Squidoo is similar to eHow in that you earn money through a percentage of advertisement revenues. However, with Squidoo you are not limited to how-to articles. Squidoo also makes it easier to add links within your writing. You can hypertext words, or embed links directly into the text of your article, or lens, as Squidoo calls it. You can also place affiliate, or referral, links throughout your writing with Squidoo. If you want more flexibility for your writing, Squidoo is for you. Below are 3 easy ways to earn money from Squidoo.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    The easiest way to make money writing for Squidoo is by placing affiliate links through out your lens. If you are writing a lens about golf, why not embed plenty of advertisements for golf balls in your article? What better way to make money than promoting products that people want to buy?

  2. Step 2

    Another easy way to make money from Squidoo is by referring other writers to Squidoo. Squidoo’s referral program offers $5.00 whenever someone you refer earns their first $15.00. Why not refer someone you know loves to write? My referral link is in the resource section below for anyone that wants to sign up. Feel free to leave comments about your Squidoo experiences also.

  3. Step 3

    The last way to make money writing for Squidoo is by earning a percentage of revenues from advertisements. Squidoo displays their advertisements on your lens. Each time one of these ads is clicked, you and Squidoo will each earn a percentage of the profits. Squidoo allows you to donate your money to charity. Squidoo makes it easy to set up lenses on your favorite subjects. Simply place links to your favorite websites and write about them. Before you know it, you'll have a great Squidoo lens that allows you to earn money online through ad revenue.
