Don’t get fooled

There are people who might sell you software that ‘automates’ the generation of lenses. This is a violation of the Squidoo TOS, and we’re right now working on code that will make the software ineffective. If you build lenses this way, it will lead to them being deleted, and perhaps, your account being closed.

If we partner with someone to create a lens builder helper that’s approved, we’ll tell you on this blog and on our site. Otherwise, save your money and your lenses and avoid software like this. We want to make it easy to build great lenses, but we don’t want the site filled with junk.

UUU… useful, unique and updated. That’s the goal.

Thanks!

Quick! What's Squidoo?

Squidoo is the popular publishing platform and community that makes it easy for you to create "lenses" online. Lenses are pages, kind of like flyers or signposts or overview articles, that gather everything you know about your topic of interest – and snap it all into focus. It's a supersimple, fun and powerful way to share your interests, build your online identity and credibility, and connect with new readers and friends. It's all free, and you could even earn a royalty for charity or yourself!
