I was just browsing through a few hubs by other writers and noticed that everytime I went to read one on Discover Hubpages I had a Spam Alert 'we have stopped this site' pop up! Not sure if it's on the other sites, I will check.
Nell, I just went into one of my articles on Discover and didn't get that message.
I haven't come across that issue yet, Nell. However, I have noticed that HubPages has been featuring new articles on hubpages.com without also featuring them on Discover Hubpages. I'm not sure why they are doing so, because they usually don't feature an article on one site without doing so on the other.
Why should hubpages feature an article on hubpages.com and then on discover.hubpages.com if I understand it that way? Featured articles it seems are home to Discover? And are then moved to a network site.
I contacted the HubPages Team on this matter, and they explained to me that a new article featured on hubpages.com doesn't get featured on discover.hubpages.com until it receives so many views. I had thought that any article that HubPages approved for publication was featured automatically on both sites, but it turns out that it's not that way.
The Shawdow, I like and understand the steps you took. You're welcome.
I'm getting the warning. But only on a pc where I have installed a certain antivirus.
We have reported the false flag to AVG Antivirus. Hopefully, it will be corrected soon.
My antivirus software is also flagging the site with a phishing alert.
Certain antivirus are vulnerable or a false-positive, just to get you change gear.

What difference does it make if an article is featured over Discover.hubpages? Does it mean that it has more chances of being picked up for a niche site?

I have encountered a very poorly written hub, the spelling and grammar was bad and the sentences were incomprehensible. The hub has less than 300 words in total including the title (268 words exactly) and has more than 15 none-English words. I had to check the hubber profile; the hubber has 12...
