searched for this answer but among all the threads that come back i can not find my answer to this simple question: - what is squidoo, and how can it help our company? Thank you.
www.squidoo.com/why www.squidoo.com/what Not sure how it can specifically help your company. It would depend on what your company is about, how it's marketed, who your customers are, and where they are.
It's a site where people build 'signposts' to content they like by recommending links, videos, products, and writing reviews of things they like. It has a high google crawl rate and value passing links which both help for SEO. It also has a very active community that is really helpful. I know that's somewhat vague but you truly can use the platform for pretty much whatever you want.
I allow people to post content on my blog as well. all links are dofollow so you'll get free backlinks. I think it's just like squidoo btw my blog: acakadut.com
squidoo is like a blog hosting site. you can post articles or other kinds of contents in squidoo, with link to your blog and your site. but you cannot add google adsense in your lens in squidoo. instead, they will place their own ads and you will get revenue from the ads.
You can use Squidoo to create focussed niche pages with each one promoting a specific aspect of your business.
You can creat pages that link back to your site... you can also make money through profit sharing... any ads clicked on that site can make you a percentage of the money.
squidoo lets you create pages about things you like ( lenses ). In those page you can drop links to your site. You make your own backlinks. more backlinks, higher rankings in google
Squidoo is basically an information website. You create what is called "Lenses" (web pages) in Squidoo targeting your business. For example, you can explain the interesting facts about your business and how it is going to be useful for others. You get free advertising and reachability using Squidoo!
