Squidoo - Including Your Biography

Many individuals dislike penning about themselves, modesty intervenes I suppose.
They probably believe that they really should not be boasting about themselves as such.
Writing way too many complimentary things may very well be though of, as unwarranted.
However the biography may be the one area where you've got a chance to credit yourself accordingly.
But anyhow, Squidoo doesn't allow much space for this, so the vain are taken into account also (lol).
So you need to select your words carefully.
Regardless of what your purpose for having a lens, you really do need to type a few words next to your picture albeit brief.
If you work with a lens to chat about your hobby, then just mention this as part of your biography.
In case your lens pertains to an aspect of fishing for example, then mention in your biography that you just enjoy fishing, and that you happen to have been a keen fisherman since you were knee high to a tadpole.
Or something like that.
On the other hand, in case your lens is a business tool, then your biography would need to show the reader that you've skills and knowledge, about the topic you are penning.
This really is important if you are hoping to sell a product or service.
Many people wouldn't normally be that interested in reading about you, when they are just glancing at your article from an interest perspective.
If you're trying to sell them something though, they would then perhaps try to get a more detailed summary of your person.
They would want to get a feel for whether they can trust you with their hard saved cash.
While trying to come to a decision on the words to insert in your bio box, take a close look at the content of your respective lens to guide you.
If you're trying to market something, then see what extract of these skills can be inserted into your bio, in order that you can put the readers mind at ease, and demonstrate that you know what you are talking about.
So guys, If you are writing about horse care, and are promoting a specific type of new feed, you might like to mention that you've had horses your entire life.
For those who have worked at a vet clinic or volunteered for wild life sanctuary duties, then mention this as well.
You may choose to promote your degree that deals with nutrition for animals or whatever.
This will provide you with much needed credibility in the eyes of your readers.
Put simply, be sure to promote yourself honestly as having some expertise within the area that you're promoting a product or service for.
If you need to write an extensive bio, there's a chance you'll be disappointed with the small amount of space that Squidoo gives you for this exercise.
You may, however, use the introduction section for additional information.
If that's still not quite enough, then put in a "text/write module" below that for extra space for yourself.
Remember, your biography is important folks.
It enables you to describe what you do, and what makes you an expert regarding this particular topic that you're putting forward to the public.
This space, is what enables you to build credibility.
Any extra information that you're willing and able to provide, the higher quality your Squidoo lens will turn out.
Last but not least, work at keeping your bio basic, and always be very honest in all your writings.
It never pays to cloak the truth.
Good luck guys!
