What do you think about squidoo?

1) How much traffic you get from squidoo?

2)What are the ways to get traffic from squidoo?

 

for me I put it below article sites and above directories in terms of usefulness. worth a shot definitely if you put some effort into your page and get it a few links.

 

Squidoo has turned into more of a way for people to try to make money than a social networking site. Affiliate marketing is the rage there.

 

Use squidoo lens...the most powerful source on net to get your page ranked high in google

 

Not much direct traffic. Used to help a lot for serp ranking, not anymore.

 

different lenses will help

 

so you think all things being equal a squidoo lens will outrank an ezine or goarticles page?

 

Squidoo isnt as good as some other services out there. They have really become ineffective.

 

I use squidoo for quality backlinks to my sites and also i use these to dominate the competitive keywords from these squidoo pages.

We can easily dominate competitive keywords by building pages with the these keywords and linkback to our site. so with this we can get targeted traffic to our site and also we will dominate the tough keywords, but we need to build some backlinks to these squidoo pages.

 

lens is more important just go for it

 

I am not getting traffic from my squidoo lens. I don't know why??

 

I have many PR4 lenses that rank first or close to first.
Squidoo is loved by google.

You need to create lenses on popular topics, the more popular
the better. I get a ton of traffic from squidoo.

But I have been doing squidoo for a long time. The links in my
sig are squidoo lenses.

I have even had a Lens of the Day, so that alone should tell you
that I know a little something about squidoo.

They are fantastic for backlinks and putting your articles on.
Plus they pay you.

It takes a while to learn, but I would just copy the format of some
popular lenses.

Let me give you a quick example. Way back in 2008, John McCain
picked Sarah Palin for VP. I quickly snatched up a lens on Sarah
Palin. Now it does not matter what you think of palin. What matters
is that the topic is hot. Right now, my lens is #1 for: sarah palin trivia.

Take that a step further, I noticed Lauren Conrad was getting a lot
of searches. I had no idea who Lauren was. Noticed her hair was
a hot topic. So, I made a lens on Lauren Conrad Hair. That lens rocks!
I don't even have more than 2 to 3 backlinks even. Again, don't
laugh. That lens is on the first or second page.

One more example. Before winter, I snatched up an electric socks lens.
That lens makes me more money than any other. Can't get any love
from google yet, but this is #2 on yahoo for heated electric socks.

Now the kicker is that all lenses are linked together, complete with links
to my domains, and around she goes.

I don't mess around with other stuff anymore. Squidoo is what I use to
really get things going. But again, I have been doing this a long, long
time. The longer you use it, the higher your lenses get, the easier it
get to get them ranked.

I like Squidoo as I find that its really easy to create a lens. I use it as an amazon associate, and find that my lenses rank high and get indexed quickly. It's quick and easy to use as part of a link wheel.

I have an amazon associate ID, but if amazon ever refuse you for whatever reason, you can still sell amazon products via squidoo. They have a special deal with amazon. The comission rate is not that different from regular amazon associate rates as squidoo have a special deal with amazon.

IMO, Squidoo has become kind of weak at best. The value of the site has dropped and so too have the profits $.

 

i does not use squidoo

 

I like the overall feel of site. The keyword option of the URL is great. Its very nice from the Marketing point of view.

 

Squidoo is the best way to create bypass traffic to your product site as i am getting more and more traffic from my squidoo page to my site.

 

Hi there
Squidoo is the best social site, here you can promote your articles, blogs and your site but before, for get success you must become old in this site by share something social news.

 

I'm getting good traffic form Squidoo, the way is youneed to post daily with link back your website where you want to transfer traffic from squidoo

 

Squidoo lens can be a very good way to get some quality traffic and link back to your site. You just need to create one lens on the topic you want to. Prepare the lens with some good images and videos with some other attractive things which can attract the user. After completing the lens publish it and share the url on different social bookmarking sites. Share it on your facebook account as well as on your twitter account. Interact with other publishers on squidoo , write some comment about their lenses, send them message to come and read your lenses.

All these activities are good enough to increase the traffic on your site.
