What is the criteria for hubs that are included in the hub hop feature?
Does it have to do with the score of the hub or date published? I've noticed at times that while hub hopping through maybe 20 or 30 hubs, I'll come upon the same hub two to three times. Just curious if anyone knows how this feature works.
The hopper features the most recently published hubs on the entire site, influenced somewhat by what topics you follow, if I remember correctly.
Whenever I hub hop I only see stuff that's been published within the last couple hours, thus if there haven't been that many new hubs published at that particular time I get a lot of repeats.
I feel like the hopper is designed to weed out substandard hubs right away. I always see a lot that have extremely poor English, are overly promotional, or are obviously copied.
That being said I also find a lot of really great hubs too, especially poetry since I'm not going to go out of my way to look for it on the site.
Hubs that are included in the hub hop feature are hubs that have been published in the last 24 hours.

I decided to give hub hopping a try. I was curious to see how good (or bad) the hubs were. I found some good hubs, others not so much. After about my second or third hop, I came across a hub that read alright for the first two or three paragraphs, and then quickly devolved into some kind of...

I established Groups and moved my existing (completed) hubs into appropriate groups. I understand that some of my hubs will show at the bottom of the screen for a hub from the same group. However, I believe that categorizing hubs into groups with the same or similar theme/overall topic ON THE...

HubPages has this wonderful feature called Hub Hopping or Hub Hop to flag low-quality/copied/spam content. I know some hubbers do use this and help HP staff weed out the substandard content. Here's one more reason why everyone should 'hub hop.' I came across this thread on a Google...

The new rule-check out the non performing hubs. How do you look at it?I am here only since 4 months. But people here have published over 100 hubs. Do'nt you think it will be quite difficult task for them?
