Welcome To My Island

Over the next few months I’m planning on talking about and doing a lot more with Squidoo.  I have a lot more free time now, so I’m going to be working hard on making as many lenses as I can!

How much money can be made from Squidoo?

I think this question is entirely dependent on how hard the person is willing to work.  I have heard of Lensmasters earning anywhere from $0.03 to over $600 a month from their efforts at Squidoo.  While you can earn from Squidoo directly for your lenses, the high earners definitely aren’t relying solely on the earnings Squidoo pays them.  The high earning Lensemasters are using Squidoo to promote outside programs, such as affiliate products that will pay them a commission for each sale they bring.

If you want to make the most you can from making lenses on Squidoo, you can’t solely rely on Squidoo, it is best to rely on other programs to bring you in more money.

How much traffic can I get from Squidoo?

Again, I think this relies on how the person is willing to work. When using Squidoo to send traffic to a blog or web site, it is best to make lenses about topics that relate to your site, and then have your link somewhere on that lens.  By making many popular lenses I imagine you could get a nice flow of traffic going to your site.

The Squidoo Test

I’m going to try and make as many lenses as I can over the next few months, as well as try to see how much money I can make and traffic I can send to this blog from Squidoo. I’ll be recording my efforts and earnings here every month.
