I don’t think most readers of hubs realize that they can see a list of articles by the author by clicking on the profile icon.
I’d like to suggest that a headline be added, above our profile icon, which informs the reader that they can see other articles by that author. Make the headline clickable to the hubbers profile page.
Suggested Headlines: Also By This Author: Read More by:
Would that be possible? What do you think?
There's already a "More by:" feature on our Hubs, in the right hand column. How is your suggestion different from this?
I'm suggesting the headline be directly above the author's profile icon. When I first started looking at hubs, I only found out by chance that if I clicked on the authors name that it would take me to their profile. I'm thinking there are other folks, like me, who don't naturally see the photo as a link.
The "more by" only points towards one article: the profile page lists them all
I like that idea ibrummer, I know that if you click on the writers name you automatically go into all of their hubs.
Yes, tics, that's the spot I'm talking about. Why couldn't there be a header above the writer's name making it more obvious to a reader of "all" a writer's different articles.
I realize there is an "also by" pictured hub, but that doesn't give the reader close to an idea about all the other articles by the writer.
TimeTraveler2 has started a discussion about this same issue at

Take a look at his suggestions and give him your opinion.
When I first saw the new layout, I wondered if the first few lines of the hubber's profile information couldn't be included directly under the avatar with a 'read more' link to the hubber's profile page. I think I'd prefer that to the current 'more by' link.
I think this would also encourage hubbers to make their profiles (more) interesting.
I like this idea too!
I do wish the more by would have a menu to sort by topics. I like a variety of topics but certain topics hit more of my trigger points.

A reader contacted me today to request a link to my profile page because she was unable to find it and wanted to read more of my articles. When I took a look at one of my articles, I saw that my pen name was shown along with the word "more". When you click "more", it...

Hi,Hi,I keep getting the message that my hubs could be featured, but no matter how often I change them, they never are. I keep getting told that they may contain "spammy elements" but I'm not sure what these might be. Many of my hubs were previously published in my local newspaper, the...

I have noticed in the past few days while Hub Hopping and scanning my feed that there are a plethora of new hubs and hubbers joining the site and publishing low quality or poorly translated/spun hubs.
