Hi i have written within the word count range and incorporated different sections in my article but Hubpages still wont feature it. Does anybody know if its a robot proofing these articles or an actual person giving the veto.
Article linked below. Any advise welcome.

Although your title is in proper APA format, it is much too long. Keep in mind as well that your title is the most important component of your article, because it tells your readers specifically what the content of your article is about.
Keep your title to about 6-7 main keywords, and remember that definite and indefinite articles, prepositions, conjunctions, and the word "and" are not counted as keywords.
You are also going to need to provide your readers with a comprehensive list of references for your article.
In addition, you need to provide specific information in your profile as to what qualifies you to write an article on this particular topic. Are you a PCP, PA, medical specialist, nurse, dietician, etc.? How many years of experience do you have in your field? Where did you go to undergraduate school, grad school, med school, etc.? What certifications do you have? You need to disclose these professional qualifications in your profile as well.
Some of your paragraphs are much too long, and need to be broken into smaller ones. Generally, online readers have short attention spans, and don't like to be burdened with l-o-n-g paragraphs.
Make absolute sure that none of the information in your article has been "lifted" from a third-party source without proper referencing. (In other words, don't t be afraid to use "quotation marks" in your articles to cite specific references.)
Finally, since you are new to HubPages, please be aware that HP strictly forbids AI-generated content.
Hi Shanice,
I looked at both this article and the other one you published and the red flag that I see is your Amazon ads. Hubpages is quite strict about their usage. You have to have used the product and write about it in the Amazon capsule. If you remove the ads there's a good chance you'll be featured.
Thank you. That makes sense and has given me a new idea to write about product reviews.
Hi, I have researched extensively and written articles on vitamin D for an eCommerce client. Some of your information is untrue, so I suggest referencing your sources.
Also, this is a very competitive topic. The Internet is saturated with vitamin D articles. Even HP has two articles on the Calorie Bee Network site.
I would use a plagiarism check program because my program flagged your content multiple times. Yet, you passed and are on Discover, which baffles me.
Go to the Learning Center and follow the HP guidelines.
Agree with Kenna. The real challenge in writing here is finding your own angle or niche. Every topic anyone cares about is already extensively covered on the Internet, so you need to find that perspective that only you can offer. It may be your own experiences, your own special knowledge, or an innovative combination of research sources. It may be something else. But it needs to be at least somewhat unique.
Actually writing and putting together a good HP article is easy compared to coming up with your own angle.
Great advice for this new hubber, Gregory. And you hit on many points we all need to remember. Thanks for chiming in!

Hi,Hi,I keep getting the message that my hubs could be featured, but no matter how often I change them, they never are. I keep getting told that they may contain "spammy elements" but I'm not sure what these might be. Many of my hubs were previously published in my local newspaper, the...

The feeling of first approved featured article in any site is good one for any author. Which was your first approved and featured article in hubpages? Can you share the link so that others especially the new authors here can go through it? It will be interesting to go through them.
