Making Money with Squidoo

Squidoo Homepage

Squidoo is amazing for generating affiliate income. To get started you create your own web page (called a lens) on any topic you want. Choose a lens title with keywords that you would use to search for the topic you wish to promote. Use popular keywords and separate them by a dash if they are not available as a single word.




Add your article content to the lens with a catchy headline. Include a few related pictures to increase the visual appeal of your lens.




It helps if you can use article content you’ve already prepared to speed up the process. Add the content you’ve previously made to your new lens and include affiliate links to related products. To maximize your profit from a Squidoo page you can write a lens reviewing a specific product that you have used. People love to hear first hand how a product performed. The review will direct visitors to the products sales page where, upon purchase, you receive a commission. If you’ve used the product, then find out the most pressing questions and answer them in the content of your lens. Get the reader excited about the product and tell them how it’s helped you and what to do to get it. Add your affiliate link sporadically throughout the content and follow up at the end of an article with a call to action asking them to check out the page.

There are several other benefits to using a Squidoo lens. Squidoo pays you monthly for any click-through revenue your lens accrues for the previous month via Paypal. You receive an email at the close of each month explaining how much you’ve made and how to receive payment. Many marketers are also using Squidoo to drive targeted traffic to their own personal sites to make even more income.

There are several ways to benefit from this technique. The first is to offer something in addition to the affiliate product you are promoting to encourage purchasers. You can offer a free report you’ve created or if you have resell rights to a particular product you can offer that as a bonus to anyone who purchases through your link. Just invite them to make the purchase on the merchant’s site and then have them send you an email with their receipt for the free gift. If your offer is appealing and your bonus is valuable, this can be an effective way to create higher sales conversions.
