Two steps forward One back

So I had some advice to set up a couple of other types of site and have them link to my web site at www.backupcamerasystems.net and vice versa. Apparently that increases the traffic to them all so like a good chap I wrote up a couple of articles and set them up on first Scribd then on Hub pages. With a link or two in each to the main site.

So far so good you might think. I'm said to be a fair writer when I put my mind to it and I did my best to make the articles actually have real informational value rather than just be blatant traffic movers. But evidently Hub pages at least didn't agree.

From what I can tell my article there was so good it shot up the rankings very quickly. They score it from 1-100 with a score of 70+ being very good. Mine went in at 68.... This got some stuffed shirt to review it and slap a temporary ban on it as (Get this!) I had one too many link in it to my site where I can (as it is MINE) list products actual cost. That's something I can't really do on a third party site for legal reasons.

The article in question is over 1500 words long. MUCH longer than the average first submission, and i put in one link per 500 word section with pictures or their REQUIRED ad modules splitting it into three bite sized chunks. I thought one per average article was reasonable, guess I was wrong.

What burns me is that I can think of at least three or four Hubs my wife looked at the previous day that were blaten near word perfect rip offs of a fith one. And the crack editorial crew at Hubpages hasn't flagged them at all!

Sheesh I think I'll post something there so off the previous topic as to REALLY confuse the so called editors there. The must think they've pidgeonholed me and are patting themselves on the back for being so eagle eyed... Gah!

Go judge for yourselves. My Hub is here and the scribd post here. Then leave me a comment ad tell me honestly if you think I was not trying real hard to give good value in my posting...
