Comment on My Thoughts About Hubscore on Hubpages by Katherine Tyrrell

Katherine Tyrrell — Sun, 25 Jan 2015 11:02:35 +0000

I absolutely agree with you about the fact it’s best to build content which people like and want to link to rather than trying to build links per se.

Initially there seemed to me to be no rhyme nor reason to HubScores

The conclusion I eventually came to re HubScores was that the really high ones were where they had been manually moderated, that it passed all quality assessment hub hurdles and the assessor actually liked the hub.

However that particular theory rather fell apart after I heard about how many people have had really high scoring (e.g. perfect score) hubs unpublished.

It strikes me that HubPages has some serious problems in terms of quality assessment that it very much needs to address.

This advice may be so out of date now that it doesn’t work; I haven’t tested it in a few years. Good luck!

There is actually a way to sort hubs on the profile – there’s a little grey bar along the top (under the featured hubs if those are set up) with a drop down menu defaulting to show: all which lets you sort based on category.

Comment on Squidoo to Hubpages Transfer: Traffic Increase by Nathalie

Nathalie — Tue, 16 Sep 2014 07:40:35 +0000

I have been “in” for 6 days now. My traffic has already double compare to my weekly traffic at squidoo and I still have 24 hours to go before it’s been a complete week. The BEST part tho is that looking at the traffic source it is mainly Google traffic, not Hub/squidoo traffic. Real stuff, real traffic. A bit of Bing too.

Haven’t had much time yet to work on the squidhubs (I just moved to a new city recently and with back to school and all…) but I also do intent to prune links as well. I will also be moving some of the heavy products pages elsewhere, unless I have time to add more interesting content before the 4 months grace period is over.

As for the money: it’s adding up nicely on my dashboard, but I only got 2 amazon sales (which is very very low for me)/ Clicks to my own affiliate links are way up but I need more time to see if it converts as well as it did on squidoo.

Overall i am an happy camper. I just wished I could move my other hub account with this one.

And it’s always nice to see your graph and charts, I have never been that good at keeping records!

Thank you for explaining how to get the “next” feature. That’ll work great for my book reviews. And now I know how to set up groups, too.

Thank you so much for all this information. Not only does it help me, but it also helps my FB group, The Writer’s Door. Most of our members are Squids who are moving to HP, and every bit of this kind of information is valuable to them.
