Retired Pay World

I started to just make a couple quick posts about making money with a website, and making money without a website.  In researching I quickly found way, way to much for just one web post each, so I’m going to do a little ‘mini-series or two.  I’m first going to focus on making money without a web site because even though I think having a web site is trivially easy and extremely cheap, even free, I find that the very prospect of having to buy, build, maintain, be responsible for a website if extremely intimidating to many of my target audience … seniors and retirees making money online.

So no problem.  You don’t want a website?  You don’t need a website.  Don’t need one now or in the future.  You can still make money online, with no special skills, no investment and no effort at all (oh, I lied about the "no effort", that’s called an attention step, just seeing if you were paying attention).

Everything I am going to show you requires some work and some effort and some persistence in making a plan and sticking to it … anyone who offers you some method without work is a damn liar, ignore him.

But nothing down, nothing per month and actual profits in your bank account?  Can do, partner, can do, if you are willing to expend a little effort.  Today’s lesson?

Do You Squidoo?

Whatever is a Squid Lens, why would I ever want one and you really can’t make money with that web 2.0 nonsense, can you?

Well please take a look at this lens, by Janet 21.  It is currently the number one lens (page) on Squidoo and Janet is a real person who will tell you the real story about making money on Squidoo and how much she makes,

Wait, so what’s a lens? A lens is…

• An insanely easy-to-build, single page online.
• Your signpost about something that matters to you.
• A place to recommend your favorite stuff.
• A popular way to get found more on the web.
• A free (yes, free) way to earn a royalty. For you or for charity.
• Word of mouth at your fingertips.
• Squiddylicious.
• Something you should have if you care about getting the word out,
  about selling something, about changing minds, about sharing info,
  or if you just love to create, express yourself, and play.

Top Five Steps to Make a Squidoo Lens:

Step 1: Focus
Step 2: Make it clear
Step 3: Build your lenses
Step 4: Link to the blogosphere
Step 5: Repeat

As you saw, Janet is making an income that won’t give Donald Trump any nightmares, but she is doing it consistently, reliably, honestly and she did not have to buy into any program, badger her friends to change their brand of soap, trudge through he neighborhood and hand catalogs on doors or any of the other ‘easy as pie’ ways that are touted for making money.

There are others on Squidoo making as much or more as Janet.  Some are WAHMs, some are WHADs, (Work At Home Moms and Work At Home Dads), many are retirees and seniors looking to supplement and empower their retirement.  You can too, no investment, no server, honest potential to earn.
