How Animal Print Bedding On Squidoo Makes Money
By Richard
If you’ve been looking for a super fast way to launch an affiliate marketing business here’s the case study for you.
First of all, if you haven’t heard of Squidoo it’s a publishing platform, where you can create your own pages on all kinds of niches, eg animal print bedding!
You get a lot of control over your page and can even put in your own affiliate links. So in this sense it is kind of like a quick and dirty website of your own.
Also, Squidoo does a lot of the work for you in terms of attracting visitors since it is a high page rank site and has a lot of visitors searching in it’s own internal search engine too.
This page on Animal Print Bedding on Squidoo – or lens if you use their terminology – for example ranks in the top 10 Google search results for big search terms like “leopard print bedding” (13,000 or so monthly searches worldwide).
And apart from a single photo and a H1 or H2 title for each product, this page basically has no content. Rock on!
So when you go to this page you’ll see the person has basically created asuper long page featuring all kinds of animal print bedding (blankets, sheets, pillows etc), from giraffe to zebra, it’s all here.
To be honest there is not much original content on this page. It’s just a compilation of products, with photos. When you click on a product you like the look of it takes you straight to the actual sellers website, eg Target or Bed Bath & Beyond or even Amazon. Each link is an affiliate link. I mean every single link!
And the author gets to keep 100% of any affiliate commissions they earn – no splitting with Squidoo!
One thing to watch out for if you go down this route is to not overdo the affiliate links relative to the amount of content you have on the site. That said, this page literally has 74 affiliate links!!
