One Year of Squidoo and 368 Lenses Later
I started using Squidoo one year ago today (give or take 24 hours) and in that time I’ve:
- Built 368 lenses (just over 1 a day!)
- Been a Citizen Squid, Giant Squid, Squid Angel, forum mod, and all around Squidoo helper.
- Started a blog about Squidoo (this one)
- Started an auction site for Squidoo Lenses
- Started a lens directory for Squidoo
- Started a chat room for Squidoo
- Started a Squidoo Blog Platform
- Made a TON of new friends!
- Failed miserably at running groups on Squidoo
- Gone from $2 my first payout to over $2,500 in profit from Squidoo last month
- Had a lens earn $1,000 in a single month
- Made 749 posts at Squid U.
- Found out I love teaching people to think.
It’s been a busy year to say the least! And I honestly hope next year is even busier. To everyone who has helped along the way (and there’s a ton of you) : Thank You.

Received your email on your busy year - just wanted to say congrats!
Pretty awesome accomplishment, I must say…now…if only I will be able to follow in your footsteps?
Right now that’s a big LOL.
Again, congratulations and all the best to you!
