okay, let’s follow up yesterdays admittedly ambitious post with a bit of clarification as to how I am going to go about getting to this goal of earning $2,000 a month from Squidoo lenses.
First, there are a few basic things to get out of the way:
Fully transparent – All of the lenses I make are [...]
mac33 has an excellent post on lensrank decay on one of his lenses and the impact of traffic on his lensrank.
It is an excellent example of how a few ticks of traffic to your lens don’t necessarily mean you will instantly climb to the top of the lensrank ladder. If your visitors arent engaging with [...]
Recently, after the demise of the Discovery tool and with Squidoo Groups having faded into (mostly) obscure places in the far reaches of Squidoo, an old stand by for optimizing your lens has re-emerged into viability – tagging your lens.
Tag pages are once again indexable by the major search engines. Fluffanutta has an exceptional review [...]
Recently (May), Ebay released some policy changes for their affiliates, not allowing them to put links on domains they don’t ‘control’ instead of content.
This has caused some big time ripples as it is the latest in a string of moves by eBay that increasingly makes their affiliate program more and more hostile towards its own [...]
I see remarkably little written across the various blogs, forums and other sites that populate the Squidoo community about lens labels. I can only assume that not very many people use them in their accounts or they are not used very effectively.
This is truly a shame as I find that lens labels are perhaps one [...]
Fluffanutta was awarded with a lens of the day award for his totally outstanding lens on how to use CSS in Squidoo.
For those of you that haven’t seen much of fluffanutta’s work, he has several tools that are absolutely essential for managing lenses and getting the most out of squidoo.
I use all of these tools, [...]
I totally missed that Glen published an Interview with The Captain from last year on the Lensroll.com blog. I just re-read through it (we initially did the interview last year sometime) and it’s surprisingly still quite relevant to the way I continue to build lenses today.
Definitely worth a read. I had forgotten I’d written so [...]
Okay, so you probably haven’t made $1,000 from Commission Junction and Squidoo quite yet but hopefully the video series of the past few days has proven useful to a few young squids out there.
As a special follow up treat, if you can’t seem to watch the videos in your browser for whatever reason you can [...]
The last two videos in the series (Yes a bonus! 2 videos in one day! ) are all about how to use Commission Junction’s powerful reporting features to drill down to each Squidoo lens (and each link if you want) to determine what is working the best and which products are converting the [...]
This is the 3rd video in my Commission Junction training course. If you already have a good understanding of how commission junction works but are unsure how to use it to your best advantage with Squidoo than this video is definitely a must watch.
The video covers how to insert products, descriptions, and images into your [...]
