I wouldn't worry much WD, I have seen a lot of fluxuation up to 7 or 8 points. You have some pretty good material out there, don't panic.
Take a deep breath . . .
Then freak out! LOL.
Okay, enough funny stuff. We have all been reading about this lately. I myself have been struggling.
But I keep hearing that as long as it is above 75 we have no problems.
I don't know about any one else, but I have problems (such as freaking out) when mine drops to low.
Many things can influence an individuals hubber score. If your score has dropped over the past couple of days, that is nothing to get overly concerned about. There are so many factors involved here, that can affect our overall scores.
If you comment a bit more on others articles, and/or participate in the forums-this alone can increase your score. However these are not the only factors that influence it. Sometimes it just remains a mystery to some of us, why it fluctuates like it does.
The main thing is to write good quality content that will equal $$. By doing this you will not need a separate dollar accolade. Good luck with this and I believe the learning section of hubpages has more information about this topic that will help fill in the gaps.
One thing that you should notice is that your author score has nothing to do with how much money you make here.
A couple years ago....er, a year and a half ago a guy named Misha was making a hundred bucks a day here....my author score was nearly always higher than his at that time....and I was lucky if I made fifty cents a day.
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.
