How is it that my hubscore dropped from 89 to 74 in less than a day? Any reason for this? Anyone that can tell me why and how this is possible?
Mine do it all the time. I had a hub that was top for ages and hit 96. I did not do a thing to it and still had the same traffic but it fell off the edge of a cliff and hit 70. No reason why it would. It's picking back up now but I have noticed others are dropping off. Strange how they do that to such a vast degree.
They do it all the time, I reckon its about keywords, I have worked on other Sites where you are able to see how keywords relate to your various scores. But Hubpages Hubs generally start at around 50, well mine do and work their way up, so I guess activity makes a difference, and wether the activity is regular enough. Its something everyione would love a correct answer to.
Wghatever your stuff is great so don't think about it. It seems uncontrollable.
Thank you very much. Your advice is appreciated. I was thinking it might have something to do with activity. On publicayion, i run from 50 to where it usually esculates. So i am not going to stress too much.
If you are quite active in the Forums it seems to bump it up too, I think it is a mix of the following.
Good hubs
traffic to them
Keywords that get you noticed.
fans
Forum posts that bring you to the attention of other Hubbers.Hopefully this one may help your score, it brought you to my attention.
P.S now my author score has gone up by 3 and I did nothing yesterday to earn this as I had a headache LOL.
aw write a hub for us about your missus it may top 40 then
i was to write about dirty dancing but she lent the dvd to her sister, i can't call round in my truck to get it because for some reason she doesnt like me. I think she really wants me badly though just like you.
Scores fluctuate. Sometimes I have several Hubs hovering in the 95 - 100 range, and a few days later my highest score is 90.
Don't stress it, it doesn't affect your earnings.
Really ? So i have nothing to worry about ? This will eventually esculate again ?
Unless you've done something silly, like posted a Hub full of duplicate content or included too many links in one Hub - yes it will go up again.
I write all my content myself. Only links i have in is about 3 or 4 per hub, just directing to another hub on the same topic.
I assume you mean 3 or 4 per hub, directing to other Hubs. I'm not sure that multiple links to one Hub would trigger an overly promotional penalty, but I suppose it's possible.
Ah the mysteries of the mysteriouse hub score. It's so weird isn't it? My hubscore is up and down like a yoyo, I am usually around a 92 but it could fall to 89 or jump to 96 in a heart beat, I am still trying to figure it out. I have as yet to get higher then 96.

Following others is a reason of low hub score. Is that the only reason of you to follow others?

For a good number of weeks my hubber score has hovered around the 100 mark. Two days ago it started falling, and as I write this, it is down to 89! If this keeps up, it will be 0 in a week! No rhyme or reason to it, but it leaves me wondering why this is happening. I know...

My author score is now 88. I've been active on the forums, hopping hubs, and answering questions. I haven't had this low of score since when I first started. Does removing poorly performing hubs cause author scores to go down or what is the problem?

There are some days when forums get tired of me, I am here every second.Been tired today so not much activity in questions and forums. I did not leave much comments on the hubs I read either, just a few.HP is penalizing me, I lost 4 points because of this. I hate being below 90, now I'm 88.......I...
