I have occasionally note this hubber
http://danaray.hubpages.com/
whose account state is
No of hub = 123
Hubber score = 5
Hubber for = 5 months
Any one know what is the reason for such a low hubber score?
It's now 4.
There's a lot of obvious stuff wrong there, but the hub I looked at seemed OK. If all 100+ of them are like that, then it is indeed puzzling.
5 months plus 123 hubs, and traffic still not even a 1000 is also puzzling.
that is a fascinating coincidence...This author and the one flagged here http://chickie99.hubpages.com/ are both referencing the EXACT same domain in each and EVERY one of their hubs.
There was a debate on another hub whether this was considered to be excessive, but they smartly stay under 2 links per hub.
Either that, or the domain they are linking to extensively is one heck of a web site!
Linking repeatedly to the same domain across all hubs or many hubs is also overly promotional, so that may well explain the low score.
That's what I thought too, but here is the discussion about whether that is still the case or not.

OK, thanks. And here are the rules. The issue with linking to the same domain in multiple hubs is that the account may be considered set up to promote another site or business, as mentioned in the introduction.

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!

Why is it that the more work I put into my account, the more my hubber score drops?A couple weeks ago, my hubber score was 94, so I publish one more hub before I went to bed. In those two weeks I have been more active in the community, hub hopping, editing my current articles, and basically...

Is HubPages trying to discourage its writers and get them to quit writing?Every time I publish a hub my Hubber score goes down then it goes up by 1-2 points and then down by 1-2 points. Then when I am not on here for a day or two it goes down by more than 2 points. This is very...
