http://lewister6232.squidtop.com The wake I leave swimming around the Squidoo sea Tue, 04 Nov 2008 21:36:23 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en Dang. Sometimes it's tough to know where you want to go. Having just come off a stellar month (for me), I'm uncertain just where to set a goal now. What's realistic? I think the $500 a month should be realistic, right? But I'm going to need to make a few ... http://lewister6232.squidtop.com/2008/11/04/next-goals/ to having my first $50 sales day today. Came up $2 short. But wow! I'm already on target to make $500 for the month, including estimated adsense sharing at Squidoo, which just blows my mind. It took me forever to see any kind of sales at Squidoo. Forever. What helped me ... http://lewister6232.squidtop.com/2008/10/20/i-was-_this_-close/ I never would have thought that I would be doing political/election lenses. They just kind of landed in my lap. I would have been working on them long ago to get the SEO going and promotion and so forth. But it is what it is. I just never would have ... http://lewister6232.squidtop.com/2008/10/04/electionpolitical-lens-package/ Sarah Palin is #1 today. Wow. I really didn't think it would be possible to knock Janet out, however temporarily it might be. Traffic has hit what should be a stable 40K a week for a while until the debate in Oct.and election in Nov. So have I done everything I ... http://lewister6232.squidtop.com/2008/09/09/renting-the-1-spot-for-a-while/ It's easy to get caught up in the hubbabaloo over Sarah Palin and miss what's happening with the rest of my dashboard. So here's a few random things I'm noticing. Of my 133 live lenses, only seven of them have had no traffic in the past week. Given that one's my ... http://lewister6232.squidtop.com/2008/09/05/random-observations-from-my-dashboard/ At least, my very first lens is. I think Seth had another post about Squidoo that day, which reminded me that I wanted to come over and try it. I'm pretty sure it took me several days to actually get around to publishing the thing because I did a lot ... http://lewister6232.squidtop.com/2008/08/23/i-am-one-today/ I am a spam magnet today. What gives? http://lewister6232.squidtop.com/2008/08/18/i-am-a-spam-magnet-today-what-gives/ Just because it was time. And because I must copy everything Victoria does. Ya know, it's kind of funny and has the potential to be creepy, I think. I seriously don't mean it that way. I am not in the least bit creepy. Not even a little. Socially awkward at ... http://lewister6232.squidtop.com/2008/08/14/changing-my-avatar/ Getting bad about keeping this guy updated. I think I didn't think through clearly how it would be different from my main blog when I started. I talk about Squidoo all the time over there. Maybe I need to focus that one differently or reduce the Squidoo posts and just ... http://lewister6232.squidtop.com/2008/08/07/getting-bad-about-keeping-this-guy-updat/ Well, part of it at least. I have officially passed the 125 mark of published lenses. And I'm pooped. But I got it done before the Thirty Day Challenge starts Friday (or Thursday night, I'm not sure because of time differences). Hoping to learn good stuff there that will help ... http://lewister6232.squidtop.com/2008/07/30/dum-da-dum-next-goal-met/
