Make Money Online with Squidoo

If you have not heard of Squidoo before, here is my official Make Money Online review on there content community. I will go into what Squidoo can offer you and what ways you can make money..

What is Squidoo..?

Squidoo is a massive online community of professional content writers writing what is referred to as a lens. This in many ways is the same sort of name as what bloggers refer to as a post but within Squidoo they give it the trendy name lens. Online Squidoo writers can write lenses of many different interests. These can be used to generate traffic for other websites such as blogs with links or just to discuss general interests. It can also be used to make money for yourself or for charity with the traffic the lenses generate. One of the best elements of Squidoo is there massive community base so you can easily find like-minded interested people in any niche you write about.. This can be massive for any online business owner..

Ways to Make Money with Squidoo..?

I have been only using Squidoo for a few months now but have already realised there unique potential. There are so many ways to make money within there system to make it easy for any online writer. You can use ebay ads for product lenses, you can use inline ads like infolinks.. You can use amazon and even generate a percentage of earnings from adsense ads that are clicked from your lenses.. Chitika and the list goes on.. In a way the more traffic your lenses get the more money you will earn..

“Squidoo uses a traffic conversion and revenue share aspect to pay publishers.. I cannot say how much, but it is very generous..”

Not only money can be earned for lenses, but you can also generate traffic for offsite website niches.. Eg a blog that is similar can be linked to in the lens which can then get referral traffic which in the end could lead to a sale or even more traffic.. Well thanks Squidoo..

As for how easy it is to get paid, Squidoo pays from a threshold of $1.00 or higher via Paypal.. You can choose your best option after making a Squidoo account.

So why use Squidoo..?

Other than being able to make money with all there related ads you can plug into the lenses, but you can also make lenses to create affiliate traffic as well.. The list is endless. You can use them to cross promote your blog or ecommerce site or sell more products from quality lens, or even talk about your day.. You can even use them to give your earnings to charity.. Whatever it is i am sure one of these benefits listed will suffice..

“Help find like minded people that are interested in you niche…. Whether on Squidoo or on another website..”

You maybe wondering why use them if you have a blog already, well you don’t have to.. But if you do, you can use them to attract more interested traffic to your blog.. If you do not have a website you can use them to make money online alone and become apart of there community.. Maybe it will be a good step for those wanting to delve into the online world without starting a website or blog yet.. Like a beginners guide to creating content..

Other than these benefits listed above, it is also a place of quality content, not like another article provider.. All lenses created are ranked on quality (called Lensrank), if you write a good lens you will get a better rank and better traffic.. If it is a badly written lens you will get no rank.. Meaning no traffic.. Reward based on quality and traffic referred.. Win win for both publisher and Squidoo.. Quality content, meaning quality community, meaning quality traffic for you..
