With two weeks to go before the next wave gets inducted, the Giant Squid Hopefuls are busy tidying up and polishing their 50 fabulous lenses. I thought I’d help them out by featuring one of the most helpful and inspirational Squidoo lenses I’ve ever seen, EelKat’s Secrets to Squidoo Success .
At EelKat’s Secrets to Squidoo Success Giant lensmaster EelKat shares her tips, tricks, ideas, and suggestions for making truly spectacular lenses. She discusses different ways to earn money with your Squidoo lenses and how to get more traffic to your lenses. She shares her lens promotion ideas. She explains what it takes to make your lenses stand out from the crowd and ways to find great ideas for making more lenses. She shares her best lensmaking resources and ways to encourage reader interaction. She also goes into detail about the importance of leaving and receiving good guestbook comments and why you should help promote your fellow lensmaster’s lenses.
The lens reads like an interview and contains huge amounts of really good lens building advice in addition to a most inspiring story. You see, although you’d never know it from reading her work, Eelkat happens to have a slight disadvantage when it comes to making her lenses. At EelKat’s Secrets to Squidoo Success she reveals her lens building obstacle and the way she overcomes it.
Whether you suffer the same problem, or have a difficulty of your own, I know you will find her story totally inspiring and come away with the knowledge that if she can do it (and do it so well) so can you!
My best tip for Squidoo lensmaking success is to visit this awesome lens and to encourage every lensmaster you know to do the same. Squidoo.com’s reputation grows with each quality lens that is built. The more Giant lensmasters we encourage, mentor, and nominate, the better for Squidoo as a whole.
In other words, I think the real secret to Squidoo success is the way the lensmasters work so hard to help each other build really good quality lenses. As Giants we need to lead the way and lend a hand because when any Squidoo lens comes up as an authority page in the search engines, we all win!
Please Note: It’s not to late to nominate a potential Giant Squid lensmaster. If you know of anyone deserving please send us a note about them to Giants (at) Squidoo.com. If that deserving lensmaster happens to be you, send us a link to your bio page at Wannbeagiant (at) Squidoo.com.

Yay KAB!
