Squidoo Is Not Dead Yet
Last year Squidoo was all the rage and then suddenly one morning Google took away their love for Squidoo and rankings everywhere dropped.
When the traffic dropped no one seemed to notice that the people that were doing well on Squidoo before where still doing well later.
All that was needed was a bit of backlinks to your pages to keep them ranking well.
In case you haven't seen it before, Squidoo is another site like hubpages where you can build a page and the community gets to vote for it.
There are a lot of options and page pieces to add but first of all we can look at what is important for you to do.
First go to the site Squidoo website.
Sign up for free and you can then start to build your lenses.
A lense is just a page but as you start you should add one text module.
Each text module can hold 2500 characters which is around 600 words.
Write and add that content and then go to the "add modules" and add (or make sure that you have) a text block, Google Blog Search, Link List, and GuestBook.
There are new rules going in soon that will force you to have four modules.
In your links list list your website home page and make sure to leave your guestbook at the very bottom of the page.
Now publish your lense and note the web address of the lense.
After you have created your page make sure that you go to the different groups on Squidoo and add your lense to as many related groups as you can.
Also comment or add yourself to the guestbook, with your link, to any high ranking lenses like your own.
Now that squidoo is done.
Go to pingoat.
com and "ping" with the name of your lense and the web address, leave the xml blank.
Also make sure that you add your lense to Stumbleupon, Digg (if the page is like news in some way), delicious and any other bookmarking sites that you belong to.
Squidoo is very popular to Google and using your content you can create many lenses that will all drive traffic back your site thanks to your links list.
All you need to do now is to build more lenses focused on good keywords for your market.
