New Networking Site - Zurker - Better Than Facebook?

2012-02-02T15:45:00.000-08:00

I don't know how true this is, but I read recently that Facebook has 'peaked', meaning that it really has no more room for expansion. Add to that the fact that many Facebook users, both past and present, are still ticked off at the way Facebook allowed information to be 'slipped' and that it's new Timeline feature is not liked by everyone, and I find it is just the right time for a replacement.

FREE SEO Report Takes The Mystery Out Of Optimizing Your Websites

2012-01-27T20:11:00.000-08:00

I came across this little gem and wanted to share it with you all. If you have ever been struggling with keyword research, where to put your keywords once you have chosen them, and how many times your keywords should appear in one page, then this FREE SEO report takes a lot of the mystery out of it. I have struggled with keyword research for a long time. I 'think' I have the right idea, but

My Initial Backlinking Strategy Revealed

2012-01-23T13:43:00.000-08:00

Over Christmas I published a couple of lenses within a couple days of each other, and BOTH of these lenses were indexed and receiving traffic within 90 MINUTES!! Okay, I can almost hear you saying 'BS', but I assure you that after checking 3 times I was definitely getting traffic from Google within an hour and a half of hitting the publish button. Not Twitter traffic, not Squidoo traffic (

Brand New Opportunity To Make Money At Home - Complementary Site To Squidoo, Hubpages, Wizzley, Webnuggetz

2012-01-22T12:12:00.000-08:00

First things first: I owe my readers an apology. I got so wrapped up in the Christmas season and failed to make time to pass on all the great tips I discovered over the past couple of months. But I am back here now, and will be making blog posts on a more regular basis from now on. I want this blog to be a source of great tips for anyone that needs / wants them, and seeing others succeed is

Doing Your Black Friday Shopping Online With A Full Stomach....Yummmm

2011-11-24T19:32:00.000-08:00

It doesn't matter how many times I tell myself I won't eat too much, here I sit on the couch with my stomach stretched and no energy to do much at all....lol. So typical. I don't like or eat turkey so I can't blame it on that. I have been in the US for almost 10 years now, and Thanksgiving still does nothing for me, but this year we cooked at home just for the 3 of us, and this lady that has

Amazon Does It To Me Again

2011-10-07T20:14:00.000-07:00

I'm not happy with Amazon.com, and I know that I am not alone. Just go to the Affiliate forum on Amazon and you will see comments stating that the affiliate has had enough of Amazon. Amazon.com is a HUGE player in the online affiliate marketing world, and they know it. With Squidoo lensmasters, Amazon is the most used affiliate program because Squidoo makes it so easy by providing handy

My First Website And Taking Control Of My Online Business

2011-09-07T14:27:00.000-07:00

I finally 'bit the bullet' and got my very own website. Okay, okay, it's not fully functional yet, but I have the 'bones' of it, and am working diligently on getting it to the point where someone might actually want to view it. I am excited and nervous all at once. I am not very knowledgeable when it comes to making Websites, so I am being painfully slow in getting it all up and running. I

Squidoo Sales Lenses vs. Resource Lenses

2011-08-30T15:52:00.000-07:00

How many times has this been hashed out in SquidU? If you have been participating in the forums then I know you will have seen this argument come up time and time again. Well, it has raised it's head once again and so I thought that I would share my thoughts on this debate, and of course your thoughts are welcome also. For anyone not familiar with the argument for and against, let me give you

First Birthday On Squidoo And How I Celebrated

2011-08-30T02:25:00.000-07:00

Yes, that's right! I have been on Squidoo (and therefore online) for just over a year now. What have I achieved in that time? So much that it will be difficult to list it all. When I started online I had no idea whatsoever of what I was doing, or where my efforts would take me. Today, I can proudly say that I have a much better understanding of how affiliate marketing, SEO (Search Engine

Loving Zazzle And The Potential It Has To Offer

2011-08-17T23:58:00.000-07:00

I am working on two things with Zazzle, one being the beginnings of my very own store, and the second is my brand new Squidoo account DeeZazzled in which I am featuring other people's products from Zazzle. As my store inventory grows, I hope to be able to feature some of my own products, along with other people's and then eventually all my own products. That could take me quite some time as I

Depression And Squidoo: Discovering A Supportive Community

2011-08-10T01:29:00.000-07:00

A couple of days ago I was having a really rough day. While it is not normal for me to do so, I felt so incredibly low that I decided I would share what I was feeling in the Squids Gone Wild section of SquidU forum. I very rarely talk about my depression episodes, but I felt the need to reach out to some people that I felt would probably understand. Given the large numbers of people that

It Has Taken Almost A Year To Get Where I Am

2011-08-06T16:35:00.000-07:00

When I first started researching How To Make Money Online almost everything GENUINE that I read advised me to be prepared to put in a lot of work hours, and to be patient. I already had it in my mind that this was going to be something I would be doing for the rest of my working life, and that the efforts I put in today would serve me well for the future. I was, and still am, looking for a

Tidy Desk; Tidy Mind - Or At Least That Is The Aim

2011-08-02T23:50:00.000-07:00

While perusing through some photographs that I had on my iPhone, I came across one that I had taken back when my office looked (to be blunt) like hell! It scared me, and at the same time reminded me of how NOT to let my office space get. I couldn't work in that mess back then, and I wouldn't want to now. Why? Because it is not conducive to productivity in any fashion. How can you work when

What Is A Wizzle?

2011-07-29T14:59:00.000-07:00

Far from what the word wizzle conjurs in your mind, it is actually much like a lens, only it is created on a fairly new platform, at Wizzley. Wizzley.com is run by several experienced Squidoo lensmasters, and is making a great presence on the web. I signed up for at wizzley. com a couple of months ago, but due to the many changes that have been going on over at Squidoo I had not managed to

RedGage, Backlinks And Revenue Sharing

2011-07-27T22:35:00.000-07:00

At the moment RedGage is definitely my favorite place for backlinks. It may not be the BEST option for backlinks, but it is easy to use and gets fairly good results traffic-wise. With RedGage you are encouraged to post links, blog posts, videos and photos. Photos seem to be particularly popular, and there are some fabulous photographers displaying some of their work on there. I personally

Squidoo Amazon Modules or Your Own Affiliate Links

2011-07-26T19:36:00.000-07:00

Having been an Amazon affiliate until recently when Amazon dropped California affiliates due to the Nexus tax law, I know how exciting it can be to work your way up the commission ladder. Before I got dropped I was earning 6.5% and on my way to 7%. For anyone that is not aware, using the graduated commission system, you earn 4% on the first 7 sales, and once you make your 8th sale ALL the sales

I Won The Raffle Today At RedGage!

2011-07-26T00:33:00.000-07:00

I logged in today and got a pleasant surprise! I am the lucky winner of the $25 raffle. Okay, it isn't a huge amount of money, but it really has put a little song of joy in my heart today. I always knew that RedGage is a good site, both for making a little bit of money, AND for the backlinks, but I didn't expect to win the raffle. If you haven't joined RedGage yet, then I strongly suggest you

Adding The Bookmark Widget Module To Your Lenses

2011-07-24T14:46:00.000-07:00

One of my favorite modules is the Bookmark Widget. I use it twice on any lens that is long enough to warrant it. I have a small number where I only use it once because the lens itself is pretty short. I use it directly below the intro module and again just above the Guestbook. You can see it in action on my Jewelry Tree Stand lens. When I am modifying the lens I remove the title and leave the

Procrastination - Are You Guilty?

2011-07-24T13:28:00.000-07:00

I have just finished reading a great post about procrastination and it got me thinking about all the things I procrastinate about when it comes to my Squidoo lenses. Backlinking and bookmarking are the first things that come to mind. I'm not a great one for doing either, but I do when the mood carries me (which isn't often). Making lenses is so much more fun than the promotional side of things,

Make Sure You Get SquidooHQ Emails

2011-07-23T12:22:00.000-07:00

I know that a huge percentage of lensmasters do NOT visit the SquidU forums. Because of the time I spend there, I am familiar with quite a few of the contributing lensmasters and get to recognize their style, so much so that I can pretty well predict their response on certain threads. For those that do NOT use the forums, either because they are not interested, don't have time, or as is going

Solid, Sound Advice For Squidoo Lensmasters

2011-07-22T13:29:00.000-07:00

If you started on Squidoo with the thought that it could make you a sound income, then you are right. However, and this is where I have to do the bubble-bursting, it is not going to happen overnight. While Michelle89 has become successful in a very short time, she put in hours of study before starting her first lens. For most of us it isnt going to happen that way. I have a goal, a plan, to

Squidoo's Spam Filter And How To Avoid It

2011-07-21T01:57:00.000-07:00

Wow..........that's about all I could say when I first read in the SquidU forum of how some lensmasters, many of them well-established and trustworthy members, have received emails from SquidooHQ advising them that some of their lenses have been caught by the anti-spam filters. What a shock it has been to everyone that received that email. Not only was there no warning whatsoever, but everyone

Another Way To Make Some Pocket Money Or Score Some Nice Goods

2011-07-19T18:13:00.000-07:00

I signed up for this on a whim because it was recommended by a Squidoo lensmaster that I very much admire and respect. I havent done anything with it, and then when I was going through some stuff today I found a $25 TJMaxx card that I will probably never use and thought of Sidetick! Why not put it on there, have people bid on it and then get something I can REALLY use? It isn't everyone's cup

BlogFrog - New Opportunity For Squidoo Lensmasters

2011-07-19T14:19:00.000-07:00

See the BlogFrog banner to the left? This is a new community created expressly for Squidoo lensmasters. Still in its infancy, there is potential for us all to create backlinks (and who doesn't want more backlinks?) for our online endeavours, i.e. blogs. I hope that this community will grow and prosper but it will take effort and interest from lensmasters. Check it out and if you feel it has

Getting Paid To Write On Squidoo And Getting Past That Bump In The Road

2011-07-15T12:22:00.000-07:00

It was payday at Squidoo yesterday, and for some this is their monthly income check. For others it is pocket money, or money to be put towards a large purchase in the future, or perhaps even that yearly family vacation. Being dropped by Amazon.com has really impacted my earnings in a negative way. Previous to getting dropped I was making around $60 a month from my affiliate links and this
