What is the quickest/best solution to get a hub deindexed ?
I'm going to move my stuff elsewhere since adsense decided to dump me a week after approving me. Their explanation is that I have copied material on my articles. Funny, since I haven't even made any new hubs in the past month. I officially give up on adsense. It's a racket.
Bookmark your hubs. Since bookmarking is always visited by search engine bots, it is a good idea to have your hubs bookmarked on Diigo, Stumbleupon, Reddit and Digg. Also, try to ping your hubs by using pingler or any other website pinger. This would get the attention of search engine bots. Please let me know the results when you do all this. Btw, you can try checking if your hub has been index by using webcache feature of Google chrome.
Step 1: Unpublish your hubs.
Step 2: Request Google to remove them from the search results.

I would say that more than half of the articles I randomly encounter are clearly nothing but spun...

I've been updating and removing hubs. I haven't settled on a plan for good hubs that don't get traffic. Curious what others do. My top 40 hubs are 85% of traffic. I culled the heard and have been focused on my best hubs.Once I'm through them I'll come up with a plan for the rest.

When our hubs were once chosen, we had a way to see what was supposed to be fixed before it appeared on a niche site. Now I don't see anything like that. It could be me, but there was a way to see what they wanted added or deleted.It's very frustrating. Yesterday I was told my hub on Zeus, the...

Right now, while a Hub is pending, it doesn't show ads, it has a "no follow" tag etc. However our followers get notified and they may share the Hub during that time. It would be nice if that notification could be delayed, too.
