Don't get me wrong, I don't wanna brag or anything . But is it common to get a 92 hubscore after 4 days and having published just 3 short-and-not-even-that-good hubs? Should I expect my rating to start falling now, or what?
Also, do you find (eg though trackers) that the traffic from outside hubpages to your hubs generates more revenue (CTR) than internal traffic? I'd think so... and if I'm right, what is the difference between the two CTRs?
thanks
Getting to 90-94 scores is very easy somehow but getting more then 95 points is the hard work.
I think that points are not revealing good information because as you as a 1 week old hubber score only differs 5% from a 1 year old hubber.
Whereas I have never got to 90 yet, and I have been here nearly a month and I have posted 37 Hubs with an average Hub rating of 71.
I have no idea how they calculate my score, and after beating my head against it for a couple of weeks I have now decided that as long as it is over 80 I really don't care.
When it drops below 80, I tweak a few of my older Hubs. I don't know if that makes a difference, because swings of 5% are apparently quite normal, but it gives me the sensation of doing something about it.

mine so far have an average of 75 and still growing a little bit, but I guess it's hard to keep the average high as you post more and more hubs what I honestly don't understand is how they managed to get to a 75 average, I don't think they're that special. Hey, maybe I'm a decent writer and I didn't even know it
What about the other question, do you think external visits have higher CTR than visits from hubpages.com?

Recently, there was a thread of someone complaining about Hub of the Days lacking amazing writing skills. Their complaint stated the Hubs being selected were because they were niche driven and 'how too's' instead of stellar writing from the soul. The day he posted that, it was my hub that was...

I've seen several posts here were people are offended when one person mentions a hub as a blog..is there a difference between a hub and a blog?

Often, we'll be reading Hubs to find a specific answer or solution to something in our lives. And often, we'll get to the end and be "too busy" to rate it. This is understandable; I do it too. Even though I know that by giving a Hub a Thumbs Up or Thumbs Down, I will be...

I was just wondering what hubbers considered as "good traffic" to one of your hubs? Some of my hubs only get a handful of reads a week, while others get consistently 75-100 reads a day. After looking at my hubs I think that getting 25-50 reads a day is decent. My hub topics vary greatly -...

I have read a few threads now about a google slap and dropping traffic. I just had a look at my stats, got a few red arrows and a few blue ones. The overall number is pretty much my average. I feel for you guys that have had traffic drops and hope its a bit of a glitch, something that will sort...
