    This is the 10 commandments for all hubbers:



    1) You  must write particularly engaging Hubs, blogs, or articles which visitors love to read from start to finish.




    This next set involves sharing your knowledge and opinions:


    2) You must contribute to the community by helping new users in the forums, and flag inapproprate content.

    3) You must leave insightful comments on other's hubs.

    4) You or your hub must start exciting comments.

    5) You must be measured as popular among readers by your amount of feedback.





    This is gained by also following no. 2-4:



    6) You must answer at least 10 question.

    7) Your hub must be read over 1,000 times.

    8) You must have at least 1,000 followers.





    Write so many hubs within a year's time:



    9) You must publish at least a thousand hubs.

    10) You must be a member for a year.

      Love your ideas but am finding it difficult to apply to starting a cult of 'me'. Can I randomly select between 1-10 do you think?

    Blimey - you're actually making it sound like hard work now!!

    My "1 commandment" is simply: just enjoy it.

    I think that rule number one is all it takes to be a good hubber.

    What exactly is an 'A rated' hubber?

    ►It certainly doesn't mean a hubberscore of 100 - many people have those in less than a year or without tons of followers.
    ►Do you mean respect? I know quite a few people who have only a few hubs but have a lot of respect (for instance, Misha.)
    ►In fact I think to properly be a really really good hubber, you'd break nearly all the rules but the first - because you'd write nonstop, learn SEO nonstop and promote and work on your hubs nonstop.

    So, what exactly IS an A-Rated hubber?

    I just got my HubPages report card.  Here were my grade ratings:

    Sarcasm:  A
    Long-Windedness: A+
    Knowledgeable:  C
    SEO Technique: F-
    Earnings: F-
    Quality Forum Posts: D-


    If we calculate my Writing Hubs Overall Rating Score (known as my WHORS) based on those numbers, with an A as 4.0, B as 3.0, etc., I have a 1.8 GPA, making me a D+ rated hub writer.  Which ain't grate but its passen.
