The SEO Importance of Squidoo Guestbooks
Hi Warriors!
Just a quick fyi - ALWAYS add a Guestbook to your lens. Not only is it good for socialization, but today I had a customer contact me and specifically spelled out how they had found me. They Googled a keyword phrase.
The domain came up and a portion of the blurb Google used to describe my site was pulled from my guestbook. It's THE reason the customer clicked through MY link over the competition.
The content your users can add IS being seen and used by search engines, so make sure your content is top quality (so your comments aren't negative) and so that people will "gush" about you - and possibly have that "gushing" shown to Google searchers.
Just a tip!
