Do you Squidoo?
Learn how to profit from Squidoo!
Can't Get Enough Squid
By Jessica Bell
I am a squidoo fanatic! I must have about 10 different squidoo pages. I will probably end up with a squidoo page for each of the major categories on my website. They are so much fun to make and they are easy enough that anyone can do it.
So, what is squidoo? Well, it’s kind of like a myspace page (only without the pretty layouts). You get one page to add content to. You can create as many of these “lenses” as you want to (which is a good thing). You can also sell itunes music, ebay products, and more on your squidoo pages. Then you can opt to get paid via paypal for any moneys that you earn on squidoo or donate the money to your favorite cause. Best of all a squidoo lense literally takes just minutes to setup. 
Squidoo is also a unqiue way of bringing traffic to your website. Once your lenses are created you can throw a link to your website on them too. That way when someone visits one of your squidoo pages they will see a link back to your website. It's a pretty neat idea and once you figure squidoo out I'm sure you will just love it!
So, if you are looking for an interesting way to gain some extra traffic or make some extra money then checkout squidoo.com. Not only is squidoo a great way to gain extra traffic and make extra money, it's also a TON of fun!

Squidoo Affiliate Marketing - Get Multiple Listings on the First Page of Google Results
By Ron Passfield
Introduction
This article shows you a way to use Squidoo to get multiple listings on the first page of Google results for your targeted keyword.
Squidoo enables you to create a dynamic interplay between your blog, articles and Squidoo lens. I have termed this interaction, the Squidoo-Google Dance. Hopefully, the reason for the name will become obvious as I explain each step of this strategy.
Basic steps to get on the first page of Google results
Here are the basic steps for the Squidoo-Google Dance:
1. Create a Squidoo lens on "Your Keyword"
2. Start a blog on "Your Keyword" (or re-focus an existing blog)
3. Submit both your lens and your blog to blog directories and the search engines.
4. Write an article on "Your Keyword" with the resource box linking to your blog AND your lens.
5. Submit your article to article directories.
6. Create links from your Squidoo lens and blog to your article(s).
7. Set up an RSS feed from your blog to your Squidoo lens.
8. Start posting to your blog with "Your Keyword" in your post title.
9. Ping the blog directories for your blog and squidoo lens with each post.
So what is happening?
You have created a dynamic interaction (dance) between your blog, your Squidoo lens and your articles.
- Your blog and Squidoo lens are being updated simultaneously.
- Your articles are creating backlinks to your lens and blog.
- Your blog and Squidoo lens are creating backlinks to your articles.
By pinging the directories, you are inviting Google to join the dance. Google continuously crawls the directories looking for updated material.
If you have multiple articles on the same keyword or topic you can also add your article feed from an article directory to your blog and Squidoo lens. Blogger.com, for example, now has provision for adding RSS feeds to your blog.
The result: multiple listings on the first page of Google
The net result of the Squidoo-Google Dance is multiple listings on the first page of Google for your target keyword. These listings can be from your blog posts, your Squidoo lens, your article in an article directory or website, your blog directory entry or even from your Squidoo tags.
If you have monetized your lens and your blog with affiliate product links, the Squidoo-Google Dance can generate increased income as well as substantial traffic.

Squidoo New - How to Sell Your Squidoo Lens!
By Stephen Hartrick
Squidoo has got to be one of the easiest ways to communicate your knowledge and interests to a wide community then any other! Yes you have blogs and free websites but they are nowhere near as quick and as easy as putting up a squidoo lens.
But what happens when you get the Squidoo Bug and end up with Squidoo Lenses up to your neck and earholes and no time to manage them all? Well Why you sell them thats what!
What did you say? Sell a Squidoo Lense? you can not do that can you?
Why yes you can! and as bizarre as it sounds thats what people are doing all the time,not only do you free up some of your lenses you can also earn a couple of dollors for your trouble!
I don't know about you but that sounds like a done deal to me!
There is even a website devoted to just that at www.sellmylens.com where you can put up your Squidoo lens for auction and similar to other auction sites people will bid on your lens or buy it at a buy it now price that you set! and like squidoo it is really simple as easy to put your squidoo lense up for auction, blimey if i can do it then anyone can!
Also remember that as well as selling your squidoo lenses you can also bag a bargain and buy one as well, so just imagine getting a squidoo lens that is already done for you and also has the traffic flowing to it everyday all for a few measly dollors!
I have a feeling the potential for this is going to be huge! and i am so glad that i am actually in at the start of it all for a change!
So if you have too many Squidoo lenses then of load a few over at http://www.sellmylens.com Also while you are there check out some of the other lenses for sale, you could just bag a bargain lens!
