Squidoo was set up in late 2005 and has become one of the Internet’s Top 500 websites with a huge worldwide audience. Squidoo as your co-op partner will not only generate income for your website but much-needed traffic as well.
How You Earn from SquidooBefore we start talking about generating website traffic through Squidoo, let’s focus on another main benefit of working with Squidoo and that is earning revenues. Squidoo is a network of lenses. These are single pages containing a users sole perspective on any topic he is an expert on. Lenses can be about anything under the sun and usually focuses more on recommendations and linking to other websites than creating only original content.
A Squidoo User is called a lensmaster. His Squidoo Lenses earns through advertising. Share of revenues goes as follows: five percent for charities, 45% for Squidoo, and the remaining half for users.
7 Uncomplicated Tips on Making Squidoo Lens to Generate Traffic for Your Website
Tip #1 Start by creating a fun but detailed Introduction Block about your lens/promotion. This is the first thing that people will see of your lens so you have to work on making it attention-getting. This is where you explain the what, why, who, and how about your lens, maybe also what are your qualifications for creating this kind of lens, and why you’ve created such a lens. End with an invitation to get more of the stuff your offering on your Squidoo lens by providing a link back to your website.
Tip #2 Whatever kind of lens you are making, be sure to use a variety of content for it. Besides providing the requisite outbound links and content, consider also adding video, graphics, images and other kinds of visual effects. When you are using images, make sure you write enough text to surround the image.Tip #3 Squidoo is all about posting recommended links. Your list should always include but never be limited to your website. It is understandable and acceptable that you are recommending your website, especially if you truly have valuable content to offer. But look for other websites to recommend, also. Choose your recommendations carefully; if you just link to anybody, people might lose interest in checking out your lenses.
Tip #4 Provide a brief personalized description for each link you provide. That includes describing your website as well!
Tip #5 For revenue modules, do not just choose the first group of products that come up for your targeted keywords. Take the time to check them out one by one. Choose the products that appeal to you the most; this will make it easier for you to describe and recommend them to your readers.
Tip #6 Use as much original content as possible. It doesn’t have to be all factual; your opinions would do as well. Personalization is, as always, the key to quality online content. Secondly, don’t write irrelevant text; if readers realize you are just wasting their time beating around the bush to make your lens appear content-packed, there is a very good chance they will not come back after this.
Tip #7 Use content from your website but don’t display it all on your Squidoo lens. Display the second best content then tease them with hints about something better and which they can get when they visit your website.
Eliminate the Hardest Part of Article Marketing! May 9, 2008

If you’ve been reading my “musings” for very long at all, you know that I’m BIG on producing quality!
I love marketing with articles because it’s one of the quickest, easiest, free ways to obtain leads and traffic.
Well, for the past 4 years I’ve been warning against article spinners, spoolers and generators because every one I’ve used in the past has generated useless garbage!
As a matter of fact, I’ve NEVER promoted any type of article spinner, spooler or generator…never!
But, I’ve always had my eye out for a program that could take the hard work out of article writing. I honestly never thought the day would come when a piece of software could create a “readable” article, let alone one that provides good information!
Leave it to Jonathan Leger to prove me wrong!
You’ve probably already heard of the software I’m about to mention because since it’s launch, only weeks ago, it’s been talked about all over the place!
It’s the latest version of Instant Article Wizard called “Instant Article Wizard Pro.”
You can see how it works here:
Let me tell you why I like this software so much. When you create a new niche site, where do you get the information?
You do some online research through authoritative sites in that niche and compose articles around what you’ve learned, right?
Well, IAWP takes the research AND writing out of that process!
It crawls the authoritative sites in the niche you’re targeting, takes small snippets (yes, that’s totally LEGAL) and composes a high-quality, readable, user-friendly article from it!
Now, all you have to do is change a few phrases, so it’s a bit more unique and you have a quality article!
It can take 30 minutes or more to research and write on a topic you know little to nothing about.
With IAWP you can do it in no time flat!
Highly Recommended!
To Your Success,
