Comments on: Want to Build Good Lenses – Look Around Squidoo http://www.stazjia.com/stazjiaspotpourri/2010/01/want-to-build-good-lenses-look-around-squidoo/ Tue, 09 Aug 2011 07:24:39 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9 hourly 1 By: Kathy McGraw http://www.stazjia.com/stazjiaspotpourri/2010/01/want-to-build-good-lenses-look-around-squidoo/comment-page-1/#comment-956 Kathy McGraw Sun, 31 Jan 2010 16:03:57 +0000 http://www.stazjia.com/stazjiaspotpourri/?p=398#comment-956 I love to write and have a lot of text in most of my lenses, however I also know that most people skim, so something needs to break up the wall of words. I choose to use selective bold so even if you are skimming you know what the module is about. Like AJ I spent time looking at other lenses, and my very first lens I made stayed my top lens until shortly after I made Giant, then a different one took that spot. The first lens took me a long time to make as I had so much to learn. Now with 102 published it is still in the #3 spot. All due to reading others and seeing what a lens was about before ever hitting that publish button.

When I first discovered Squidoo I spent at least a week looking around the site before I joined and it was at least another week before I published my first lens as I tried to learn from others.
