Promoting Squidoo lenses

by jellybrain

Hi.

I have recently signed up with squidoo and have posted my first lense, all I want to know is if I need to promote the lense in anyway for egsample sending it to search engines or free directories to get page rank and hits. Or does squidoo do most of the promoting for me.

Thank You

    Hi, you should promote it or it will have limited exposure typically. If you have other websites or blogs, start with linking to it from some of those. Also, if you change and add things to the lens, squidoo likes that and it helps your ranking.

    NEVER, EVER wait for anyone to promote for you.

    Take action yourself. Social bookmark it, tweet about it, create some backlinks with blog comments, and forum comments. That would be the minimum you should do, if you are really wanting it to get ranked highly by Google.

    Also, try to find other related Squidoo lenses which allow comments, make comments and link back to your lens.

    That should get you started.

    Go to mTurk and create a hit where you have people go to your site and give it an honest ranking. Most people know that means to give you 5 stars. I did that and I got 30 5 star rankings real quick and for only $3.30. Do that a little bit at a time over several months, you can have a top 100 ranked Squidoo site.

      Don't people have to be signed into their account to give ratings?

        Yes, tell them in the HIT that they have to have an account to give a review.

    You can go to SquidU.com's discussion forum and be active there.

    You should also ping and submit to as many RSS directories.

    Don't forget to promote your link in tweeter and facebook.

    Quality blog commenting with relevant blogs will be useful for you too.
