Default squidoo optimization

hi,

indiaboy here! two months back i contracted with some guy who had
created 5 wonderfull squidoo lenses - mainly promoting certain
clickbank category affiliate products.

last month i contracted with this girl back in India who promised me
that she will gain me high traffic for my first lense which mainly
talks about fitness.

what can i say? her performance is not impressing me and the rankings
haven't reached Top 10.

could someone please guide me how to go about this and i would be
even happy to share my lenses with someone who is really keen.

so...ahhh....you could IM me

Sj

Are you sure you did it right? You have to make sure you didn't end up entering http://http://whateverurl.com

Try the tool on "www.squidoo.com/vincerunza"

Hmm, I have been creating quite a few lens on Squidoo lately. I try to make sure that the url part of my lens is the keyword phrase I am trying to reach. I also try to keep that in the main title of my lens. Adding content with the keyword phrase(s) will definitely help your rankings too! My lens are doing pretty well traffic wise without much effort on my part.

Yeah, I saw some of those error lines at the top of the utility page. They DO say it's a BETA version.

However, notice the announcement in the upper left hand corner of this screenshot: New Server. It seems to be working fine, now.

Squidoo is a great way of dominating the search engines. My squidoo lenses are ranking high after only a few days of creating them.

The renegade university has some great video tutorials on how to optimize your lenses and get on the first page of google for squidoo, hubpages, blogs etc. Look at my blog in my sig line for more info.

Vince - That's a nice tool.

On another note - Squidoo Lenses are a great way to get traffic to your site (just gotta be done right)

Nothing I can do about that, I'm afraid - that's controlled by Squidoo's server.

Save yourself some money, and don't buy the "$5 Traffic Secret" (unless you use HubPages).
