April 2012 Squidoo Payout

Squidoo payout this month was somewhat unusual since it happened on a Saturday. Despite the HQ post claiming payments would be late, they actually sent out the PayPal money to lensmasters one day early. A pleasant surprise for sure, and now I'm $967 richer as well.

Here are the Squidoo payment tiers for April 2012. Text link revenue was up, while ad pool payouts were down this month:

Ad pool:

Tier 1: $35.59
Tier 2: $6.05
Tier 3: $0.30

In-Text Ads:

Tier 1: $9.59
Tier 2: $1.63
Tier 3: $0.08

I made at least $200 from Amazon sales, which isn't half bad for me. Most of this money comes from just 3 focused niche lenses which get steady traffic and make sales every few days. If I had more lenses like these, I would have a nice income source. Sadly, many lenses I built with this in mind rank very poorly in search engines.
