Why was the "discover more hubs" feature moved to the bottom of our hubs.
I find these things really annoying. Placed at the end of our hubs and before the responses gives the impression that they are part of our work when in fact they are not. Further I suspect that some readers from outside HubPages would not think to scroll on down to see the responses. I'd much rather see them where they used to be, on the margins and less prominent.
They are most likely trying to increase "internal linking" and to keep visitors on the site longer. The way I look at it, it ain't our site, the hosting is free, so what can ya say? That's another reason why I like to have my own websites when it comes to "doing what I want," but to enjoy the free features here, you must realize that things can change in a whim without your control.
good perspective, thanks. I could select you as my best answer but you're the only one :-)

Anyone...

Over 1/4 of my hubs have not been moved to a niche site. They do not have much traffic from Google, so it is not HPs fault that they have not been selected. There is nothing wrong with them, but they do not have "Google love" so are only moved in the slow process where I ask HP to move...
