Squidoo Lenses For Sale

I have so many Squidoo lenses to try and keep up with. And most of the lenses that I am focusing on these days are sales lenses. So I am doing some spring cleaning and clearing out some of my older lenses as well as lenses that I don't want to keep. Many of the websites for sale are $5 Squidoo lenses. So have a look and see if there is anything that may be a fit for you.

How You Can Earn Several Income Streams From 1 Simple Squidoo Lens

It still amazes me that I am earning a few hundred of dollars every month online without investing one single penny. And yes, most of this money is earned through Squidoo Lenses. But my online earnings don't just come from Squidoo. In fact one simple Squidoo lens can earn me money from many different income streams which is so cool!

I thought it would be fun to show you how you can earn money from 1 simple lens. The example I will use is my Adorable Easter Bunny Pillow Pets lens.

This lens is less than 2 months old. It was created March 1st 2011. I created it for Easter. Now that Easter is over, here is my results....

Through Squidoo, I sold 1 Pillow Pet.

9 pillow pets sold!
But I also do direct linking on my Squidoo lenses as an affiliate of Amazon. (this way I don't have to split the money with Squidoo). Here are those sales....

Not only that, but I had a purchase through an affiliate link that I have at LinkShare.

I will also earn money from Squidoo that they share with me from Google adsense as well as other advertisers.

And it doesn't stop there.

I promoted my Squidoo lens on Redgage. Redgage pays you for views which is really cool. I upload all of my Squidoo Lenses at Redgage and this gives me tons of traffic.

Join Redgage

When it's all said and done, I will earn from 5 different income streams! All generated from one Simple lens.
When people ask me how I earn hundreds of dollars each month with Squidoo I tell them, create a lens (just like I did above). Then Repeat with another lens. And so on and so on!

Have Fun!

How to Sell Squidoo Lens

When someone buys a lens from you. You will want to go to your paypal account and send them an invoice for your lens. Just log into your paypal account and click the tab that says "request" money.  Type in their e-mail and the amount you want to be paid. Click goods and then type a note if you like. I always say something like thank you for the purchase of abc lens or something like that. Click Send.

Wait until you have been paid.

Then go to your Squidoo dashboard and look down the left hand side of the page where it says transfer a lens. Just simply follow the instructions.

Keep in mind the buyers Squidoo e-mail and Paypal e-mails may be different. So be sure to find out from your customer which one to use.
Have fun flipping Lenses.

Why Do People Buy Squidoo Lenses?

Buying Squidoo lenses is a great way for a "newbie" to get started on Squidoo with a few lenses. Since the lenses are already created they just need to do a little tweaking. And another advantage for a newbie is that, depending on who you buy the lens from SEO is good. So you don't have to worry so much about keyword research.

Other Squids buy lenses simply because they don't have the time to build their own lenses but they enjoy Squidoo and earning money. Buying Lenses from an established lensmaster is a great way to build a base of lenses when you don't have the time to create your own lenses.

But another reason people buy lenses is simply because they want the url. So for example imagine if you wanted to do a lens about a topic but the url was already taken. You might decide to buy a lens simply because of the url.

I have seen many lenses on Squidoo that have only a few modules and the content is total crap with spelling errors. I think to myself, what a waste of a good url. If this happens to you, contact the lensmaster and ask them if you can buy the lens. Make them an offer. Think about it, you could buy the lens for $5 and then totally revamp it into an amazing lens.

Have you ever purchased a Squidoo Lens?

Make Money Selling Squidoo Lenses

Over at Squidoo you have have heard people mention lens flipping or selling a Squidoo Lens. And I never ever considered selling off my lenses...until this past Christmas when I was struggling to keep 300+ lenses updated. I went through and realized that I had several lenses that I could part with for the right price. So I decided to start offering a few lenses up for sale.

The first thing I did was try to figure out the best way to let people know that I was selling lenses. So I created a Squidoo Lens to promote my products.

Squidoo Lenses For Sale

Then I needed to decide what to sell the lenses for. And it really is up to you how you want to do it. I prefer to uses the Squidoo Lens Valuation Tool as a guide. Again this is only a guide but it gives you a good idea what your lens is worth. Keep in mind a Christmas lens will be worth more in the fall then in the Spring and you also need to consider any affiliate sales that you generate. For example, in the last quarter of the year, I sold well over 100 board games though direct linking with Amazon on my New Board Games Lens. Yet the value according to the valuation tool is 12.74. I will probably never sell this lens but if I did I wouldn't accept less than a few hundred dollars, because that is how much I will make this Christmas on it.

I generally sell off lenses that haven't really aged yet.  I find that with proper keyword research I can generally get a lens indexed within a few days. But unless it is a really hot item it takes several months for me to really see substantial income from that lens. So I may decide to take the cash now by transferring or selling a lens to another lens master. This way I am helping them out as well.

Is Selling lenses right for everyone? No. But it seems to be working for me. I just keep creating new lenses each day and flipping some of the older ones. It is fun and it brings me extra income. Last month I earned an extra $375.00 by flipping my lenses. Which is just really cool.

My Squidoo Lenses Created from May 16th until the 21st.

My most recent lens is Man Reunited With His Gorilla. This was actually a news story that I saw on the today show this morning. It is such a wonderful story about love between a human and an animal. It reminded me of the feelings I had when I first watched the Christian the Lion.

I also made two Big Red Bow Christmas Lenses,  Holly Jolly Christmas in Plastic Canvas and Christmas Pajama Party!

And here are the rest...

300 Squidoo Lenses by Christmas

Since my Christmas Amazon and Squidoo Earnings were so pleasantly big, I made a decision that I would build at least 5 new lenses a week. And I have been pretty successful. As of this moment I have 191 lenses. So I was thinking today that if I just average 3.5 lenses a week, I'll have 300 lenses by Christmas and thus, hopefully tripling my amazon and Squidoo Earnings. :)

So as I've been building these lenses, I've noticed that it is a little bit more difficult to keep track of them. So I have decided to post all of my new lenses here each week. This way as I refresh older lenses I can still keep track of my newer ones.

What are some of the tricks that you have found to keep track of your lenses?

New Widgets!

One of the perks of being a Squidoo Giant is being able to test out lots of new gadgets on Squidoo before they go live. So over the past few days, I have been having fun playing with the new side widget. It works just like all of the other modules on your Squidoo lens, except these show up on the side. With the widget you can add an Amazon Spotlight, Featured Lenses, Squidcasts, or your Blog RSS.

This has really been fun. I think it really makes a difference as well. I have updated a few of my lenses and added the widget. I've also created a couple new lenses that display the new widgets.

Here are my two lastest lenses using the widgets. Gotta Love Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) and Gotta Love Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner)

I had so much fun with Squidoo in 2009

And am eager to see what 2010 will look like with my Squidoo Earnings.

It has been a great year. The last few months my Amazon sales have been terrific. But Squidoo isn't just about the money. It is just plain fun. I love being able to write about what I love. For me Squidoo is a hobby. It is very relaxing for me when I create a new lens.

Amazon and Squidoo

I am getting great results so far this holiday with Amazon and Squidoo. So far I have had 6 sales in November and 2 in December. It looks like December is going to be a great month with Squidoo Earnings. My lens Warm Snugly Slippers was the last sale. I sold two pairs of slippers. How cool is that!?

If you have any Squidoo Lenses, I suggest you make sure you have an Amazon module on all of your lenses, even if it isn't a sales lens. For example if you have a lens about Snow or How to Build a Snowman, you could ad an amazon module that sells gloves and scarves or snow shovels. Make it fun and watch your earning go up!

If you have been wanting to read the Twilight Series by Stephanie Meyer, but just haven't had the time, then this collection may be the answer for you. These audio books are really fun to listen to. Audio books are great for people who would prefer to be read to or for those who spend a lot of time in your car.

This is my bio, I can update it later....

Warning.....Venting....

I'm not sure why it irritates me so much when I go to peoples squidoo pages and they have a very nice lens that is very thought out, yet the bio says..."This is my Bio- I can update it later".

Maybe it is because it makes me feel like they are hiding and don't want me to know "Who they are" or maybe they are just scattered and really don't care.

I just know for me, blogging and yes Squidoo is a blog, is about connecting with the reader. As as reader, I want to know who the writer is.

I'm just curious, Does this irritate anyone else or is it just me?
