my hubs?I know there is a Hubpage function that gives you the total words of your hubs called "Metrics." Okay, I'm a little slow, so where is it and how do I get to it? Thanks in advance.

Hi, I have just published a new hub on how to create a fish shaped celebration cake. I found it quite difficult to explain it was a lot easier to make the cake than to write the hub! Can I have some feed back please as I am not sure if the instructions are clear enough for people to follow and...
