Hello, Hubbers. I just received news that surprised me. After updating my "Are Hurricanes Getting Stronger because of Anthropogenic Climate Change" article with information on Hurricane Florence, my score literally broke the barrier into the 100 mark. Not that Hubscores matter, but isn't a 100 a good thing?
It is a good thing to have a high hub score, you can expect more traffic from the article.
I'm not sure. I have several articles that have had 100 scores for some time now. But they are also ones that get quite a few views, so that's always good!
That's nice. Also, I'm going to check this one out later.
That's great! Even though it doesn't have an effect traffic wise, it's a wonderful feeling to know that your article has been reviewed and found excellent!
Take a screen shot of it for a souvenir, based upon my experience, that score is likely to change in the future.
One or two of my sites have hit the 100 score a few times but I don't see that it matters at all in terms of viewership. While it is nice to see that score, don't let it excite you too much.
Actually, the higher your hub score, the more times HP places your article on the recommended list. Same applies to your profile score. Size matters.

Since this feature was deleted, HP staff have told us that this would be reinstated. It does not matter to all of us, but I know that in my case the readers find it very helpful. A former staff member told me last year that this would become a reality in June of 2021. That did not happen. If it is...

Thanks Tess. I am also at a loss to understand it even though I've tried to follow the instructions. I've posted a few things that I think are links on Pinterest but I'm not sue anybody sees them. I shall await with eager anticipation the input of social media gurus.

My hub scores range from 65 to 87 as of the last time I looked. My average is 73. To me it seems like I have a "C" average. I'm disappointed and discouraged. I am doing everything that is recommend to get a good score.It is disheartening not to get a feedback. For...

I've heard to disregard that but I'm still a little curious. Honestly I don't know how the score is even decided but those of you that have a lot of followers or have been able to make money, what is your average score per article?Thank you!

After 6 months on the site i've started the really wonder how many backlinks is a reasonable number to any hub, and really to a hub becoming successful? Or is it simply a lottery.What kind of figures do other hubbers consider?

My Hub "People Almost Met: Lily at the Pool" recently had a hub score of 100 and stayed at the level for about two weeks. Now it is in the 60's. It has lots of comments and about average views (for my hubs). Anyone know what I can do about this?
