What Do You Think? Is It Possible to Make Money From Squidoo

I am relatively new to Squidoo. My profile tells you I became a member In September, 2007, but I have not really given much thought to squidoo at all.

I joined because it was the thing to do if you were going to have an internet marketing presence online. But sit around and make those little meaningless mini websites called lenses? I don't think so.. I have big deal internet marketing stuff to do.

Boy was I dumb or what?

Read on...

Squidoo Is Internet Marketing

Squidoo IS Internet Marketing. Squidoo is loved by Google. And you will find yourself on the front page of Google for a search of your keyword that you built your lens around, in no time at all.

What do you mean you didn't use keywords? In that case you are not an internet marketer. Simple as that... Or is it?

Am I trying to say, that a person could make money online without keywords and all that other stuff that goes along with internet marketing?

Yep!

Tons of people love Squidoo because it gives them the outlet they need for their art and creativity. Others love Squidoo because of the amazing and nurturing community that is Squidoo. These lovers of Squidoo are simply not interested in making money on online...NOT!!!

You can even make money online without keywords

I am not kidding.

Who Needs Keywords? Well Maybe You Do.

Those people that love Squidoo for it's freedom of expression and warm lifelong friendships are still able to make money on squidoo. Yes, you heard right. Squidoo has several features in place for you to make money with, Google adsense, Amazon, eBay, Cafe Press. Squidoo takes there share to keep the place running and then shares the rest with their lensmasters (that's you, the one making lenses) based on their mystical algorithms which has a lot to do with how well your lens ranks. But you can make money. That is the poiint.

However; if you happen to be interested in making a bit more money, you are going to want keywords. Keywords are the words that people type into Google to find whatever they are looking for and coincidentally you are selling. Do this, combined with the amazing love that Google has for Squidoo that gets you on the front page of Google in no time at all, and you make sales.

It's a fact. Find something that people want and are willing to pay for and offer it to them at a good price= sales. That means money for you. It can be done quite easily on squidoo.

I have proven it.

You can too!

vallain says:

You need to have an inquiring mind, some basic computer skills, and be dedicated.

ajgodinho says:

No special talent required, only a positive attitude, passion for learning, patience, and perseverance! :)

BusyMOM says:

the more I get in to Squidoo, the more I love it. I'm no genius, but I think anyone who pokes around in Squid-like fashion will see the potential.

ColorPetGifts says:

It's easy to make lenses and participating on Squidoo is so much fun :)

Mar1anneC says:

The great thing about Squidoo is that if you keep working on your lens(es) a little bit at a time, they start to pay off over time. I certainly can't make my living here, but I do get a a bit of extra grocery money which comes in handy.

AltogetherLeather says:

I think you've just got to have the time! :D

Tipi says:

Do what you love and do it with Key Words!

blackhat says:

Well mostly what you need is dedication for what you do. You need to beef up your blog with content and most importantly have a good traffic base. And then you must work up your blog to start earning some serious cash. If your new to internet marketing and adsense this blog will help you on your way http://basscash.blogspot.com

EelKat says:

no, you don't. You just need the time and will power to devote a lot of hours to it.

pkmcr says:

With passion for your subjects, determination to provide quality information for your readers and the ability to focus you can succeed!

QueSea says:

Talent, you say? Everyone's got talent. That's what's so great about Squidoo. We all get to share those we have.

Pantherart says:

All you need is you and fun

Of course! An art major coupled with internet marketing finesse is key

Tiggered says:

Oh yes. Writing about your passions sounds lovely, but anyone believing that's enough to make money here is in for a major disappointment

WhiteOak50 says:

I don't know. I think there is so much to learn that it is a slow process, but I believe it can be done without a degree :0)

    I hear a number of lensmasters saying that Squidoo pays their bills. It might not be their whole income but that all depends on how expensive a lifestyle you are trying to maintain. I certainly can't live on what I make on Squidoo, but it gives me a very nice supplemental income.

    Squidoo is a wonderful place to create lenses about whatever topic you are most interested in. Write from your heart, write for people who are interested in the same topics you are and the money will just come.

    I think Squidoo is a great platform and community through which you can make a decent amount of money of you are willing to learn and apply yourself, remain patient, and consistent. I hope to spend more time on Squidoo in 2012. All the best to you and stay blessed! :)

    I have been living on my Squidoo income with no other income and it is still pretty tight. I'm now getting a little over $1,000.00 a month in the last 4 or 5 pay outs. I work more hours a day, everyday than most can but I do love it all and am grateful.

    I would love to make a living with squidoo and it is my goal to make more and part of my living here. I did not know about that kindle subscription by Susan.

    Promote, Promote, update and keywords. And like Correen always says, Keep on, Keeping on. Fantastic thought provoking lens!

    I'll check back to see more answers. I'm interested in the long-time lensmasters responses. I'm just a newbie, though I've created a lot of lenses in 2 1/2 months.

    Well done! I don't make that much on Squidoo, but I make enough to count on it. And I had to give them my tax #. lol

    Bookmarked this lens, had a feeling ill need to come back here. I like it.
  • debnet Jan 17, 2009 @ 2:12 pm | delete
    I don't think you could make enough to support yourself personally. As an additional income it would be beneficial.
  • AndyPo Jan 17, 2009 @ 6:50 am | delete
    Great lens. I'm not sure if I will make a living, but a reasonable amount of extra money at least.
