I have a wide range of tips to share with fellow Warriors - from teaching you how to write better (or smarter) to helping you learn how to wield the power of free traffic tactics. I'm big on ethics and I'm not shy about pointing out scumbags on my own blog (since it's against the TOS here).

I have made tens of thousands of dollars on the Warrior Forum alone and I'm always willing to help others learn the ropes if they just ask. I wanted to create my Warrior Forum blog to build an in-house area for questions and answers among marketers, so sound off in my comments area and I'll help you as best as I can and if I can't, I'll find someone who will.

There are many ways that you can profit off of the back of Squidoo. If you're an affiliate marketer, then you'll want to increase your earnings as much as possible.

The first thing you can do as an affiliate is promote Squidoo itself. Yes, you can earn money from referring people to the site -- but you only earn five dollars once they've earned their first $15. Instead, try promoting Squidoo-related items such as:

Squidoo E-Books

Squidoo Lens Building Services

Squidoo Membership Sites

All of the above affiliate items came on the site after the first squidoo eBook was written by me (thank to James B Allen, fellow Warrior, for spurring me on to do that). Social Networking on Squidoo was the first e-book that taught Internet marketers how to wield the power of this social networking site. Immediately after, other marketers created their own version of the e-book, lens building services, and Squidoo membership sites.

Bob the Teacher is one marketer who has a Squidoo membership site and he has an affiliate program. I'm not exactly sure what his commission structure is based on percentage-wise.

Aside from Social Networking on Squidoo, which was endorsed by John Reese and Yanik Silver, to name a couple, there are many other e-books that you can promote as an affiliate, which can be found on ClickBank.com or PayDotCom.com. Commissions start at $20 and go up from there.

As for lens building services, most of the people who offer this do it as freelance professionals. They may or may not actually have much experience with Squidoo. Most do not have an affiliate program. But BuildMyLens.com does, and you can earn up to $119 per sale with a VIP pack as an affiliate or over $37 for a single in the sale. You can find that affiliate program here: http://www.buildmylens.com/affiliates/ (there are two links - one if you already have an account and want to log in to promote the lens building service, and one that lets you first sign up for a free account on PDC). You will get your commissions once a month paid directly via PayPal.

Another way that you can cash in as an affiliate marketer with Squidoo is to use the lenses to promote affiliate items. You can promote information products as well as tangible items on Squidoo -- both of which are highly profitable.

Information products that are found on Click Bank and PDC are viable for a Squidoo lens, which you use as a landing page. You drive traffic through your links directly to the product owner's page, and cash in when the sale converts.

Tangible items can be sold in a variety of ways -- through the modules themselves, or via text links and image links. For instance, you can sell Amazon.com items through an Amazon module -- or are you can make a text point through your Amazon Associates account in place that on your lens for 100% commission compared to the co-op revenue that you would earn through a module.

Tiff :-)
