Create A Website, Follow-up with a Squidoo Lens
Written by enetwal on April 8, 2009 – 4:53 pm -I am trying to practice what I preach. And so now that I have my Aroma Therapy Scents blog site up, I am writing an article a day pointing to a different page each day and using the keywords featured on that page. That is actually not to time consuming. I know the topic, I already have material to work with and a clear sense of the keywords I want to use. The article directories have been eating them up, with several already apporved.
The next step was to create a Squidoo Lens. Frankly, I largely cut and pasted articles from the web site into Squidoo, and then hyper linked the key words in each article back to the pages. I added a lot of Amazon and eBay modules to the Lens, which should generate at least some sales. Time will tell. At the bottom of each text module I added a link to my sales page and to the home page, encouraging people to buy my Aroma Therapy Scents eBook and or sign up for my 10 day ecourse.
My main goal is to get backlinks to the web site. But Squidoo should also send some traffic my way and generate a few sales here and there.
Now I should probably go back and rework some of the text as they may be duplicate content as I just cut and pasted the articles. That will take a bit more time, but otherwise I have less than an hour into the Squidoo Lens, which is a real time bargain. see: Aromatherapy Scents Squidoo Lens http://www.squidoo.com/AromatherapyScents
I recommend that everyone with a web site, set up a Squidoo page. It may generate some revenues, but more importantly it provides backlinks and traffic.
Over the years I have used a number of different paid keyword tools. The most effective and best value I've found is Market Samurai. I highly recommend it.

Your right, a Squidoo lens or other mini-site like a blogger blog isn’t just for directing more immediate traffic to your site, it also helps to build your main site up as an authority site.
The more high quality sites that link to your main site, the better your main site will rank = more traffic.

I have heard a lot about Squidoo. Some time back I put up a Squidoo page. But I have not followed through with using Squidoo. Maybe I should look at it again. Thanks for the advice.

Earl,
Some great information here on how to get links back to your sites with good articles submitted to directories.
These will also create traffic for you along with the squidoo lens.
Good job!
Ron
