How and When Do I Get Paid by Squidoo?

Squidoo pays out every month by PayPal. Usually you get paid around the 10th of the month but I have had payments as early as the 6th or as late as the 15th. Payments are 2 months in arrears, so in March you get paid for January, in April for February and so on.

The money you get from Squidoo is for your share of their advertising royalties, Google Adsense etc. You get paid a share for every lens that you own on a scale dependant on your lenses rank. It works out for a high-ranking lens you will get around $8-$12 for the month down to about $0.06 for a lower ranking one and even nothing at all for a very low one. This can seem like not-a-lot but it soon mounts up if you have a lot of lenses.

PLUS you get half of the royalties for anything sold from the modules on your lenses such as Amazon, ebay, Cafe Press and others. These are the amounts that show up on your dashboard in Squidoo in the $$$s column.
