I just posted a blog and it started at the number 46 ... I thought they usually started at 49?

Thanks for letting me know Mr. Wesman. You are right: paying attention to those numbers is quite useless. I was just curious (as usual).

Cheers!

They've been starting lower and rising slower nowadays. I'm not paying that stuff much merit.

Sometimes my Hubs start at 49, sometimes they start at 51.

What is weird, though, is my Hub will start at say 50, but the first person who reads it, often votes it down one notch. I think I have a hater.

They start at a range determined by how well your Hub is written.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
