What The Heck is Squidoo?
Squidoo is the popular publishing platform and community that makes it easy for you to create "lenses" online. Lenses are simply web pages, kind of like flyers or signposts or overview articles, that gather everything you know about your topic of interest--and snap it all into focus. Like the lens of a camera, your perspective on something. Write and share pictures about your garden, your latest trip, Christmas gift ideas, crafts for kids, how to grow the best tomatoes, your favorite casserole recipe or ???? That is the great thing about Squidoo, you write about whatever interests you!
How do I make money for CAER?
Squidoo is FREE to join and you don't need to know any programming languages to make a page. Once you've created a page (lens), you earn money by displaying Google adwords and recommending products on your page through programs with Amazon, eBay, CafePress and more. Squidoo keeps track of your earnings and will send the money directly to your designated charity (CAER) at the end of each month. Get Started Today! Be sure to watch the step-by-step video after you sign up.
We know it might sound a bit overwhelming, but believe us when we say that ANYONE with a computer can do it and it is quite addictive once you get started. At least check it out before dismissing it!!
