Making Money by Selling Affiliate Products on Squidoo

One of the simplest and most effective ways to make money with Squidoo or online generally is by making affiliate sales - or put simply - selling other people's products from which you then earn a percentage.

The second way to make affiliate sales on Squidoo is to sign up to one of the affiliate networks like ClickBank or Commission Junction and start promoting their products on your lenses.

For Example

I am a member of Commission Junction - which costs nothing to join CJ

If I want to promote one of their products on Squidoo I can simply use a Text/Write module - write a short recommendation for the product and then copy and paste my affiliate link into the module.

For example

This jewelery store has the best diamond engagement rings I have ever seen!
Really Super Jewelry, Really Super Prices. Shop SuperJeweler.com today!!!
Or I can even input one of their banner adds in the same way - just copy and paste the code into the module.

For example


Really Super Jewelry, Really Super Prices


So if I put these ads on lenses where I have written some good information on diamond rings, how to choose an engagement ring etc. Then it is likely that visitors to my lens interested in buying a diamond ring will click on the links and possibly buy.

Different Methods for Selling Affiliate Products on Squidoo

There are several different methods of building a sales lens to make affiliate sales on Squidoo. You may decide to only feature products from one supplier from Commission Junction or you could use Squidoo's own Amazon modules to feature a particular range of products, or a combination of these plus eBay and others.
