Everyone wants to make money online with Squidoo. Okay - at least most of the Squidoo Lensmasters are looking to make money either for themselves or their charities. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if you could double those earnings?

I read this some time back in one of the emails from fat loss expert Tom Venuto. This was in connection with doubling your rate of fat loss. He put it very simply.

“If you want to double the calories you are burning currently, just double your cardio.

 If you were doing 15 minute workouts, do 30 minute workouts. If you are working out once a week, try 2 weekly workouts”

The message was simple. If you double your efforts, your rewards will be doubled. Simple, isn't it. Reminds me of another quote. 

Success is Simple but not easy – says one of my mentors – Robin Sharma

I’d like to invite you to try it. How many Squidoo lenses do you have currently, 5, 10, 15? What if you went back and doubled those lenses, I’m positive that your earnings will double. It’ll perhaps do more than just that.

The simple fact is that you need to double your lenses to double your earnings. But it may not be the easiest part. If you have 30 lenses, it will take you a while to build those additional 30 lenses – but when you have done that – you will see those rewards doubled over.

Let me give you some real life numbers - Mine!

July 2009 – I had 14 lenses and they made about $20. I had only 1 lens in the top tier.

Aug 2009 – I had 24 lenses (not entirely doubled) but I now had 4 lenses in the top tier with another 6 in Tier 2 and I expect to receive at least $50 for this month.

Sep 2009 – I am on my way to Giant and I will have 50 lenses by the end of this month (I have 34 at the time of this post). Forget about the lenses I have built in September, those same 24 lenses from the previous month have matured and now I have 6 lenses in the top tier and 10 in Tier 2. I expect to make at least $80-85 for September.

Just going through Darren Rowse’s 31 days to Building a Better Blog (one of the best blogging guides- by the way) and I was struck by his story – he wasn’t an overnight success – He says it takes years to build a blog and advises young bloggers to not quit their day job until they have reached a sufficient critical mass.

Applying that analogy to Squidoo, it will take some time for you to acquire critical mass on Squidoo as well. Once you have over a 100 lenses, your earnings would be far more than you would have from only 10 lenses.

I am not even getting into the Amazon/Ebay/Affiliate earnings that you could make along the way.

Simple but not easy.

Keep working on those lenses. Keep adding to your tally.Double your lens count and I can vouch for the fact that you will double your earnings.
