I think I heard somewhere that google search engine likes blogs especially because they are updated frequently. Do you think the same apply to hubs? Do you repolish your older hubs every now and then?
Most definitely. No need to re-write the hub but there are some grammatical changes that can be made such as providing more detail on one or more points.
Once the google bot knows you update regularly then it will often visit to see if there are any new content changes.
Absolutely- I try to include a news feed, a RSS feed from a frequently updated blog or an ebay capsule or 2 All these capsules automatically update themselves and keep your hub fresh
Great tip Lissie. Thanks!
I think I better do some reworking now :-)

I don't have a lot of hubs, but I'm finding myself updating them every few weeks with new content. Who else is updating their hubs and who isn't? If you don't, do you create a new hub and compile them into a single group?

I'm noticing lower than normal CPMs on my hubs. Way lower. Like half or more. Anyone else noticed this?

Some articles you can add to (or update?) every week, but should you? Does anyone know if how often you add to an article changes (positively or negatively) your views, earning potential, etc.

Just curious if people go back and edit their hubs after they first put them up. While I don't think you should publish incomplete hubs, I thought it would be better to get it up and running and going back later to add to it.I haven't seen anything that encourages people to keep adding to...

So far, I have built several hubs, and the scores of them are not high. Someone suggested me that updating the old hubs may help me improve my hubscore. Should each of hubs be updated? Frequently or occasionally?
