Lens Building & Money Making in a Web 2.0 World

When I first learned about Squidoo, I thought... Awesome another way to leverage my content! But then I realized this little tool was so much more than that. It was a way to focus traffic on keyword phrases and fill those phrase pages or lenses with great keyword specific content. Well as you might have guesses it was very effective.

But the flip side of that monumental advantage was the inevitable leaking of the tool by a so called "internet marketing guru" to his masses of uneducated get rich overnight idiots looking to make a quick buck form adsense or affiliate links. Google quickly caught on and devalued the results. This made the idiots flee the ship like so many rats. Now the tool is stabilizing and returning to its post idiot effectiveness. Try this tool out and make sure your content is up to snuff before you do. Remember you will be under the lense.
