trekkiemelissa I have been bowling for as long as I could remember. I did take a few years off from bowling as I have always been involved in leagues since a young age. Having said that, I don't feel I am the best bowler, but always try to improve my game. Bowling is...

trekkiemelissa It ranges from breed to breed on how long a dog lives. I had a German Shepherd Mix that made it to 15. Last month I lost my Border Collie Mix and he was only 12.

Hub pages Vs Squidoo-which is better to make money?

vijayanths @vijayanths (7877) • India 16 Jan 10

I have tried both hub pages and squidoo sites. You can create hubs at hub pages and create lens at squidoo and make money. Both these sites are revenue sharing sites. Bloggers are working hard on these sites to make...

trekkiemelissa They both are good. I've made more money over at squidoo, that I have over at hubpages. Both take patience. I have over 100 lenses and hubs. You can actually write both sites but write similar topic. One site may be better for certain topic but another one may...

trekkiemelissa I've been bowling since I was a little kid. The smallest ball you can use is 6 which is what I used when I was little. As I got older and stronger, I did go up in weight. I think my current ball is around 11 or 12 lbs. I was supposed to get a new ball last...

What is your bowling style?

ehlana88 @ehlana88 (330) • United States 15 Feb 09

I was talking to my boyfriend tonight about bowling. Everyone has their own approach to the lane and a method to release the ball. Some people do what he calls the Flintstone bowling. That's sorta where you run or tiptoe...

trekkiemelissa I believe that I use the 4 step approach to the foul line and throw it. I usually aim for the third arrow. I don't throw a straight ball either. When in my hand it is not at angled at 12 o'clock, but 11 o'clock. I also give my ball a little twist before I...

trekkiemelissa 2 weeks ago, I hit a 196. That is 4 pins away from a perfect 200 game. I messed up in the tenth frame so I was 4 pins shy of 200. Little by little, I am getting closer to hitting a 200 game. I have an average of 120. This week, I am getting a new ball, so...

How does squidoo work?

Hanan_x3 @Hanan_x3 (294) • United States 14 Nov 09

Whats the rating process? Earning? What do you have to do? Whats the min cashout? Do they pay by paypal? Please give me more info!

trekkiemelissa I've been on squidoo over a year now. I am a giant squid (100 club) and a Citizen squid (Mentor). Rating is easy. If a lens is good, it should be rated 5 stars. The site strives on quality lenses. Earnings are about two months behind. If your lenses rank well...

trekkiemelissa It really depends. The most you can make if your squidoo lens is quality is about $10. You can also make money from products you sell on your lens so that can vary. It takes work and effort. The more lenses you have the better it can be to make money on the...

Squidoo blocked another lens of mine - and this one was nothing but

Sergeantrom @sergeantrom (5721) • United States 8 Nov 09

trekkiemelissa You probably hit their filter this time. Sometimes it is to picky. They probably set it to key words like PTC which we know is do not topic. If you see lenses that you think should not be there, report them. It helps clean up the site even more when you do...

saizo6 @saizo6 (2199) • United States 21 Oct 09

trekkiemelissa I think I have bowling since I could walk I think. I hardly know a time that I did not bowl. When I was old enough, I did join the children's league when I was a kid. I think it has been about 5 years since I had bowled in a league and this year, I went...

trekkiemelissa When was it first locked? I need to ask that. Lenses have been getting locked on false positives this week. I can't really tell without look if your lens is on the do not list. If you are fully sure that your lens is not on the do not list, try to ask them...

trekkiemelissa I've been with Squidoo for over a year and make decent money on the site. You are not going to make a whole lot with the site though. It takes time and patience. I have over 100 lenses and that still is growing as I come up with new ideas to write lenses...

trekkiemelissa Yeah, I know Squidoo can be annoying at times when it comes to money. Still, the way I look at it is that its extra money. Last month, I made $40 from them and they still are the bulk of my income online. I do write on other sites too which is also a great...
