Hello - I'm 1Squid Addict - Squidoo Angel (retired) & Giant Squid!
This is my first attempt at a lensography as now I have become a Squidoo Angel! (now retired)
Up until now I have preferred to remain slightly anonymous online. Anyway my name is Grace and I am very pleased to meet you.
What I like in a lens - It is not a secret that my main motivation on Squidoo is income. However the lenses I like to see do not have to be selling based. I like to see content in the form of text and PICTURES.
What I don't like in a lens - I hate spammy lenses (and yes I have made one or two myself) and especially lenses with virtually no content that have been made just to drive traffic to a sales page outside of Squidoo.
BUT I am nice really! and have been known to give lenses 3* for effort even if they were not very good at all.
My Lens on where I Live - Torquay
Three things inspired me to join Squidoo back in the Summer of 2006 (when Squidoo first started) - note 1SquidAddict was not my first account!1. Tiffany Dow's first e-book on Squidoo.
2. The desire to make an income online.
3. Believe it or not.....Mr Lewis Smile's lens on Cardiff which was one of the lenses I saw on my first visit.
So one of the first lenses I built was on Torquay. This is it now.
My Lens on Torquay
In early 2009 I moved along Torbay a few miles to the lovely little fishing town of Brixham.
