    Curious question as a new hubber. What does our profile score indicate? I noticed the highest I've got so far is 72 and now it drops to 59. Does this affect our profile's credibility? Thanks for any response

      No one really knows but I think it takes activity and article scores into account.

        I agree with Bev. The more articles you write and the higher your articles score, the higher your rating will be. This also includes your participation on the forums. You are still pretty new here. Give it some time.

      HP is not transparent, so it's hard to determine what some things mean, such as the profile score.

    The score doesn't matter. It's just a way of encouraging people to write and participate but it doesn't affect view numbers or earnings.

    Time to dust this off for another airing.

    The Hubscore is a complex calculation that starts with your shoe size. This is multiplied by the last three digits of your social security number. Then Factor X is deployed. Not even HubPages knows the numerical value of Factor X, although I suspect Google does and uses it to downgrade everybody's writing. Finally, the circumference of a randomly selected rutabaga is measured; this number is set aside and plays no further part in the calculation.

    Follow me for more mathematical tips.

      It doesn’t matter. It’s really hard to determine what it is for.
