New: SquidBids - Squidoo for eBay Sellers
October 7th, 2007 • Related • Filed Under
Following the successful SquidWho launch, Squidoo HQ has made another re-branding of the lens-building platform and just released SquidBids.com.
If you’re an eBay seller, go and make a SquidBids lens. The steps to create the lens also help you pre-fill the modules, making a lens filled with content ready for you to customise. The key being, customise it!
The lenses have a cool layout too. Here is one I made to test it out as a bonus for a BuildMyLens customer (although she doesn’t know it yet) - http://www.squidoo.com/gurlygirlfeedback
There is a really good post about SquidBids at Mashable, and you can read it here.

Hi Lewis,
This is a great feature, so I have tried to create a new lens to take advantage. My account is with ebay.co.uk and it doesn’t seem to work correctly. Do you know of a work around?
Thanks,
Martyn

Squidoo comes through again, what a great idea!
If you are an eBay Seller, you must create Squidbids lenses!
It’s free and will drive traffic to your eBay Store or listings, what’s better than that? And besides, it’s fun!
I have made one for each of our product lines

Is there a way to make a referral link for getting people to join SquidBids?
