Any Experienced Squidoo Marketers Please Help

4 replies
Hi Guys,

Just a little help needed as i`m not sure if i`m doing something wrong with Squidoo,

When i first started IM i built a few squidoo lenses on `blushing` and to this day i get a sale about once a month on just this one lense so the other day i thought i`ll take a break from my adsense marketing and i`ll have a look though clickbank and pick a few products to try my hand on Squidoo with.

So i picked afew CB products did some simple keyword research and picked some keywords thaat i thought with the added ranking power of Squidoo i should be on the page 3 or somewhere close after i add just a few backlinks to them.

So i built afew lenses got them indexed added some profile backlinks and made sure that the backlinks are indexed too !!

But nothing !! the lenses are indexed but i cannot find the lenses in the serps anywhere i have searched in "" also but i just cannot find the lenses in the first 20 pages and the keywords are quite easy to rank for and when i look at the sites on say page 15 i cannot understand why my lenses isn`t in the top 20 pages let alone the fact i have some high quality backlinks pointing with anchor text !

Can anybody offer any advice as i feel i must be missing something can any Squidoo markers have a look at my lenses and see if they can find them in the serps and maaybe check inside my dashboard or something as i think i may of done something wrong.

Here is the URL`s of the lenses.

Jiu Jitsu Techniques, Killer Tips On Beating Any Opponent keyword `jiu jitsu techniques`

Jiu Jitsu Techniques, Killer Tips On Beating Any Opponent keyword `jumping program`

If anybody has any suggestions please let me know as its to get stumped !

Cheers Jim

    What does the competition look like for the pages that are in the top of the serps? Start there and then figure out what you need to do to beat them. Build links to your lense, you may want to play around with the keyword density on the lense too.

      You know right now im not thinking about beating the top sites for the keywords, The competition for the keywords which are `jumping program` and `jiu jitsu techniques`isn`t that strong nor is the search volume high but what i am concerned about is that the lenses are indexed but i cannot find them even in the top 20 pages and was wondering if anybody would have a look to see if they could see the lenses and at what position as i cannot seem to get my firefox rank checker to work with squidoo urls ?? And give their thoughts as to why the lenses aren`t even showing inthe first 20 pages

      Cheers

  • My understanding is that in the last 6-12 months, Squiddo has squashed the effectiveness of actually 'marketing' products through their interface. So right now it will not have the same effectiveness as it did about 1-2 years ago. You may consider looking at alternatives (hubpages.com, but not sure how effective they are at the moment).
