    You should make you website link clickable using the format below

    <a href="http://www.yoursite.com">your site</a>
    Code (markup):
    You probably want to add some more content on there as well.

    Short answer: no.

    Your lens has no purpose and isn't even complete.

    Also, if you're relying on a share of Adsense money, you'll be disappointed.

    Your lens will not get out of WIP (Work in Progress) mode unless you add more modules. The minimum is three, not including the introduction or guestbook modules.

    That lens will probably earn you about $0.06

    Hang in there. Your lens might not get you much right now but if everyone waited until there sites were perfect then the internet would still be a whole lot of nothing.

    Keep building and the money will come

    I looked at your page...I agree, you won't make money with it! However, it is a start. It seems like most of the people who are successful on Squidoo continue to make lenses ...and lots of them to figure out what works. Posting your link for your lens to stumble, and topic craze sites willl help too...as well as sites like this.

    Look me up there. Here is my newest lens:

    Keep it up!

    Your lens might not make you might right off the bat, but if you keep working at it and give it sometime it will start to be in profit mode.

    Ok so there is no money that way, I know i need to add like CJ or other affliate links/banners in my lenses to get more profit from them.

    If I do a lot of lense, don't you think I will make ok money from Google Adsense?

    Thanks a lot for the tips mate, your lens is great and I see you are not only depending on the Google Adsense but have other program banners where you can make other income from the same lens. That is what I am going to do with my next lens - CJ banners. :)

    Thank you and all the best to you also man!

    Agree, it need some time to get more views and bonus..I realise indirectly I will be benefiting from the traffic on the lens because it bring traffic to my blog too and give me content/reviews to post on the blog..am I right? :)
