It doesn't happen instantly.
Wait and see what happens.
Read other hubs.
Read help posts.
A new hub-- especially a first hub, is likely to start at 50 or even lower. Don't put too much importance on the numbers, they don't mean as much as you think.
It is a game that requires patience.
This was asked four hours after joining...
Rochelle is right, give it time, the score will creep up, especially as you gain fans and more people start to read your hubs. It certainly takes more than three or four hours, but look again in a week or two and you will no doubt be pleasantly surprised (assuming your writing is quality content). Good luck and welcome to Hubpages
1. Make sure that your score is visible on the screen.
2. Put away the mouse and keyboard.
3. Go get some white out and a marker.
4. Cover up the existing score with white out, allow to dry.
5. On the white out, write in the score of your choosing.
It's that easy.
Really, it just takes time.. Some of my articles score below 60, but it doesn't bother me one bit. They are still bringing in adsense revenue - that's what really matters.
Good luck with things!
And you will notice your hubscore go up slowly as your fans read the hub, it will remain up if you get good google exposure through selection of keywords. The hub hubscore will go down after this if it isn't a very long hub with good keywords or content. Then this would be the time to worry about it and go back and revise it, adding more information/pictures etc.

And learn patience. And read a lot. Read hubs and forum posts. Figure out who is worth reading or listening to about hubbing. You can get started with sunforged, darkside, relache, Mark Knowles, ryankett.

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!

It takes me half an hour or so to write a 2,000 word article. It takes almost four hours to upload it and edit it so its published in feature mode. I would like to just upload my article and hubpages has some sort of software that would instantly design a feature published hub. Is there such a...

My title should have read another hub author score question . I have noticed this hubber that puts up a lot of hubs, however, they are all very short, most less than 100-200 words. The type of hub that can be put up in less than 15 mintues. And, the majority of their individual hub scores...

I dont know what I did but my hub score dropped from 81 to 60. Can anyone tell me the reason and suggest me an effective resolution for getting back to the prior position.

It is advantageous to delete one's own low scoring hubs that have little traffic. I figure getting rid of the low score would increase the average of the rest of one's hubs.What do you think?

Sometimes when I have ideas for hubs, I "start a hub" and sometimes finish it later or just let it sit there for a while. Maybe I should just write down my hub ideas instead. Does it hurt my hub scores or overall hubber score to have those unfinished hubs (often with just titles) sitting...
