    Hi guys,

    I've recently joined Squidoo, and am quite confused by the whole thing.

    I have made a lens:

    http://www.squidoo.com/cars4teens

    Any tips? I really do not know what to do next, haha. I made this lens in hope of promoting my auto insurance site (seen in my signature).

    All help is appreciated!

    Its very easy to create a buzz such as write content on it and then answer questions on Yahoo! Answers related to your lens, and put your lens link in every answer.

    I was wondering how many people on this forum are at squidoo? can't we make a united front to collect more friends and therefore more money??

    Everyone interested can add me at squidoo (Alex_Mayor) i just wrote a lens about Munchausen syndrome. If anyone adds me i will add him too. It is al about getting visitors and comments on your lensen and if you just started this is very hard.

    I am also really confused by this, what exactly is Squidoo? Is it similar to Tumblr or Wordpress where you post up blog posts or content or something? I hear about it being used as a great marketing tool all the time, just don't know how to properly use it.

    Why would anyone join Squidoo. What is the use of it? I never understood that site... :O (I don't say that it is ****, I mean that I don't know what you can do with it).
