Blogger.com vs Squidoo lens

8 replies
Hey fellow warriors!

While doing keyword research for my dating niche affiliate website, i found quite a few VERY juicy keywords that are a bit problematic. They are based on a spelling error by the searcher. So obviously i don't want to submit articles to EZA with spelling errors in the headline and body, so i thought of alternate ways to exploit them (a coupe thousand searches per month with less than 1000 targetted competition in Google).

So i came up with two options: Squidoo lens vs Blogger.com

With blogger.com i would create one blog per keyword and just put a few articles with the keyword on there, then submit it to social bookmarking (sucks that digg won't do the job anymore) to get it skyrocket on page 1 of Google.

How would i do it with Squidoo? One lens per keyword?

How do the two compare trafficwise? Which one gives the better backlinks (i know, for backlinks sake i should do both)? Which ones will rank better?

    Blogger.Com is good for traffic but squidoo is better for backlinks, in my opinion.

    Instead of going for one blog per keyword, I would create a blog with a more competitive keyword and put all the articles in one place, if the keywords belong to the same niche. If you add more and more content to your blog, it will rank better. And moreover, you can create a community around the blog.

    I'm with Yves here.. I LOVE blogger as an external platform..

    But there's no reason to ignore squidoo here. Using them both in equal proportion is a good thing and can really boost the power of your main sites and traffic

    I vote for both

    Peace

    Just as an aside, you could include your mis-spelled keywords in your keyword list for your article.
