Excellent tutelage, Paula!, as always. ;D

You are very wise Bev! I think Paula and I discussed this a year or so ago and she said basically the same thing.

My life on Squidoo has had many metamorphosis since I first began. I did do most all quests […]

AJ, all I can say is BRAVO!

The only people that truly “get’ what we do are others that do it, too. We all go through the procrastination, frustration and time management problems. I do find it hard to stay on […]

Happy anniversary Paula! I, too, am glad you joined and have a income you can be proud of, but more importantly, you have built a brand/image of being helpful — passing along your knowledge to others — caring […]

Great article Bev and happy belated birthday AJ! ;D

Again, Happy Birthday Paula! I have enjoyed our talks, emails and definitely benefited from your knowledge — and will continue! Oh, and you are a NUT! I love it!!

Exact same senario here. I joined in August of 2010 and earned a pittance for a while. However, learning and applying what learned to old and new lenses has garnered me a nice income from Squidoo during 2011. […]

As a past case study, AJ helped me out tremendously with this type of advice and teaching me this kw research method. I fixed up an old seasonal lens, added 5 new, related and tightly focused lenses. The results […]

Happy Holidays everyone!

i have been jotting things down in this last quarter — things I want to do better and more of. All will be included in my 2012 plans. I think I am in the percolating mode right now. LOL Great advice as always!

Cynthia is FABULOUS! I got to know her thru RocketMoms and treasure our friendship. She is very saavy with her writing, teaching and wit (that’s my favorite part!) She brings sunshine, laughter and real, quality […]

Though I haven’t been around but a little over a year, I can’t believe all I have learned from Squidoo, and in turn, all the helpful souls I met there. I came to Squidoo quite by accident, and am well on my […]

Diana, also try using a text editor instead of a Word document. The MS Word editor adds things to the code making it not work properly when copied and pasted. Try NotePad instead. That worked for me!

You are so right Paula. Determination, perseverance and time are the big three for me. Through Pro Squids and now Squidlog, I have learned from experienced and successful lensmasters willing to share their knowledge about building an online income. Repeating their proven method over and over and giving it time is key. Time is the [...]

I just celebrated my 1 year with Squidoo at the end of last month — and what a year it has been! I have learned so much from you and AJ and Bev and many others. Diversify is the cry I heard the loudest (especially after Panda) and I have. Along with Squidoo and Wizzley, [...]

I thought about moving content, but because of a lot of the reasons you listed above, decided against it. Age is a big factor. Some of the articles I wrote almost a year ago are now receiving good traffic and sales and are great with backlinks. Like AJ, I am simply rewriting some of it [...]

It is a hard concept for newbies but probably one of the most important (along with keywords). In the last couple of months, I have noticed that I am getting a lot more traffic than I did when I started last year. Partly due to the fact that Google likes some age but it’s also [...]

I never thought of it as “Web Real Estate” but it hits the mark in spades. I am working on diversification and driving traffic. I can see from my own website, blogs and other sites I write for that I am on the right track. Onward and upward my friend!

I have some lenses I am very proud of and others that were made in the “hurry and get it published tonight” mode. Guess which are my favorites and which actually have more sales? I agree, when I am the reader or searcher, I find myself attracted to content that has a personal touch. It’s [...]

Excellent points AJ. I am very happy with Wizzley as an alternative income stream. Only been there a little over a month but am getting Adsense income and plenty of Google traffic already!
