It's a rating bestowed by HubPages to denote the quality of an article. No one knows how it is calculated and it is worthless, tbh.
The numbers are not fixed. Thanks for the reply.
No, they can vary. Or used to. Everything on the stats page is stuck at the moment.
I also noticed that the statistics are down for me. Perhaps there is a technical glitch on the site that needs to be fixed.
I noticed you do a lot of sports articles with photos. Don't know if you are aware but you should understand the legal issues around using other people's photos. You really don't want to leave yourself open to a legal challenge.

I want to put the source but it doesn't work. I think there are many technical problems. How can I fix them? I love sports, so I write articles about them. Therefore, the source field has not been fixed. I will delete the pictures.Thank you so much for the advice.
The problem is whether the photos you are using have an appropriate license. Adding an attribution doesn't make them legal-to-use. Basically, you are taking someone's work and you could be sued for doing so.
Please read the linked article from beginning to end.
No, it is not stolen. All the images that I use are licensed under the license below, but the source must be mentioned. I have removed all the images from my articles until the source field is fixed. Please provide me with a way to contact Hubpages.
The numbers under the heading "Score" are, as Bev says, irrelevant.
The zeros under the heading "7 days" tell you that this site is f**ked.
If they all had a CC license then you can use them. If you can't put the attribution and live link in the capsule (I don't understand why not) then you could put it in the text below the image.
Staff aren't replying to queries right now as HubPages is virtually a dead site.

A couple years ago in 2011, I had a hub on another account that went up to 5000 views rapidly. Eventually it waned to about 1000-1300 views. Now after a couple years it gets about a few hundred views a day astonishingly. Would that hub be defined as "going viral?" I know it's not...

Just wanted to give everyone a heads up that HP has started the process of mining articles from Discover. The new Owlcation articles have the same title as the ones on Discover (in most cases) and the URLs are identical as well. The only difference is the beginning. For example,...
