Does anyone know how you get your score to go up? are my hubs that bad?
I'm not sure if I have this right, but it has been my experience, so here goes:
-Write frequently, at least once a week. Use good keyword research, make it legible, make it unique, etc., etc. When I was writing several hubs a week I noticed my score continued to rise.
However,
-When I go on a following 'spree' or answer/ask too many questions, my score seemed to drop.
-Also, when I hadn't had any activity on Hubpages for a while, my score would often rise. My guess is that the most significant factor is how well your hubs do. I haven't done the math, but it looks like an average of all hub scores.
For the length of time that you have been on hubpages, the number of followers that you have and your subject materials, your hub score is good. Your writing is not bad, your spelling and punctuation are good, your ideas are good. Read lots of other hubs to get ideas on making yours better. Make sure that you put all the tags in and don't worry about it.
When you first publish them , they will have a low score unless you hold them for a few days before publishing. That will generally bring my score up a little, about 10-15 points. Give it another proof before you hit publish. Maybe catch a mistake before publishing.

After 6 months on the site i've started the really wonder how many backlinks is a reasonable number to any hub, and really to a hub becoming successful? Or is it simply a lottery.What kind of figures do other hubbers consider?

Is there a benefit to waiting for a hubscore to come up before publishing?When we start writing hubs, they start with a score of 50. I noticed that my latest went down to 47 while I was still writing (a bad sign? I don't know). If they sit unpublished, it seems the score will rise.So do you go...

Obviously there is no traffic since it is not published. And is it beneficial to let them sit and hibernate until their numbers are really up before publishing?

Do you have Hubs sitting to be edited again before publishing or do you work on one at a time?I have one I started a while back, but if calls for photos that I need to get permission to use, and am not sure where to start.
