I am just letting you know that I updated an older article and it took over five resubmissions to get it featured again. It was very frustrating because I kept getting the form letter, which was no help. I was getting so frustrated trying to figure out what was wrong and started making editing errors. I did persist and now it is featured, yikes! Since HP has more editors, you'd think they'd get rid of the form letter. I have it memorized now. : ) Here is the article that is finally featured. If you see a typo, let me know. I will go into hysterical laughter. https://hubpages.com/games-hobbies/Fun- … s-for-Kids
I admire your tenacity! So happy it finally passed.
Thank you. That is very nice of you to say.
You seem to have a spam comment at the end of the article. It doesn't add any value to the topic. I would delete it.
I was thinking the same thing-- patience and perseverance is admirable.
Ahh. That's very nice of you to say. It was not easy. I appreciate the kind words of encouragement.
Articles that are unfeatured on HubPages are handled by our moderation team, not our editing team. Our editing team selects articles to move to Network Sites, requests author edits to move articles, and edits articles. We don't handle featuring and defeaturing articles. I'm glad that you were able to fix the problems and get it featured.
Robin, Thank you for the clarification. Still, it would be nice if HP Moderation Team could be more direct in their emails. Writers would be able to fix their articles faster. Form letters are more of a generality than a specific request.

I Joined HP a few days ago (maybe 5 days ago) and got my First article featured within 24 hours. Now for the second, it is taking time. I have edited it two times still it's not getting featured. I was wondering does it gets difficult after the first article? How long it took for you?

I tweaked one of my featured articles last Friday and it was unfeatured within two hours. I was "What?" Five days later of retweaking, still not featured, rewriting, still featured, and taking shots in the dark to get it right, my article is featured again. All in all, it was a...

The feeling of first approved featured article in any site is good one for any author. Which was your first approved and featured article in hubpages? Can you share the link so that others especially the new authors here can go through it? It will be interesting to go through them.

I noticed one of my articles, though it used to get a lot of organic traffic, now gets more "direct" traffic. Made me curious if organic traffic is necessary to stay featured.
