Promoting your business with Squidoo

Squidoo is a website launched in October 2005 that makes it easy for anyone, for free, to set up a single page on a topic he or she knows or cares a lot about.

Basically, Squidoo is a network of user-generated lenses --single pages that highlight one person's point of view, recommendations, or expertise. Lenses can be about anything, such as ideas, people or
places, hobbies and sports, pets or products, philosophy, and politics.

Lenses aren't primarily intended to hold content;more emphasis is placed on recommending and then pointing to content on the web.

Users who create lenses for just about anything are called lensmasters.

A lensmaster uses the large amount of useful tools know as modules to provide links, feeds,
abstracts, and lists to users who are trying to make sense of a topic. For example, a single lens could point to Flickr photos, Google maps, blogs, eBay auctions, YouTube videos, and other links. Lensmasters are
encouraged to promote personal agendas, expertise, causes, products, and opinions.

There are two ways to make money with Squidoo: Online marketing The first way is through the splitting of revenue. As people come to your lens and interact they may click a link which leads to a product that they buy. Or they may click a Google Adsense ad which generates click revenue. Squidoo splits this revenue with its "co-op" of lensmasters.

Squidoo states that about 5% goes straight to charity, first. Then 50% goes to the lensmasters. 45% goes to Squidoo. The site is estimating that nearly half of all the lensmasters on the site are donating their royalties to any of 45 featured charities, ranging from NPR and The American Heart Association to smaller organizations like Chimp Haven and Planet Gumbo.
