As many of you have probably heard, yesterday Google announced the launch of it’s knol community. (Coverage from Mashable) Often accused as being a ‘Wikipedia‘ killer, Knol is designed to be a ‘moderated place for experts to share their knowledge’… hrmmmm… That sounds remarkably like a certain other site I use (not to name names [...]
Do you currently have goals for where you want to go with Squidoo? I know I do.
From great big dreams all the way down to little bitty chores, I’ve got all kinds of Squidoo goals.
Some Lensmasters want to pay for their kids college.
Some Lensmasters want to give a million to charity.
Still other Lensmasters want to [...]
In addition to the ebay challenge for lensmasters (Which ends today so get your lenses in!) there’s also been another challenge that has been stealthily sneaking around Squidoo.. the SuperHero Challenge!
This one is a little bit less demanding than the eBay contest. Simply build 5 lenses about regular everyday superheroes that you know who make [...]
Note: If you are coming into this little adventure late make sure and catch up with the first parts of my ebay squidoo challenge tips narrative: The Intro and Bonus offer, targeting ebay users, featuring fun products, building out an ebay niche.
I finished up my final submission for the Squidoo – Ebay Challenge contest. [...]
Sorry for the lack of Ebay Challenge Updates folks, I got a little carried away. On Saturday morning I found a niche on eBay Pulse and was going to create a second ‘product’ lens to show you folks a few other little tricks.
Unfortunately the niche got a little carried away with me and here I [...]
Alright all you squids and squidettes hold on to your tentacles.
The first lens by the good ole Captain for the Ebay – Squidoo 10 Day Challenge is live and ready for action.
The first topic I chose to cover was eBay shipping and postage scales. I chose it for several reasons:
I know the topic – I’ve [...]
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 [...]
The light posting for the last week hasn’t gone by without something getting done. I’ve developed a custom blogging platform for Squidoo Lensmasters!
I’m Proud to introduce SquidTop!
What is SquidTop?
Squidtop is a site that allows you to create your own blog to talk about your squidoo lenses, accomplishments, progress, or any other topic you desire. What’s [...]
I’ve been playing around with the Squidoo Module Development Kit and have been making some pretty good progress.
I’ve made rough drafts of a few new modules in the past week or so and met with some pretty good success. I think I’ve got a pretty good handle on how squidoo has the system set up. [...]
I was going back over some of my payout records for squidoo and I realized something that made me do a very hard double take. I believe that it’s actually better for lensmasters and they make more money when squidoo uses the tiered adsense sharing program they currently have in place.
Before I explain why, here [...]
