What does it take to for your hub to be nominated and selected as the hub of the day?
This question goes to all who have enjoyed a successful stay on HB by producing hubs that earned this status
One of my Hubs got the Hub of the Day nod back in September or October of last year (I forget exactly)... and I wish I knew "what it took" to get that nod so I could do it again, as it remains my most-viewed Hub!
All I can say is ... write the best Hubs you can and hope you get lucky.
Hubs of the Day are chosen from new HubPages writers' work. The following is from the HubPages FAQ:
"The Hub of the Day is an exemplary Hub chosen by the HubPages Staff to be featured on the signed-in homepage for one day and in the carousel of the signed-out homepage for ten days. Staff are looking for Hubs that contain interesting and useful subject matter, high-quality and grammatically correct writing, and beautiful formatting. A Hub of the Day accolade will be displayed on the Hub itself, as well as in the Hubber’s accolade box. To see previous Hubs of the Day, visit the archive. For more information on the Hub of the Day, check out our Blog post."
I wondered the same as you and had to look it up because I had Hub of the Day two days ago and I was very pleasantly surprised.
Unique topic you know a lot about, good research that gives readers the info they need, well written text with interesting illustrations and links. I just won two this month.

I just received an email congratulating me for one of my hubs being selected as "Editor's Choice". It didn't tell me which hub was selected however and I checked my stats and there is no new hub labelled "editor's Choice." Does anyone know how long it takes to show up?

Just curious, one of my hubs, selected as a hub of the day some time ago has been my top performing one for quite a while. However, it does seem odd to me that hubs of the day are not automatically selected as Editors Choice Hubs as well! Anyone else ever wondered why this is? If not, would...

I'm sure this was obvious to everyone else, but I'm slow on the uptake when it comes to some things.We've been complaining a bit more lately about the severe and many foibles of the QAP and hubbers have done so for years. QAP is still very weak and there's an awful lot of junk content on HP. So...
