No, not at all. There is no rhyme or reason for the hubber score. No one really knows how it works? One cannot write a hub for several months and keep a score near 100. Or one can be very active and stay in the 80's. The hubber score, how does it work? Million dollar question.
The hubber score is a combination of the hub scores average, and your participation in the community. Asking and answering questions, participating in the forums, reading and commenting on hubs, and hubhopping. Don't worry about it unless it drops drastically. Then you might try participating a little more.
The hubscore is a combination of the quality of the hub, the comments made, and how many views you have. As a hub has been out for a bit, it will start to lose views. The hubscore will then drop. If you just go in and edit it a little, the hubscore will go up and you might get a few new views on it. That will help keep the hubscore up and keep it from going to unfeatured. This one, you want to keep from dropping too low. If it gets too low, it will not be eligible for the search engines and could get unfeatured. It also does not pay when it gets too low.
Hope this helps you.

My hub that seems most popular with over 52,000 reads is at the bottom of my hubs with a 69 and it has been 70's so I sharpened it up some just to have it fall. How can this be? I hate to delete it but I think that is what many would do who cannot get a hub to rise in score. Actually I had over 100...

Since HP decided to kick our articles back to Discover, for some inexplicable reason, my Hubber score has plummeted. It is still kind of hanging in there on this account because I still have articles on niche sites, but on my other accounts it has dropped into the 60s. Prior to the move, it was in...

I've been making a screendump of my overall hub stats each day to try and keep track of what's going on so I can work out "what works on HubPages" and what doesn't. The aim is to determine some sort of priority about what to do next.Up until now I've been focused on the traffic data and...

I feel good when my score is going up. I feel important and get noticed by others.

Hi, I would like to know if a higher hub rank score helps one in getting google to rank the hub higher in the search results?

Evidently, hubber score has absolutely nothing to do with earnings. Yesterday was my biggest earning day EVER on HP, yet my hubber score is the lowest it's been in quite a while. That's okay - I'll take high earnings over a high score any ole day!
