After going through the traffic statistics of this blog for the past few days, I realized that there is a keyword trend/theme that people are searching to find my blog. People are very interested in how to use Squidoo lens as landing pages and make money by promoting other people products through Squidoo. So, I have decided to write a post about this and address the Squidoo questions.

Basically, Squidoo is a very important marketing channel for me when it comes to online marketing. Google loves Squidoo and Squidoo lens tend to get high rankings on Google for several keywords. The thing I like most about Squidoo is that you can get rank for several targeted long-tailed keywords if you have the right content in your lens.

The first step when creating your Squidoo lens is to do your keyword research. You need to identify a set of keywords that you wish to target. This set of keywords should be closely related to what you are offering and those keywords should be “buying keywords”. Key phrases like “Free Download” and “XXX product crack” are not buying keywords. People who types in these kind of key phrases are looking to get the product for free. That is why it is extremely important for you to understand the keyword profile that you are going to target with your lens in order to get the most efficient result from it. Keywords like “Book Title” and “Book Title Review” are extremely targeted keywords which will most likely bring you sales.

Below is a Squidoo lens that I have just created. Basically, the keyword theme of this lens is to target a review of an affiliate marketing guide that I am promoting. You can take a look by clicking on the link below:

If you are new to Squidoo, you can start off by creating a very simple lens. A simple lens will consists of a main paragraph of content, with GuestBox and other gadgets at the end of the lens. Just get the Squidoo up and running first. You can always add more content to it later on to increase your long-tailed keyword volume.

The key is to take ACTION now. Creating Squidoo lens is just like article marketing - You need to start writing. After you have get your first lens up and running, you will be surprised at how fast you can get the second lens up. =)
