I am having a problem when I insert a link into a hub. For some reason it is appearing as a light grey color that is very difficult to see, instead of the bright blue that is supposed to appear. Has any one experienced this and if so, do you know how to fix it?

I've looked to see if I can figure out how to change my links from grey to blue but cannot find how to do this. Can you explain further.
Thanks very much
Anja

All the links on all the computers that have visited a certain page are displayed in gray (well, most anyway). This is to show people that they have visited a certain page and cannot be changed in the way you are considering.

I published a hub recently, and when I returned to it, it had been reformatted, and all the links removed. The links were solely to my other related hubs on hubpages, so I don't know if they have disappeared because of a technical glitch or some sort of anti link sentiment. Can anyone shed some...

If I disappear it is because I currently have very worrying PC problems known as Bad Pool Caller. I am back on at present after a System Restore but should the Blue Screen of Death return and my PC crash totally due to Bad Pool Caller then I will be offline until further notice!

Hey Hubbers,I would like to take this opportunity to possibly give you a bit of help. Now, I'm not the greatest at SEO or even understanding Google.However, almost everyone who has probably had massive amounts of comments on other peoples hubs and/or had hubs that received massive amounts of...

I know I'm starting another lost traffic thread, (geesh, enough already), but...Here's why. As it has been noted, HP has suffered, site-wide - all of us - even the touted success stories, traffic loss due to Google's year-long algo changes. That's the BIG problem that is almost only solvable by...
