If I ask lots of questions here on HubPages, will it boost my hubber score?
I'm not really sure what the function is for this question section of Hubpages. Many of the questions seem so random and not related to the site.
Is it just a way of socializing on the site and networking?
Its both socializing, a display of authority, a portal for hub ideas, and a place for your questions to be answered! Not only that, questions you ask have your adsense code on them some of the time and you can profit off random viewers! *the last time I checked*
It originally started as a way for hubbers to create new hubs when they lacked ideas but has grown to be so much more then that. It is a very useful tool for many, and it can add a few cents to your wallet if done well!
Lastly, It does help your hubber score to create and to answer others questions, there are even accolades for questions asked, questions answered, and for author selected "best answers".
Hope that answers your question,

I heard that you can make money off of asking questions. I will try it myself.
Activity on HubPages will help your user score, whether it's in the Q&A, Forums, or commenting on other hubs. Nothing helps hubscore as much as writing new hubs, but it's a good practice to be active around the site.
I never thought about that, but you could be correct.
I just try to help if I see one that I can answer or try to cheer someone up if he/she needs it
in the past, asking questions and answering them could boost up your score but now, HP focus on our hubs, quality ones. SO, questions do not affect much

Just had a big drop on my profile score. And all my hubs were featured along with a steady 10 Editors Choice. I say 'were' because 3 were just unfeatured and I don't know what to do about that. My views are over 945,000. Boo-hoo. Hubpages doesn't love me anymore!

Who thinks we should ask to reinstate a page dedicated to locating hubbers by hubber score. Beginning with 100-0.We once had such a page here that made the hubber score much more relevant, and we could at least get a chance to locate the top hubbers who most definitely deserved high praise for...

It would seem that HubPages frowns upon the ongoing interaction within my popular thread, and I was wondering if anyone else has noticed this sort of trend within their own threads? The responses are relevant, engaging, and ongoing; so is this HubPages trying to say, indirectly, that it is time to...

I'm thinking the answer is probably yes?If you have hubs that have been deemed "not featured", for one reason or another, will that factor into lowering your overall score/rating as a HubPages member? Example--let's say your overall rating is 75. If 10 non featured hubs become...

Is HubPages trying to discourage its writers and get them to quit writing?Every time I publish a hub my Hubber score goes down then it goes up by 1-2 points and then down by 1-2 points. Then when I am not on here for a day or two it goes down by more than 2 points. This is very...
