Squidoo Question

    I'm still quite new to all these internet bookmarking/blog/article sites and I'm still get the hang of them all and how they can help increase traffic to my blog.

    I just wanted to know how Squidoo can help? I know the links are all dofollow... do I just create Lenses on things related to my blog and put links to my blog in the lens? Or is there more to it?

    Thanks :)

    The lens pages seem to rank well based on the authority of Squidoo.

    There was a Squidoo Slap where the lens pages dropped in rankings, not sure if they recovered or not I don't mess with it.

    Go the Blues!!!

    I joined Squidoo to get some links back but I have seen best results with HubPages ;)

    There's a few ways you can use it, but that certainly is one of them.

    If you write something unique for your lens you'll avoid search engines penalising or ignoring you for duplicate content.

    Any site that has a dofollow link to your site helps you in the search engine rankings... some sites which are related to your site help more than sites that arent related.

    If you write a squidoo lens about a topic related to your site and link to your site from there with a keyword you are targetting, then you will get some backlink juice.

    There are tons of ways to get free backlinks and to do link building.
