I read the section on the HubScore under the FAQs but I still have a question. If a HubScore is going up, does that mean that individual hub is getting some traffic? Thanks!!
It might mean that-- but you can tell if you are getting traffic by the number of views listed by your hub title on your 'account' page. You can also look at the "stats" at the top of each hub to see some of the sources of your traffic.
You have only been here a couple of days, so it is very early to be expecting traffic from search engines. Hang in there and it will come.
Nope! Traffic seems to make no difference on many of my hubs as they still move up and down, apparently with no connection to visitors. Time on page or incoming links may be considered, but this is merely a guess. No one knows how the score is tabulated completely. It's a trade secret, supposedly!
Probably, the reason that the hub score is going up, is mainly because the hub is getting the much required traffic. I feel that somehow, they both are inter-dependent.
I agree that traffic doesn't seem to be a factor. I've had titles I've created in hub templates that show up on my account, but are empty of any content, and mysteriously, their scores will start going up! There's no way anyone has viewed them, because they've never been published!

In the past two days, my hubscore has been at a record low, but my traffic and earnings have been at a high. Usually I have a hubscore in the 95-100 area. Lately, I haven't been able to devote much time to hubpages, so I wasn't surprised that the score started dropping. I figured that I was being...

I thought I knew the answer to this question. But something interesting happened in the last week which I found it hard to explain. I'd be interested to hear opinions.I have a hub which is nine months old and had just reached 250-300 hits per day.I was experimenting to see how many tags I could use...

I have received over 250 views today on my top hub however my hubscore has decreased. Is it that hubpages take into account the percent of rate it up hits along with the hub views. say a percent of viewers have to click the rate it up button in order to increase your hub score. this is how it...

I'd like to suggest we get rid of Hubber Score - and perhaps even Hub Scores. They:- are constantly misunderstood;- cause a lot of upset and grief in the forums; and- encourage newbie Hubbers to direct their efforts in entirely wrong directionsFor instance, I've known newbie Hubbers stop...
