Using Squidoo To Generate Traffic
Welcome back everyone. Today we are going to discuss Squidoo and how we can generate traffic from it. Squidoo is basically a small website for you to use that’s usually used to educate people and we are going to use it to get people to our blogs. Let’s go.
Squidoo Visitors to Your Site
So as I said before, Squidoo is basically a site that allows you to build your own one page websites one whatever topic you choose. These one page sites are targeted on one specific topic and are very easy to make. There’s a good lens that talks about all of this in a crash course on Squidoo that is very helpful for all the basics of Squidoo.
Generating traffic from your lens to your site is actually pretty easy to do. As long as you offer quality content on your lens odds are that people will click to your site which is exactly what you want them to do. When I create a lens I want minimal distractions for my visitors. So I place just content on my lens with links back to my site. That is another thing you will gain from Squidoo, quality backlinks from a high ranking website.
A good way to get people to your site is to offer something for free. Say a free ebook download on your topic. You offer this on your lens and place a link to the signup form on your site. They sign up, you get people on your email list, and you get traffic. It’s a win-win.
Creating a lens is really easy so there’s really no excuse not to be leveraging this for your own site. So sign up to Squidoo, create a lens on the topic of your niche, place links back to your site, and if you have an email list to build send them to where they can sign up. Making a decent lens could take about 30 minutes or so depending on how long it takes you to write up the content for your lens. Also one last bit, I advise that you bookmark your lens in at least Digg so that your lens gets a little bit extra boost. Well, that’s it so good luck on building your lens!
