Do You Squidoo?

I just joined Squidoo today. Needless to say the first lens I have created is called Affiliate Marketing (please head over to give me some “star love”). I joined the Squidoo, to explore it’s potential of generating extra traffic to my website. Not until I have created the lens did I realize that you can earn money as well.

Do you use Suidoo? I am just interested to hear what you have to say about it. If you Squidoo lens can use some link-love don’t hesitated to share it with me and my readers in comments (links in my blog comments do not have “nofollow”). I am just looking for ideas when it comes to Squidoo so if you leave a link to your lens I will make sure to give it 5 stars. I would appreciate if you can do the same.

Here is what I would want to know:

  1. Can Squidoo help your site in terms of traffic/ranking?

  2. Is it good for networking?

  3. Can you really make money with Squidoo?

  4. Other?

    Vlad, I added your Aff.Mkt. lens to my lensroll for that lens.

    http://www.squidoo.com/Datafeed/

    This lens used to outrank me for anything datafeed related. Its still on mt tail ;). I had the datafeed article stub up there for over half a year, before I finished it and moved to my site. It still beats me for “datafeeds” though, but that's not tragic. Two spots on page 1 are better than 1 hehe.

    I forgot about this one. I played there with some of those fancy plug ins that allow ratings and stuff. http://www.squidoo.com/Internet_Marketing_Resou…

    My most “successful” lens was this one. Not commercial unfortunately. Made it to the top 25 in the arts category. I removed a lot of content since I have a site just for text art all by myself since last summer. No need to put the cream de la cream on squidoo 😉

    Remind me when they start selling 3 character lens names for a million bucks hehe… kidding.. another non-commercial lens of mine.

    I get some traffic from the Datafeed Lens and negligible one from the Affiliate Marketing Lens.

    That wraps up my old lens showcase. I let them just sit there and do whatever lenses do. The advertising within the lenses generated, I don't know, $5 ?! revenue over the course of 1 year. Or was it about $3?! … mmmh.. don't know, never cashed the check. hehe.

    Cheers!
