Now Squidoo travelled a lot and now at different level of success. Their recent changes in their policy is quite interesting and will do the magic in coming years as well.

It’s really hard work. Mine hasn’t generated anything substantial yet.

Same for me. My lens had about 6000 visits in four months and ZERO revenue.
The adsense layout is awful. Anyway I can’t complain because I didn’t bother to check if I there were any customization options. My fault.

Although I still think is a good idea, I won’t be spending more time with squidoo. But I will keep my eyes and ears open.

Hmmm…

Fooled around with Squidoo a few months ago.

My lens was ranked around 175 for a while then completely dropped off the radar. Adsense income is negligble so I don’t really waste time with following the herd…

Better models focus on…

Thanks for the heads up. I just received my first check/PayPal payment from Chitika so I think I’m gonna stick with them!!

Cheers!

Darren,
I think this will have a huge impact – both in new lens started and a big surge in more content being produced.

Why? Bloggers are always looking at new ways of earning revenue.

The ony issue I see is that the risk/reward is not too good. It seems you have to really roll up your sleeves (nothing wrong with that) and do the hard stuff and the reward aspect is still an unknown quantity.
