squidoo marketingMarketing with free online tools is a great idea.  How can you make the most of free tools like Squidoo?  Here are some tips to help you!

A Picture: Worth 1000 Words

Put pictures on your lenses.  Not just at the top either, put a picture into each module. If you don’t have any pictures in mind, search sxc.hu for royalty free pictures.  Don’t forget to give your pictures a file name that utilises SEO. It can help!

Modules

Instead of using one block of text to write an article promoting an affiliate program, write lots of modules instead.  This way, you can have a bolded headline for each which will optimize for SEO and provide the scannability factor online users look for when browsing.

Interactivity

Add some polls, make some lists and use some of the other features in Squidoo that make your lens look different. How about ending your text with an open ended question? Then, have a guestbook and converse with your visitors on that guestbook.

Social Networking

Use your social networking skills to promote your lens.  Ping it, microblog about it, link to it in other sites of yours and write a few articles for article directories and link to your Squidoo lens in the bio box.  You can even put affiliate codes directly in a Squidoo list of links to send people directly to your hoplink.

Have a most outstanding day.
