One month ago I started my adventure in Affiliate Marketing. After one month I can tell you that I am definately hooked. Squidoo is a wonderful website, but let’s face it. If you are wanting to make some extra cash, sometimes the Squidoo paydays can seem pretty weak. I love that I can contribute a portion to charities on my lenses.
Squidoo is a wonderful base to begin your affiliate marketing adventure. What a incredible community it is, full of support and new found friends that I treasure. I didn’t want to loose thaat, so I took that and combined it with my affiliate marketing idea and built some lenses just around that idea. I also updated a lot of my other lenses and added affiliate marketing links to them.
In all honesty, my largest payday yet at Squidoo for one month has been $29.00. After one month of building some affiliate marketing lenses on Squidoo, I have just reached $100.00 in affiliate sales and will still get paid from Squidoo on top of that. Which means I have sold $1000.00 worth of merchandise for my affiliates after only one month! It is very encouraging to me to think that I can continue to expand with Squidoo, art, affiliate marketing and my home business will continue to grow with me into a business that I can be proud of.
I love the affiliates that I am working with, they are all reputable and respectable. The quality of the merchandise seems good. My customers have been just amazing, the only hard thing for me is that I don’t know who purchases through my affiliates to thank them for their business, because they are so important to me.
So I am giving a thumbs up to affiliate marketing and can honestly say for me, it has proven to be well worth the effort and will be very rewarding for those that would like to make some extra money. With the economy the way it is, every little bit helps!

I have been an affiliate of this company for some time, but the high quality of the product was needing a really classy looking site to help sell the product.
This is what I choose:
Fine Cutlery and Gifts For Men
I just like the colors, and the fact that there would be no side ads. I’m not going away from Squidoo, but for this affiliate it was really calling out to me for something just a bit different.

As an artist and photographer, I can tell you that the two go hand in hand. When you look through the lens of a camera, you look for that perfection that you see with the eye of an artist.
The greatest artist there ever was, is and will be is our creator. Every single time I am memorized by the beauty of watching the show of a sunset or sunrise, it absolutely takes my breath away. I feel it is a gift to share in that beauty as it is presented to me, frame by frame, as he lights the sky in a fire of colors constantly intensifying until the crescendo that fills your heart with its beauty and takes your breath away, leaving you with a feeling of having just received one very special gift.
Photography is Art

Everyone does love Harry Potter, right? Well maybe not everyone, but I sure think the characters are adorable. They have captured so many of them exquisitely in some of these music boxes and water globes.

Which is your favorite character from the book or Movie?

Are you stuck on what to buy someone that is very special to you, but that special person has absolutely everything?
Buying for someone you love can be hard sometimes, because you want their gift to be so special that it brings tears to their eyes.
A Christmas gift should be:
Personal, those gifts that may entertain for a while, or be “useful” are not always the best choices for a gift. A gift needs to show the person you are buying it for just how special they are to you. There should be no doubt when they open their gift how much thought went into the gift.
A gift should last a lifetime. Think about what carries on from generation to generation.
A gift should never be forgotten. Have you ever been given a gift and forgot who gave it to you? It feels awful to do so.
I found the perfect christmas gift, birthday gift, or just because gift! They have these beautiful photo engraved jewelry, you can engrave a message on them too!
Some are wonderful memorial’s of fathers, grandfathers, firefighters, policemen or just a great way to express how that living person is your hero!

For the longest time I have loved music boxes. As a little girl I remember the little music box with the ballerina on top that spun as she played. I would watch her dance.
A little older and it was the music box store in the mall, The San Francisco Music Box store. I could spend hours watching the animated music boxes dance, they reminded me so much of going to disneyland, it’s a small world to me is just a giant music box that you could float through in a boat, how cool was that to the little girl in me!
As an Adult I have a large collection of them, all of them gifts from the very special people in my life, given with their love.
You can only imagine my delight as became an affiliate for the San Francisco Music Box Company! The pleasure I have experienced in building this website delights me. It was almost like shopping for them….oooh, look at that one….have to have that one….oh I love the tune on this one…look at the detail on that one!
I present to you:
Music Box Collectables

Please check back often as I will be expanding this music box collection.

Two More Sales this weekend!
This is really exciting for me. I see so much potential for making a good income using affiliate sales. At least a good supplement for my current income. I’m always wishing I had more time to create, modify and learn more about this. But the other two jobs I have make time a little tight!
Two sales this weekend, equaled my entire total to last months royalties on Squidoo lenses alone! Captain Squid was right, affiliate sales is where the money is at.
Today I modified my top money making lens: .Horse Calendars
I think it looks a lot better. I also added more Gorgeous Horse Calendars, which may make it harder for those that are trying to find “just one” they like. Because there are so many beautiful Calendars. Horses are so beautiful, to me they represent “The Free Spirit” that all of us want to be.
I also made some additional changes to my highest ranked affiliate lens I have on
Squidoo: Adorable Boxer Gifts.
I think it turned out well too! I’m still struggling with the centering html. It would be nice if it was as easy as Squidtop, or Word…just highlight and center whatever you wanted to. Goes to show that we are all still learning as we go.
My goal is to go back through all the lenses I have created and modify them to reflect what I have learned over the months at Squidoo.
