Increase your web presence by creating a Squidoo Lens for your website.
Squidoo is a PR7 user generated lenses site which is a very powerful tool in internet marketing. In order to make use of Squidoo for getting links for your website, you must understand how Squidoo works. Squidoo uses tags to categorize the user created pages, or ‘lenses’ as they are called. Whenever a user creates a Squidoo lens, tags must also be created for each lens. All of the user-generated lenses are linked to tag pages, which are in turn linked back to all the lenses that use the same tag. This is how automatic links are generated for the lens you create in Squidoo. Your Squidoo lens’ PageRank increases because of the links it automatically receives from the tag pages!
It is a known fact that links from authority sites are more valuable than links from non-authority sites. Squidoo is one such authority site, and helps you achieve a higher ranking. Authority sites are simply credible online resources on a given topic, which have other websites linking to them on the strength of that credibility. When Search Engines notice links from an authority site like Squidoo, the credibility of your own site increases. This is what makes a Squidoo lens so valuable for creating quality links.
Hubpages is another popular social network site. It gives you the opportunity to get your website more hits and to bring you potential customers and clients. This is because even if people can’t find your website within search engine search they may come across your hubpage, which will contain links back to your website, thus bringing you more traffic. So what can you do with a hubpage?
On a hubpage you can include aspects such as links, images, text and RSS feeds as well as videos, all of which can be used as means of promoting your website and again, like with Squidoo lens you are able to produce a number of hubpages and the more you have the better chance you have of driving more traffic to your website.
