Placing your own affiliate links inside you write module can also give you profit indirectly. Lots of people have made lots of lenses and have made a nice profit from royalties.

Hi Jean,
How do you place affiliate links in lenses? (Just using <a href....?) I wasn't sure if we could do that in squidoo. Thanks, Diane

absolutely diane, normal html can be used to place links in squidoo. It seems the most common practice is to become an amazon affiliate and place those on your lenses. You get full commission with the affiliate link, if you sell using amazon modules, squidoo gets a cut.

Squidoo is an awesome way to generate some good search engine traffic. This is a great way to get started online!
I will have to dive into this more in depth to see if I can get results.
How much time does it take to set up as lens anyhow?

It really depends. But for your first lens, I would definitely set aside a day or two so you can play around with it and get a feel for what you're doing. Also, in order to get results, you want to make quality lenses so take a look through the top 100 lenses to see what makes them successful.
But it's all definitely worth it, IMO. I have had a lot of success getting traffic from my lenses and I've made some money at the same time.

So how do you actually make money on squidoo? Is it just from selling things on Amazon and modules like that?

Nope. You also get a portion of the overall earnings of Squidoo each month (royalties). How much you get depends on what your Lensrank is, so the higher the LR, the more money you'll get.
It's explained in more detail here: http://www.squidoo.com/paymentfaq
Of course, you also can make money from selling things, but it's not limited to that.

Thanks Danielle. I'm new to Squidoo, only been doing it less than 2 weeks. I've managed to get one of my lens in the top 100 on the business section but it's ranked in the thousands overall. But no money yet. I'll just be patience and keeping trying.

Congrats on your success so far! It does take a while to make any money, but I think it's definitely worth it because after you've promoted and established your lenses enough, it's basically like residual income (albeit a small one).

I can't have a Google AdSense account because I had AdSense ads on pages that I put on traffic exchanges at one time, so how do I make money on Squidoo without an AdSense account? Kontera?
