This is some additional info that I wanted to post about the usefulness of Squidoo lenes. When it comes to creating those coveted one-way backlinks to your blog, what better way than to create a lens specific to your blog. Then create some backlinks to it.
There is no need to create a link back to the lens from your blog. Think about it. The more one-way backlinks you can beg, borrow or steal to your blog is of major importance when it comes to begging Google for a decent page rank. Once you have that page rank, your blog becomes that much more valuable to you as a way to make money, primarily from advertising… not to mention the potential increase in traffic from the search engines themselves.
So if you haven’t done it already, go create a lens to compliment your blog. Here’s what you need to do:
- Create a lens with the same title as your blog.
- If you can, make the squidoo link the same as your blog title as well (if the name hasn’t already been taken!
- Do a really good write-up all about your blog with the link embedded in the text of that article
- Use anchor text with the title of your blog for maximum weight
- Add a module to receive an RSS feed from your blog
All these things will help in generating more traffic as well as creating several valuable anchor text-weighted one-way backlinks to your blog.
