- I always like to help anybody new to lens building on Squidoo. When I started here, people helped me and I like to pass that on. Don't struggle on your own and get frustrated because your lens doesn't look as good as you want, you don't understand which modules to use, you've worked hard on a lens and it gets no traffic or you have other problems. Contact me or one of the other mentors here. The warm and helpful Squidoo community is one of the best things on the web.

- If anyone is interested in setting up a Charity Partnership with Squidoo, I would love to walk through everything that's needed. Also, I have a soft spot for newer squids from the Southern Hemisphere, from places like Calafate, Capetown, Canberra, Christchurch and the rest, anyone who is struggling to get started and would appreciate a one-on-one helping hand

- This is a great idea! I can help with newer lensmasters that need their lenses tweaked. I also know the basic html for lenses (adding links, centering images, that kind of stuff). I love giving critique and helping point people toward helpful lenses. I can also help anyone wanting to sign up for a chaity partnership. Feel free to contact me through my bio page.

- I can help people edit their lenses for spelling, punctuation and grammar. I also created a lens about my offer to proofread lenses (free) for anyone who'd like to borrow my extra pair of eyes. All anyone has to do is use the Contact Me link and ask. Happy to help!

- This lens/service is a great idea. Thanks for offering! One general question I have (I will contact individual "helpers" for specifics - I need real help ;->) is this: why has the "books" category on Squidoos main home page not had any new lenses/books featured there in weeks and weeks?

- Hi there. I just started creating lenses today and I find Squidoo to be such a cool resource. I'm a Passion Parties consultant and I'm trying to figure out the best way to make use of Squidoo to promote what I do. I know that my lenses are pretty amateurish and I have been using the same content (which I wrote of course) on multiple lenses, but the ones I've created should give you an idea of the direction in which I'm going. Any specific advice would be really helpful. Right now my site is getting minimal traffic and I don't have the means to pay for links or SEO. I really appreciate your help! Thank you.

- I find that most lensmasters are willing to help. When I see a fantastic lens I often send a note to the lensmaster through their Contact Me button to ask them about their Squidooing techniques.
I am a Giant Squid and have been Squidooing since Sept. 2007 with over 120 lenses I would love to help you on you with your lensbuilding.bug
