The last few modules I use are: the big arrow module for a big call to action at the end RSS module Guestbook module The Big Arrow Module: I use this for a big call to action near the bottom of my lens.

October 2, 2009 By 19 Comments
We're going to keep moving through this Squidoo lens tutorial to the second module in the lens. The first text module. I like to use the first text module to focus on some of the features of the product. What I don't do is copy the bullet point list from amazon and paste it in my lens. Nope. Don't do that. :( What you do want to do is look at the bullet point list and see what the best features about your product are. (and there may not be a bullet point list. There may be a paragraph, … [Read more...]

October 1, 2009 By 27 Comments
Of all the modules used in Squidoo the one I see mistakes (if you can call them that) on the most is the big arrow module. I guess people find it a little confusing, and that's probably because Squidoo makes it so simple. :) I thought I would go through today and show you just how to put your information in the Big Arrow module so you don't get your code showing through on your lens. (I'm gonna do a pictorial walk through and then I'll shoot a quick video ~ trying to make everyone happy … [Read more...]
Do You Need a Squidoo Lens Review?
September 24, 2009 By 48 Comments
When you create a lens you probably check the stats ~ you know the search volume, the competition, how many other lenses there already are on Squidoo for your topic. Hopefully you create lenses only when those numbers look good. I've had times when the numbers have looked PERFECT. I just knew these were going to be killer, money making lenses, and yet, sometimes they do nothing. That happens to everyone once in a while, but if it's happening to you ALL the time there's probably something … [Read more...]
Creating a Visual Call To Action ~ Step by Step
September 23, 2009 By 167 Comments
In the Squidoo Christmas Cash Blueprint it mentions that you should use a "visual call to action". This is an image you create with the picture of the product, the money they can save, and a mention of Amazon. The whole thing is clickable and gives people a great visual image to click on and get to Amazon via your affiliate link. People have been asking exactly how I make these visual call to actions. So I'm gonna show you. Now before I get started I have a couple confessions I have to … [Read more...]
Let’s Get to Know Each Other!
Social media gives me the opportunity to get to know you better, as well as giving me the opportunity to share more of me than just the "internet marketing" side. I share multiple facets of me, and my life on social media, so if you choose to connect with me don't expect it to be 100% internet marketing... because it's not. :)
