I looked at your hub and counted... 70 or 80 words?
I dunno but I think that is a bit minimalistic, don't you? A hub is not a blog, it is a complete article, like a magazine or newspaper article.
Oh I see, well then you should have saved it unpublished until it was completed.
Anyway, I'm sure it'll be fine when it is finished :0
I agree, this is a great tip!
It helped me a lot when I first started writing here to leave hubs unpublished, because I could edit it whenever I had time until the score got higher which indicated what would work best here.
I do not count the number of written words on my Hubs, I say what I have to say to illustrate the point I am seeking through the Power and suggestion of the Holy spirit to make and then I stop writing. I'm not writing a novel or a mini series, just making biblically sound points. Since I do not earn money by these writings, what does it matter how many words I write anyway?
I believe Sir Dent was referring to your posting this in the inappropriate forum topic. You are supposed to post all hubs asking for feedback in the Extreme Hub Makeover section: http://hubpages.com/forum/23
I know it's confusing at first. Welcome.
Earnest, that's a good point. I've got a few Hubs in the works sitting in WordPad for the moment. Maybe I should go the route you speak of. My problem is always time. That and the fact I must be part vampire as I'm always doing my thing overnights.
I would agree with IzzyM, too short, religion is not short of words, used bible quotes and perhaps religious pic to enhance your hub......and listen might as well be honest....if this was an attepmt to get traffic its a waste of time....soon people will get feed up with you......write something worthwhile...the traffic will come.

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?

Hubpages have developed a habit of keeping unpublishing my hubs for "linking to prohibited sites" - However, the particular hub in question which keeps repeatedly being unpublished does NOT contain any links whatsoever! It has been submitted, re-approved and then unpublished again...

Unpublished hub vs published hub...I have an unpublished hub with a higher ranking than one of my published hubs. How does that work? I got a good laugh out of it though.

Do you have a lot of 'red' hubs sitting in your HP account? Or do you decide on a topic, concentrate on that one hub and see it through from start to finish, before even considering the next one?I always have a large collection of red hubs, which I mostly started but abandoned somewhere along...

Lately, I have had 11 hubs unfeatured due to Quality Issues. I have assured my hubs do not contain grammatical or spelling errors. I have included relevant video and changed the titles and added new supporting texts and all this to no avail. The HubPages Staff continues to deem my hubs do not...
