10 Reasons I Love Writing for Seekyt with Squidoo for Online Passive Income

Ranked #517 in Internet, #25,140 overall

Why not write for Seekyt too?

I find Seekyt. is an excellent platform for earning Amazon and AdSense and/or Chitika income. After Adsense ads were recently pulled and reinstated, the community spirit has been excellent and the traffic never stopped!

The site is still considered small but has 5000 passive income writers aboard. There is an excellent community spirit, and each writer has their own blog to use as they wish.. Sign up here to join Seekyt and write as much as you wish to earn online income.

I would like to explain why I love writing for Seekyt and Squidoo and how they complement each other in a passive income in slightly different ways.

It is important to spread out your sources of income on the Internet. Putting all your eggs in one basket has the possibility of ending poorly if the one site is affected by Google or your income stream is cut off if AdSense, Amazon or other affiliate programs are suspended for your location or for you.

Pages are short and simple on Seekyt, so they are fast to write

The simple format of a Seekyt article posting page means that you can produce articles quite quickly and effectively. It is great for text rich articles that do not require lots of images, but these can readily be added with links if you want them.

The minimum length of a Seekyt posting is just 2000 characters. This often works out to much less than the 400 word minimum on other sites depending on the word lengths. The user interface is so simple that I often find myself doubling or tripling the minimum as I get into my stride writing articles.

The AdSense sharing is a generous 70%

Chitika is now added, with option of all Chitika ads coming soon.

AdSense sharing is 70% on Seekyt. You get 100% of the income from the 70% of AdSense and Chitika impressions on pages you create that are hosted by Seekyt. This is a generous share, considering you do not have a website to maintain.

What is unusual and great is that there are no minimum number of articles, frequency of publication or any other limits. those writing for Webanswers or Infobarrel know this removes some performance pressure.

This 70% is automatic to everyone when you sign up at Seekyt whether you create one article or a thousand.

If you have niche sites and other articles that earn adsense, of course we don't get it added directly to our own account here on Squidoo, so the Seekyt AdSense clicks will get you to that $100 payout threshold that much faster. If you write on Infobarrel too, Chitika is a supplimental advertizer there too.

CTR is the highest on Seekyt than any other writing site I write for

For both Amazon and Adsense. There is a new efficient multicolumn layout that has increased Amazon visibility significantly and my click through sales rate has doubled since then.

You want to make sure there is text above the fold, and it is easy enough to do on Seekyt.

70% Amazon share is awesome!

Amazon product reviews are allowed and encouraged on Seekyt when helpful to the reader, saving them time, money and hassle. There are 4 ways to send shoppers to Amazon through your affiliate links. Remember you still have AdSense impressions too.

1) Text links that are known to convert well
2) Linked images which attract the attention of many readers
3) A product specific module at the bottom of your text where you can specially designate up to nine items on Amazon
4) An optional search form at the bottom of the page where you designate the broader Amazon product category

Admin gives tips on finding keywords and a backlinking process to bring you and Seekyt success!

When I started on Seekyt in September 2011, the site was unique in that one of the menu options on the main page was promising keywords with high potential for income. Admin had done keyword research for the writers of Seekyt to ensure success for both.

Instead of feeding us for a day, Tyler has been kind enough to teach us to fish ourselves. By that I mean there is now a wonderful article that you can link to from the main page that gives the basics of and actual specific for keyword research to find high search and low competition keywords your self on topics that interest you in his Keyword research tutorial.

It is well worth signing up on Seekyt after you have read this and started looking for great keywords so you can start earning quickly. As can see you are in god hands with the site owner.

Reasonable numbers of links and linked images are allowed if they help the reader

Some passive income writing sites are very rigid in the number of outgoing links in an article. It never fails when doing Amazon product reviews, that you have a list of three or five great products to share with the reader. At Seekyt, you are allowed text links to Amazon which of course are known for readily converting into sales. Some other sites insist on using only their Amazon modules, but admin on Seekyt wants you to use them when you are using the text links or photographic links in the body of the article.

As it stands the rules at Seekyt are a "reasonable" number of links that are immediately helpful to the reader. So as long as you do not overdo the links and write naturally, you do not have to worry too much.

Admin is dedicated, approachable and constantly improving the site

Admin on Seekyt works hard to keep spammers out and attract quality writers and articles, while tweaking the site so it looks better and better. Fostering a writing community is obviously a goal and important to him, and it is a friendly positive group of writers. Tyler is working on the code for ding the option of 100% Chitika ads for those who want to diversify or no longer have the Adsense option open. He listens to our suggestions and does his best to accommodate!

Articles useful to the reader have a great chance of being featured on the front page

At any given time on the main Seekyt home page there are now a number of featured categories, so writing an article in a featured seasonal or interest category will get readers eyes on your articles more quickly!

All articles you post are immediately sent to Twitter by admin for rapid indexing

I follow @Seekyt on twitter, and I love to see my articles promoted online while I am on Twitter doing other things. It shows that admin is willing to do a little work to promote both our articles and the site. Articles are indexed quickly and Google traffic soon finds my articles.

Combination of Seekyt and Squidoo has many bases covered!

Those more experienced article writers will know that not every topic or article is ideal for a particular affiliate monetization. Sometimes it is impossible to tell whether an article is better as an AdSense earning article which is a little more passive as people search but not necessarily buy products. Or as an Amazon type earning article where there is an actual product that has to be sold before you receive payment.

With both methods of income available on the page on Seekyt, you have the best of both worlds. From your results, you can further refine that niche and write another article on Squidoo if you want to expand the Amazon side of the article. If AdSense is doing well, expand onto Infobarrel (another excellent site) or write more related articles on Seekyt.

For those of you who are brand new to Internet marketing, you may not understand all of what that means. But the upshot is Seekyt is a great place to experiment and practice and learn which articles will make you money the best way. Becoming efficient in recognizing the best opportunities for a topic and length of article, and turning that into an income, will save you many hours of work and help build your passive passive income quicker.
