For the last 2 weeks, I am facing a problem with HP that my hubbers score is dropping very quickly. I have published 37 articles. All of them are featured. Having good scores as well. I update those articles on daily basis. I am trying to make it error-free as well but don't know why I don't have control over my hubbers score. The only thing that I am worried about is I can't post direct comments on anyone's profile. It goes in their spam. Is this the reason for the rapid dropping of the hubbers score?
Please someone guide me. I am worried. Two weeks before my score was 81. But now it is 44...
Please need urgent help
Thanks
Misbah, you don't have to worry that your hubscore is nose diving rapidly. Despite the fact that you've lots of featured articles to your credit. D'you think the issue is common to you alone? Nope! Like anyone else that had the same question as you, mine previously 86 drop to 42. It later rose to 56, and then fallen to 40. Like you I post a thread for discussion. I gathered that one has not to pay serious import to it, and that it's mystery "still remain" Three weeks ago, I contact team@hubpages.com on the challenge. From their information I gathered the hub score can depend much on comments made on your articles by your fellow writers. But as I'm still research the question, my last pointer needs verifing. Cotact team@hubpages and they will send you a link to study. Thanks.
Misbah, stop worrying about the comments. There's no point. As I've said before, improve your articles and your hubberscore will improve. Make sure all the summary/intros are in perfect English.
Go through your articles and proofread them or put them through Hemingway (style app).
Also, change your profile pic to a genuine photo instead of that generic one.
Misbah, the rise and fall of our hubber score has always been a mystery that we will never fully understand. You have been publishing a lot of articles in quick succession. You may actually find that leaving a few days or a week between posts helps. I know that sounds crazy, but as soon as I publish a new article my score drops for a couple of days before rising again.
Oh, I never realised. it is strange as all of my articles are featured
But I will do as you are saying.
Maybe it will help me.
Very interesting. I wonder if it also depends on what you post in forums?! Lol
Misbah, in regard to your concerns about your comments not appearing on other people's articles. I received two comments from you on my latest article Poems From the Porch 54. However, they were both marked as "spam" and I had to mark them 'not spam' and accept them. Maybe that is happening on others articles as well but they haven't noticed them marked as spam.
Yes Jodah, I am worried about that I emailed the team twice, but no results until now. Hope they will solve my problem.
Thanks for letting me know.
Blessings
I sent an email to the team again,
I hope they will resolve the issue soon
Thank you Jodah, for putting up this effort to let me know.
Blessings
You've used another generic image for your profile pic. Can't you use a photo you've taken yourself? So it is unique. Doesn't have to be of you.
Looking Gorgeous but credit goes to the makeup, heavy jewelry, a beautiful dress and of course a wonderful camera.. lol...
you are more pretty
Stay blessed
LOL. The wrinkles aren't showing in my photo - they are hidden by the hair
Bev G... It's not only about the face which should be beautiful and wrinkle-free but the heart. The heart should stay beautiful and young... And u have a beautiful heart... I may not have wrinkles today but after a few years, I will also have them... A part of life's journey. A life cycle...Nobody can ever run from this reality
Misbah,
As john mentioned your comments keep showing up in my spam folder.
I did contact the team at Hubpages, who assured me it was just a glitch.
They didnt purposely mark your comments for spam.
They told me to kust mark as not spam & comment.
You might contact them at team@hubpages.com
Thanks, Brenda I did contact them but still, the issue is not getting resolved.
Hope they soon take me out of there spam. It can't be a glitch because it's happening from the last 10 -12 days. And everyone who is taking me out of their spam boxes. I again get there for no reasons.
Thanks for your love and support
Blessings
You say you are constantly updating your articles to make sure they become error-free. Making changes takes its toll on your hubber score. That's probably what you're facing. So again, it's a Catch 22 situation; don't worry about it, just do the edits as you need to. But perhaps consider doing them differently--copy the article and edit it outside of HP until you have it updated enough that it's worth posting. That way you won't constantly be interfering with your hubber score.
Thank you, GwennyOh for letting me know, you are very helpful always.
Yes, this could be a reason.
Blessings
GweenyOh, thanks for this information-editing on hubpages. It seems to elude my notice though. But it's a catch now.
Thank you GwennyOh, Bev G, Jodah you people really helped me a lot to tell me the tricks and tips to boost up my scores and eventually the scores are much better now from 41 to 62 now... So, I posted a new article today after reaching 60...
I wish it never drops too low ever again, it was really very discouraging... I was sad for a week just because of my low scores.
Thanks a lot, I am glad to have such wonderful friends around me.
Sending Blessings
Misbah, the comment you made on my “Quite Country Road” article was not shown as spam. it seems as though your problem may have been sorted.

Sadly, from the time I have joined HP. I have seen a man who is continuously spreading fake news through his so-called good articles. I have ignored his articles a lot of times. but seeing him targeting every now and then is not acceptable for me and I am sure it is not acceptable for all those...

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!

I'd like to suggest we get rid of Hubber Score - and perhaps even Hub Scores. They:- are constantly misunderstood;- cause a lot of upset and grief in the forums; and- encourage newbie Hubbers to direct their efforts in entirely wrong directionsFor instance, I've known newbie Hubbers stop...

So, they claim that my poem is a duplicate content. HubPages, are you serious? I hope no one on the internet is taking and stealing my fantasies and creative ideas. Nobody has a cable attached to my brain. The only thing is that I put a quote in a callout capsule and the poem was about 260 words in...

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...

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...
