Hubpages has a option that shows the revenue potential (number of $ signs). Does it really shows the revenue potential? What is ur exp?
Haven't found it appropriate so I don't check it anymore.
I find it helpful and have started deleting rough drafts based upon this criteria. Essentially, the revenue is simply not there or the competition is dominated by others out on the Internet. It is a good starting point but not an absolute.
If you love the subject - go for it but know the revenue potential - if that is your goal MAY not be there.
A number of Hubbers have stated that guide has not held true for them. I am guessing because they have dominated the subject or have perfected the promotion - they are doing something very right for Google to reward them adequately.
I hope you mean the criteria in general and not the dollar-sign metrics that show up on your hubs. I just checked my top three earners and they show $, $ and $$$ respectively. The HP metric is way off in my experience.
@SharkAl - Just navigate over to one of your hubs. At the top of the screen you should see a "Stats" button. Click on that and then on "Metrics."
Where is this $ sign? I didn't know about this, sounds really interesting.
Where is the $ dollar sign within hub pages that reflects the hubs earning potential? Just curious to see it.
Found It! - When you are on your own hub, click the 'Stats' tab. Then another tab, 'Hub Metrics'. Here you will see $$$$$ in the column. Does that help?
It may work for other's hubs but it does not reflect the earning potential on my Hubs.

Hi,I've signed up and am ready to start making hubs in my specialised subject, but I was wondering what the earning potential of hubbig (if that's a word) actually is. I realise it all depends on how attractive your pages are and how good they are etc, but what are people actually earning? I am not...

What does Hubpages use to come up with the Revenue Potential stat?A hub that says Revenue Potential $$ has earned about $100 while hubs with a Revenue Potential of $$$$ haven't earned anything at all.(Yes, I read the little blurb next to it.)

How to make good, wise and clever use of "Revenue Potential" Data.I have observed that the more links I add to a Hub, the revenue potential drops. Lesser and Very Relevant Links works best and takes the Hub on top of search engines. For e.g, the above data is from one of my hub that has...

I am a bit confused on this. Some of my Hubs which does not get much traffic shows a Revenue Potential of $$$$$ whereas most of my popular Hubs shows a revenue potential of $ or $$. Can anyone throw some light on this.
