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, [...]
Lensmaster and Giant Squid Kab stopped by the chat room the other day and asked if it was possible to create a module for lenses that showed the most recent update from your blip.fm account.

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 [...]

I’ve written before on some ‘must have’ tools for Squidoo Lensmasters. That list has gotten a little longer with the newly released Squidoo Toolbar from SquidUtils.

Okay, there are 8 plugins that you absolutely can not live without if you want to create Squidoo lenses and manage them effectively. I find myself using all of these quite often for various tasks.

Sometimes I’ll see some advice on ’succeeding with Squidoo’ that just makes me shake my head in wonder… especially when it comes to basic SEO advice for lenses. Now, I’m not really an SEO but I’ve built a giant pile of lenses and I’m starting to get an idea of what works and what doesn’t.
So, [...]
