Anyone use Squidoo to make money?

    Hey guys!

    Has anyone had success making a few extra bucks on squidoo? I've posted several articles. It is certainly a lot of fun but I'm wondering if it is worth the time and effort.

    I have squidoo too , but i am not making any money from it. You have to treat your squidoo page as your main website, not only a satellite or a junk page. If you are doing good posting and quality stuffs then you will succeed. Squidoo has one advantage - your page will be part of a very high pr domain and also i have seen very good results without doing anything for offseo...

    I find Infolinks being used in mostly low content quality sites. Inferior quality content will generate less and less revenues in the future.

    Put your effort somewhere else like in hubpages or bukisa. I get to earn few bucks from time to time in these sites thru adsense and page views.

    I know of people who earn a respectable amount of money from Squidoo. I'm not one of them as I only have the one lens (I earn a trickle from it every three months or so). I lost interest fairly quickly, not that the site doesn't have potential - it's just that I prefer to earn my money upfront.

    I have a blog on Squidoo, but it's not for making money. It's because Squidoo is a community. There are lots of people who make money with Squidoo but you just have to be active in posting and in the community. You must make friends, if they like what you write they will share your work. This is how squidoo works. You just have to be an "active member of their community.

    Are there such sites like squidoo and hubpages except for specific niches? For example, I think you can probably call squidoo and hubpages an "article directory" right? Another term I have heard is social publishing. So let's say you wanted to setup a similar article directory or social publishing site for a topic such as 'make money online'. You even go out and buy a domain to match your niche and put a script up to get started.

    Do you think it (ultimately) would be better to have a niche specific site or a site that does every single topic imaginable like squidoo or hubpages? (setting aside for the moment the PR value of a site like squidoo and hubpages).

    Yes I have earned some money from Squidoo.

    So keyword research
    Take some time to write a well written and well formatted article and then hit the publish button.

    I would only use Squidoo to link back to my site. Don't here too much about money making from there though.

    Yes ,
    it's a power and blessing of web 2.0,
    if you have enough visitors it is yours otherwise ,
    a bad luck will swallow you.

    Personally, no, but I am aware of several successful marketers who use Squidoo regularly. Granted, none have ever shared with me exactly how profitable it specifically is. I would think they wouldn't bother if it wasn't worth it.

    I do not use Squidoo to make money but together with Hubpages, it is a good part of my SEO plan.
