This is for the Squidoo lensmasters:
It's a simple matter of cut-and-paste to add "sell this card" images and links to a Squidoo lens. After some experimentation this morning, I found out a couple of things:
1) You can put the linked images in a row of four or at most five across (to fit the width of the lens, which is fixed). Just paste your codes one after the other without making a break. To put a non-breaking space between each image, put the following - - at the end of each individual batch of code.
2) Squidoo allows a maximum of NINE outbound links to the same domain. Choose your card links thoughtfully to tie in with the subject of your lens.
As an example of what you can do with the "Sell This Card" feature, look at this lens:
http://www.squidoo.com/giftscancerchemo Now a piece of advice for budding lensmasters - in my experience, lenses that contain little to no content don't do very well. If you want to market your greeting cards, I suggest you create an informative lens on a subject that ties in with the cards you want to promote. You're much more likely to generate traffic as Google and other search engines love fresh original content.
Good luck!
