Okay, so the Monkeybrain challenge begins tomorrow so after midnight tonight, create your lens! (1 per person please).

Might be a topic I am testing the niche for…

Are Your Ready to Ruuuummbbbllleeeee, Monkeybrain?

Every once in awhile I host a Squidoo Challenge – for fun, for prizes (eBooks), and for a custom-built lens made by Lewis Smile and I.

They have a new section of the site I haven’t tried out yet, so I thought it’d be a fun way to host the next challenge. It’s called MonkeyBrain. The headquarters is located here: http://www.squidoo.com/monkeybrain/hq

All of the MonkeyBrain lenses are debate lenses – so you can use this to your marketing advantage. Let’s say you’re in the dog training niche. You could do a debate lens about crate training – good or bad?

Smoking cessation niche - public smoking bans (good or bad)
Green niche – recyclable grocery bag bans (pro or con)

Etc etc etc.

Here’s how the contest works:

You won’t be able to create the lens until March 16th. The contest will run until the last day of the month (March 31st). Lowest overall LensRank number wins (it’s the only common element we can gauge a winner by). Just giving you about a week to think of an idea, but don’t register your URL yet.

This is a great way to learn Squidoo because the contestants usually share tips, strategies, and help each other out by visiting each other’s lenses, etc.

There’s nothing to sign up for – you’ll just need to email me your lens URL or post it in the comments section here once you create it and it HAS to be created ON or AFTER March 16th. No earlybirds just to keep it fair.

Then each day I’ll post the update of LensRank everyone has on my blog so we can see who’s in the lead. But only the last day matters!

Are you brave enough to compete?

$5 PLR Content for Your Web 2.0 Strategy The PLR Mini Mart

And the Ever Challenge Winner Is…

Hi Lensmasters -

We have a winner! Congratulations are in order for Mr. Paul Duxbury – challenger extraordinaire and soon to be proud owner of a custom-built lens created for him in any niche of his choice by Tiffany and Lewis of BuildMyLens.com.

Traffic is going to help your lens a lot. I discovered this when I saw such huge jumps in LensRank when I blasted my list. So although I have a list (which – by the way, why don’t you?) you can get a similar effect using Ezine Articles.

Just write an article and place your Squidoo lens link in there – I’m doing that for my Top Toddler Toys lens and it gets decent traffic from those articles. Plus, EZA has a good Google PageRank, which helps your lens because you have a good backlink pointing to your lens.

Well I enjoyed it – I know it’s a slacker month for most of us because we’re busy getting ready for the holidays. Maybe we’ll do another in January when we’re all dedicated and have forged rock solid resolutions that we’ll work hard.

Here are the final rankings – thanks for participating everyone! Paul – email me and we’ll get your lens going!

Squidoo’s Ever Challenge Update:

Hi Lensmasters!

It takes so little to get your lens rising in rank. All I did was create a good article about how to use Private Label Rights offline and then I blasted my list and told them where to read it. Today, my lens rose from 1,523 to the 400s.

I also noticed today that one of the lenses Lewis and I created not too long ago for a customer already has a Google PageRank of 5!! It’s located here: www.Squidoo.com/MrBento and is about Bento lunchboxes. A Squidoo lens can do very well in Google.

Okay, gear up for the final push! When I was doing the update, I found a LOT of lenses with the same LensRank as before, leading me to believe they may not have updated in full. But here’s the latest and when I do the final one, I’ll wait until afternoon to check LensRank:

Paul: http://best.christmas-present-ideas.ever.com 188

Only a Couple of Days Left in the Ever Challenge!

Hi Lensmasters!

Thought I’d check in and see how the lenses are coming along for the challenge! I am dealing with sick kids AGAIN, so we’re headed to the doctor’s this morning. I swear I feel like I’m one of those cruise ships that needs to be professionally wiped down to get rid of germs – they bring home so many bugs from school! Ick.

Anyway, here are the current rankings for the Ever Contest – only a couple of days left! This is the best time to get in gear and promote your lenses because near the end, some people forget and falter and you can quickly rise in the ranks and scoop the #1 position and win a custom-built lens from Lewis and Tiffany at BuildMyLens.com!

Rules Is Rules :)

Sorry guys! Anyone not created on November 10th or after isn’t in the contest. You can follow along on your own, though
Fluff, I have to take you off - and there were a couple of others who I’ve already talked to.
Join next time!

Squidoo’s Ever Challenge Update!

Hi Challengers!

Well you get 3 kids over being sick and then what happens? You get it yourself! It’s a lovely bug this time around – but I won’t impress you with the details. I’ve just been feeling very yucky, so haven’t done much in the contest, but then the point isn’t for me to win – it’s so one of you can win a custom-built lens from BuildMyLens.com, right?

Woot! I’m seeing a couple of top 100s here! Great job, guys! Okay, tonight I’m going to set about spiffing up my lens so it doesn’t pale in comparison to yours. Here is the latest LensRank as of Sunday night:
