The Best Squidoo Lens NOT To Do
Ranked #161 in Squidoo Tips, #16,048 overall | Donates to Action Against Hunger
It just doesn't matter
Important!
This lens is for educational purposes only. I created it hoping that people who do these kinds of lenses will see that it's far better to help others by building lenses with substance rather than to waste their time (and ours) with lenses such as these. This type of lens is appreciated by the lens creator only.
The site, justsellingmystufftoyou.com, is made up. If such a site exists in reality, it has nothing to do with this lens.

Update on 'in use' question: I inadvertantly clicked on a link in an email someone sent; I quickly clicked out because I didn't want a tab opening, but I did see what the answer to the question is. :)
Let's Discuss
What's your opinion
Some people think this lens is telling them not to sell anything on Squidoo.
Is this lens "best practices" or "anti-sales"?
Fetching blurbs now... please stand byThis lens illustrates the wrong way to sell.

It Doesn't matter what I say because this lens is about things that just don't matter.

Well done - a good poke at the many affiliate marketing ebook authors and newsletter writers whose core advice is just to post a marketing article on a popular blog and drive your sales and SEO. Duh, it don't work that way.

this lens is halarious, thanks for the chuckle. But I don't agree with either of the examples here. Selling using humor is wise and hopefully this lens is working out very well for you.

If anyone thinks that you are telling them that it is wrong to sell on Squidoo, then they just aint read the lens properly. Doh!

This lens tells me that selling is bad.

You're not saying selling is bad... just do it the correct way.

Absolutely hilarious parody. But, truth be told, this is no exaggeration. You've done a much better job here of pitching "justsellingmystufftoyou.com" than some people that just thow a lens together in the vague hope of making some money. Heck, I'm ready to buy something--What were you selling again?

I'll have to say that a lens like this would send me running before I got a quarter of the way through it. Great example of what NOT to do.

MiMi -- has this always been your lens? I thought I saw it under Megan's list. The reason I ask is that I cannot believe I haven't seen it before now. I must have been sleeping or too busy working. But, I'm here now! ;)

One of the most creative lenses I've read so far. Great job!
Seriously
This lens may be exaggerated, but I get the same feeling from it that I get when I visit a lens created just to get people to visit the lensmaster's site or that is obviously created just to sell something from the convenient modules offered by Squidoo. Feels rather yucky, doesn't it?If you build indifference into your lenses, that is what your readers will give you in return -- indifference -- and maybe a few choice words about wasted time.

Review and Compare
This lens, The Best Squidoo Lens NOT To Do, is a ME lens. To see a YOU lens, look at Teach Children Character. Notice that it's all about the reader. Notice that it still sells products -- after all, Squidoo is The Power of Recommendation. Either of these lens types is a personal choice you make when you get ready to build your own lenses.
