			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In the spirit of the payday inspired post here&#8217;s a little teaser image of my earnings in my main squidoo account since inception:</p>
<div id="attachment_455" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 510px"><a href="http://tankdogpro.com/captainsquid/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/earning-growth1.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-455" title="Squidoo Earnings Growth" src="http://tankdogpro.com/captainsquid/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/earning-growth1.jpg" alt="Squidoo Account Earnings Growth" width="500" height="205" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Squidoo Account Earnings Growth</p></div>
<p>Now, every month payday invariably brings about discussion of Lensrank, that magical formula that helps determine how much your lens makes in a month.</p>
<p>Today, lets focus on one aspect of lensrank that is discussed some, but often not given the weight it deserves : clickouts.</p>
<p>I recently did an experiment and removed RSS feeds from about 40 of my lenses (Squidoo&#8217;s analytics do not as of the writing of this article track clickouts from RSS feeds in your stats) and replaced them with eBay modules (which do track clickouts).</p>
<p>the results were immediate and impressive. The clickouts that weren&#8217;t previously being captured are now being tracked properly.</p>
<p>And my lensrank SOARED on those lenses and has continued to stay very strong.</p>
<p>The moral of the story? Clickouts can make you more money, lots more.</p>
<p><strong>So, make sure there&#8217;s stuff to click on on your lens.</strong></p>
