Making Money Online with Squidoo.com – My Earnings on Squidoo

I spend several years in the search of best ways to make money online. I know that anyone from any country in the world can make money online with no investment. Different people prefer different work at home opportunities but I prefer writing content for money.

At first I used upfront paying sites for earning money by writing content but Squidoo.com helped me to find the real potential of revenue sharing sites. I created several test lenses on Squidoo and was amazed how much money I was getting from them (I compared these rates with sites with upfront pay).

How to earn more money with Squidoo.com?

If you still don’t know about Squidoo, I will review it in several worlds. It is a community, where anyone can create content pages, so called lenses and get a chance to make money online by writing them. Users have a chance to monetize their lenses with Google Adsense, Infolinks, Chitika, Text-Link-Ads, Amazon and Ebay ads. Every member can contribute his/her earnings to charity or receive 50% of revenue. Additionally members can refer active members and get 5 dollars for every active referral. Check out my initial review for more info about ways to make money online with Squidoo.

I created my lens and it earned me more than 7 dollars (this is very good, if you compare to upfront paying sites like Associated Content, which pay 2-5 dollars for every article). And what makes this site even better for earning, I will be able to get paid from this article lifetime (and make even more money if I go on updating it).

There are several keys to earning money with Squidoo:
– Traffic – your earnings greatly depend on the number of visits your lens generates. The better you are at attracting traffic, the more money you can earn
