How To Approach Search Engine Rankings with Your Squidoo Lens
Wednesday, February 29th, 2012We suggest you ignore anyone who says it is not possible to develop a Squidoo lens, and then proceed to get it onto page one of Google. You cannot rank highly for all terms with a Squidoo lens, but you can certainly rank for many other terms and here is some help.
We want to mention a particular practice that some people may not have knowledge about. We know that you will not always be able to use your exact keyword phrase if somebody else has claimed it, for the Squidoo URL, so in that case try to work around it and get your phrase in it. You may have to dig a bit more to find what you need, and you can get a little creative with it and find a way to include your main phrase. We do not recommend using hyphens or underscores as they may have a negative effect on the reader; but you never know. You can make a lens for each keyword phrase as long as it can be reasonably and easily done. A Squidoo lens is just like anything else you promote, and that will need to be done so you can get the type of traffic you want. You would be leaving a lot of traffic on the table if you failed to include social media marketing in your plan. There are a lot of ways to integrate social media, and if you have everything in place you can attract excellent traffic numbers. This just goes to show that social media really matters in the eyes of the search engines and associating yourself with it will help you get your lens ranked higher than the others. You do want to bring your lens into the latest with online marketing, and the whole social “thing” really is just in the early stages.
Hopefully it is very clear that Marketing Service is one thing that can have quite an effect on you and others, too. There are so many scenarios and variations – twists and turns, that hopefully you see how difficult it can be to include all bases. But I wanted to pause for a moment so you can reflect on the value of what you have just read. We are highly confident about the ability of what we offer, today, to make a difference. Our final few items can really prove to be powerful considering the overall. Now this may not seem like it’s directly related to getting your site ranked high on Squidoo – it actually is. If you notice you’ll see that controversial topics tend to make it to the top of Squidoo, topics that are off the wall but a little controversial in nature. You don’t have to write about something that’s rude or wrong, but connect the points and see what would get the people going. You can follow the trends on Twitter and other social media sites to find out the latest brewing controversy so that it becomes easier for you to choose your subject. This is definitely worth looking into because you could stumble onto something that really takes off and even generates a viral nature about it.
Yes, work needs to be put into this effort just like anything else, but ranking a Squidoo lens for the right keywords is still done all the time.
