Hello,
I tried to publish this article several times with some fixes and changes but it just won't get featured.
I would really appreciate any help on the matter.
5 Reasons Why New and Experienced Writers Should Start Writing For Iwriter
http://hub.me/am8gA
Your article seems overly-promotional, pushing the other site and that might be why it's not being featured and it also seems to be a little short.
I aggree; the article is nothing more than a long advertisement to join iwriter. It even includes a link to a commercial site - something HP will not allow at all. It contains no information at all for a reader outside of the policies of iwriter - something that can be found by going there in the first place.
HubPages is not a site to create advertising for commercial endeavors.
Also you have an affiliate link at the end of the article. That will get snipped as such links are not allowed on HubPages.
Thank you all for replying.
I guess I can understand what you say about it seeming like a commercial. It was supposed to be helpful, though.
Also, I have removed the link before but since it changed nothing I put it back. I'll try removing it again and maybe change it a little bit.
Thank you all for your help.

I have an account that is around 6 years old. I opened a second account under my real name so I could add particular hubs to my portfolio. I had nine featured hubs on my first account and only two on my second. I wrote an article for my new account and was told it had to be reviewed. Then it was...
