![]() But the royalty increased more than 100% compared to April 2007. ![]() There are lens master who actually gives all of the earning to charity, which is also currently practiced by Squidoo team.ĭuring the period of May 2007, I only have 4 lenses. However, charity is a good thing, so I still put 10% allocation for it anyway. So as long as the balance is there in the account, it will be deducted for charity every month. That means my previous balance of $1.55 also contribute $0.16 to charity. From my total balance of $5.42, $0.54 (10%) is allocated for charity this time. Squidoo’s calculation is not what you think is fair. If you are observant, you will notice that how come my previous balance is $1.55, not $1.71? It is because I set 10% of the earning to be allocated for Squidoo charity funds.

In the process of promoting my blog articles, Squidoo actually pays me royalty for doing marketing for myself. Of course, in the lens itself, I pointed the reader to read some of my articles regarding home loan.

Squidoo updates the royalty and earning of lens master’s account on July 6th for the period May 1st-31st, 2007. However, this has to be a collaborative endeavour to protect the photographer's interests.Refer to my previous post on how I made passive income from Squidoo, I made $1.71 before May 2007. You can use Squidoo to create a single display or multiple showcases to bring into sharp relief the nuances and distinctive features of a photographer's work. Photographs on platforms such as Flickr do not show a photographer's work in the best light. I would give the photographer the opportunity to suggest changes, additions and deletions and invite their feedback in the Guestbook Module. Acknowledge the photographer's consent It is important to publicly acknowledge the photographer's consent to your Squidoo lens. In this case it is best to use a text/write module where you can embed a hyperlinked photo using some basic html code. However, this module does not show landscape photos in the best light. This is very suitable if you want to create a grouped effect and the photos have a narrow focus (for example, birds or flowers). Use different modules to showcase the photographer The Flickr module on Squidoo creates a montage of hyperlinked, thumbnail size images. This can be done by way of the sticky note widget, the black box module or any other module that suits your planned purpose, proposed layout and desired effect. Provide introductory notes to each module To break up the images on your lens, it is useful to have introductory notes that explain the module that follows. Make sure that what you choose shows your photographer's work in the best light. Have a clear focus for the Squidoo lens You can develop your lens around a single theme (for example, a location) or a group of sub-themes (for example, waterways such as rivers, lakes, oceans).

I would also recommend that you stipulate that your direct income from the lens will go 100% to charity (this requires only a click of a button on Squidoo). You should ensure that your lens has a non-commercial focus or your selected photographer is likely to refuse you permission to use their photographs. There are a number of things that you should do to gain their permission. ![]()
