Well, we’ve all heard about social networking. Or at least you should have by now. :) While some are more or less just voting sites like stumble, There are a number of other types of Social networking sites that should get some attention.

One site that I recently started using is Squidoo. This is an interesting concept. First you create a lens on any topic you want, add some quality content. Then Start monitizing.

This site gives you tons of modules to help you sell products from eBay, Amazon and a host of other sites. Content is easy to add and you can make some interesting pages (of course with a link back to your own site)

A few of my lenses (pages) include a lens on a Classic Car Shows , my favorite vacation spot in Kauai , and I’ve even got a lens on my home town and the recreation of Northern California. Best of all it takes very little time, they’re almost fun to make, and I get paid by my clients to make them, so that they send traffic to their sites.

Of course the next step after creating your lens is getting traffic to it. Squidoo even helps you with that. As all good social sites do, Squidoo does a very good job of promoting your lens. With a little help from you to get it started, Squidoo starts showing your lens to other lensmasters. You can add yourself to groups, and visit a few other sites and leave comments.

I’ve noticed that a high percentage of people going to your lens, ends up moving on to your sites. So give it a try
