How to Make Money with Squidoo
April 9, 2008 – 12:24 am- Make a good lens
- Make a lot of them
- Rinse and repeat
I know this blog is called “Little Squid That Could,” but I think any ambitious little squid should want to become a big squid someday. When I created this blog, I think I had less than 20 lenses. Now I have about 70, if you only count the lenses in my main Squidoo account. This pay day, my lenses earned about $50. My Squidoo earnings have been steadily increasing these past few months.
Some lensmasters make a fair amount of cash after making just a few Squidoo lenses. But most people who make a few hundred dollars or more each month have a lot of good lenses. When I say “a lot,” I don’t mean 10 or 20 lenses. I mean 50, 100, and more. And these lensmasters are still churning out more. Believe it or not, they’re not churning out garbage lenses. They do good work and make sure their lenses are informative, or at least interesting.
So if you want to earn money with Squidoo, make a lot of lenses. But only do it if you truly enjoy it, because it’s not as if you’re getting paid by the hour.
