How effective is Squidoo?

Most certainly.

If you have one lens per topic (or even several lenses to cover the one topic) is the way to go. Don't go off topic. You'll only confuse the reader.

 

i have not had much luck with squidoo. You can build a lens in 10 mins. I perfer wordpress blogs

 

If you do have multiple lenses about a single topic, linking them together will really help with their ranking in search engines.

 

how do i link the lenses together? i dont see any option to put a link in suidoo

 

I only create a lense, but I dont' how to use it

 

There are many ways to do this, with varying degrees of ease:

• Use the 'Lensroll' feature in the side bar of the lens
• Add your other lenses to the 'Discovery Tool' (edit the Intro module to find this)
• Add a 'Link List' module to your lens
• Add the 'Featured Lenses' module (looks prettier)
• Use HTML Code to manually link to your other lenses
