There is an apprentice program that you can join for free in which you receive an interview that Paulie Sabol did with Bob the teacher. This great interview is over an hour long and provides lots of information. Of course there are several attempts in the interview to upsell you to the premium membership, but this is to be expected. You also receive a transcript to the interview if you decide you don't want to listen for over an hour.

You will also receive "How Do You Do, Squidoo?" Orientation Guide To Squidoo. Bob even lets you rebrand this and give it away.

He also sends 7 secrets to the e-mail account you use to sign up with.

You can access this material by clicking on the picture above.

I strongly recommend the free material.

I've never received anything on the Internet for free that wasn't trying to get me to buy some other product. This offer is no different. The premium offer in this case is the Super Kraken Membership. For those who don't know, the Kraken is a legendary giant sea monster capable of pulling a ship to the bottom of the ocean. Since the legend probably came from sightings of a real giant squid, the title fits. The Super Kraken Training Course includes the Apprentice Course and adds the following:

• Video Orientation Guide to Squidoo by Bob the teacher
• Private Consultation: Bob Jenkins and the Fit Bastard (A.K.A. Scott Tousignant)
• Private Consultation: Bob Jenkins and David Green
• SquidooSecrets.com Mastermind 6-Month Membership
• Advanced Strategies Video: SquidooSecrets Extreme Makeover I
• Advanced Strategies Video: SquidooSecrets Extreme Makeover II
• Advanced Strategy: Put an opt-in Box on Your Lens
• Mike Filsaime's Virology: the Secret Science of Viral Marketing
• Dr. Mani's Squidoo Marketing Secrets
• The Super Kraken Newsletter

The private consultations are very similar to each other as Bob takes Scott and David through the creation of their first lens. The audio files all come with full transcripts. I recommend using the transcript for at least one of the consultations because of this.

The price of the Super Kraken Membership when you accept the one time offer is $97. This may seem like a lot, but you receive a good bit of useful material here. One expression I always keep in mind is "you get what you pay for".

There is a lot of material here, almost too much. But most of it is quite useful. There is a lot of material for the squidoo newbie as well as many advanced strategies. I have not had a chance to apply many of the advanced strategies to my lenses, but look forward to using them to increase my lens rank and my revenue. The techniques I have used have added to my bottom line even when my lens rank wasn't in the single digits. This was due to improved search engine positioning because of Squidoo's high page rank. I already got my first ClickBank check based on using some of these principles and it should only increase from here. At least one Super Kraken member has already used the information to get a lens to #1. The rating will of course change over time, but you can check it out here. This is a Buy for the Internet marketer who wants to use Squidoo. Use the banner below to get your free apprentice material today.

Bob has added a Kraken Hunter membership since the review above was written. The Kraken Hunter membership provides many of the benefits of a Super Kraken membership at a much lower cost.
