    I went for a while with no ideas, are my Hubs of the wrong subject matter?

    My hubs are fine I think, I have a good Hubscore but I do not get much fan mail or comments. Is there a way they are screened for being the best Hubs, and that's what readers see the most? My favorite subject is music then psychology.

    Are some of your hubs idled? When I went to your page I noticed that you have over 70 hubs but I was not seeing nearly that many. Views are far more important than comments or fan mail. The ideal circumstances would be tons of traffic from outside of HP. Most of those people won't comment or leave fan mail. You get comments and fan mail by being part of the community here. Being involved in the forums can be helpful if you are in highly viewed threads. Don't worry about fan mail. Just keep external traffic coming in!

    Just stick to it, we all get writers block, and views will come with more content. I find a lot of times I may go for a period and cannot think of a Hub to write, then 10 come to me, so it's up and down. Just don't give up, because it takes a lot of effort to make it here, but it is well worth it in the long run. I also agree with the comment here as well that outside traffic is significantly more important than comments. I get around 3500-4500 views a day on my hubs, and I may get 1 or two comments at most each day, and even those comments are usually from people who read most of my hubs, and continue coming back to ask questions or comment. So just stick with it..
