i've been using free blogs for a while. Started posting on wetpaint and hubpages - but my 2-3 articles (the quality is not bad) all have just one link each, all are nofollow. Any idea how long it takes or what it takes them to be followable links?

    hubpages are not supposed to be nofollow, unkess they changed policy recently. squidoo is, but not HP.

    on backlink checks i have run, HP comes up normally, but squidoo as nofollow

    Hub Pages IS no follow if your score falls below a certain level. I don't have time to look that up right now but there is a level. Also if there's more than 2 links to the same domain in your hub, which you said you don't have.

    Yeah, in order for your hubpages to switch to follow, you need to increase your score. One of the ways you can increase your score is to send traffic to the page. Hubpages does this to reward the folks that reward them (more traffic = money for them via adsense, ect.).

    There are ways around this but I won't get into that right now (too much time and it is "black hat").

    Simply try to direct a lot of traffic to your page and you will increase your score.

    You can also join networks of people who vote for each others hub pages as well.
