I’ve been hearing lensmasters liking NetLeeks as they can not only promote their lenses, but they can feature Amazon affiliate links there and make sales directly through NetLeeks.

That would be a way to keep products off your nice looking lenses and still earn. I’m planning to use NetLeeks more as it’s fairly fast to set one up.

Ellen, at the encouragement of my Scienctific Hubby who is always analysing figures, I too have recently set up an Excel Spreadsheet, because I share your concerns about being too reliant on Squidoo Tier payments and links via Squidoo lenses.

I know I need to diversify more, but eventhough I publish on other sites it seems to me that none of these sites can remotely compete with Squidoo for traffic and sales.

This means that when I have to choose on which site to publish, like a moth to a flame I tend to go back to Squidoo. But yes, that makes me feel vulnerable and I know I really should put more effort in to develop content on other sites.

Have you ever think about a blog (or a weekly or 2 “special” on your mythology blog ) about Greek mythology for the kids? Activities, coloring, good book features etc. It might help converting Amazon. I know I don’t mind buying something for my son when it is educative: books, role play/imagination toys etc. I think school kids can be a huge market to tap into (if a mom or dad ends up on your blog it is mostly because their kids have an interest for mythology… and might turn buyer).
