Do hubbers follow back?
Do Hubpages work like twitter when following?
Following someone is when you find someone that you like their style and want to follow them so you can read more of their up coming hubs.You Will be sent a notification. you also have The choice to alter the settings,to how you want to be notified and what you want to be notified about.
I only follow someone back if they write articles of interest to me. Otherwise the follow feature is meaningless.
I agree "reciprocal following" is meaningless. I'd only want someone to follow me because they get something out of my hubs and not because they expect me to follow them back! Those types of followers drop off after two weeks of you not following
No, it doesn't work like Twitter, although a lot of new hubbers treat it as such. Following people here means you like their writing primarily and want to see more of their work. Or you want to follow someone you consider an example of a writer you want to learn from and emulate (not copy, but pick up techniques). Although there are social aspects of HubPages when interacting with the community, the emphasis is more on the craft of online writing, learning from more experienced hubbers, and less about gaining followers. Followers will come (or should come) naturally. Good luck and be blessed.

Hello,I've been working hard over the past six months per hubpages and have what I think are a number of nice, interesting hubs. They are getting read quite a bit but few other hubbers choose to follow me. I sometimes will run a query of a topic I'm interested in (like the singer Neil...

Not complaining but I don't understand hub. In an attempt to get involved, I started following a lot of Hubbers. Many of them followed me back and I am seeing a dramatic increase in viewing traffic for my hubs. I guess Hub didn't like this since they took my score from 89 to currently 78 and...

In my years on this site I have seen so many people randomly follow me in hopes that I follow them back. And then as soon as I do, if the topics they write on interest me, they delete me from the hubbers they're following?Do you guys really think this makes people want to read and comment on...

Just a quick question, as above, does having followers help your hubs/hubscore?
