Is there a Hub Score Formula?

   I know everyone says HubScore doesn't matter, but I'd like to get my scores up anyway. Is there a formula or anything? It is just that for one of my fun topics (cryptids) I have been making top 10 list of cryptids found in various parts of the world and basically use the same format for each of them. But the scores all vary. Is there something I'm missing? Is there a preferred number of images, videos, link etc?

      I am no expert, so take this with a grain of salt. No one knows the specific formula HP uses. For an article score personally I use the score as a guide to be compared/contrasted with Informational or Creative Writing Scale (See following link). If my score is in the 60's I look at the scale for 6 and compare with 8 (80?), which is what HP looks for for the niche sites.
      
      And, yes, there is formatting too. Helpful hints you will find at the article where the Scale is found link following. Plus, the more experienced in these forums will be chiming in.

      At the above scale is an in-text link to Creative Articles scale.

   You start with your age.
   
   Multiply it by five.
   
   Divide by the number of children that you have, unless it's zero, in which case you need to divide by your house/apartment number times ten.
   
   Then you you need to add the age that your paternal great-grandmother was when she died.
   
   Subtract the current number of bananas in your fruit bowl, and raise to the power of the number of oranges.
   
   Finally, you need to ignore the number than you just calculated using the above formula and pick any random number between one and a hundred. Hey presto! There you have it!

   Paul, you forgot to include the circumference, in millimetres, of a randomly selected rutabaga. This is a crucial omission that could make the whole calculation meaningless.

      That must be why my figures were off. But now they keep turning out the same figure they are giving me.
