Myspace, Web 2.0, blogs, social bookmarking, Facebook, etc. Those were the things that were supposed to bring us lots of targeted web traffic. Some people took advantage of those and a few of them made a killing.

But if you didn’t, there’s a new “thing” on the Internet, and you might do better trying this one out instead. It’s called “Squidoo” and is the brainchild of a prolific “non-guru” marketer Seth Godin.

Squidoo is a service that allows you to create your own web pages for free, and on those pages you can tie-together collection of RSS feeds, favorite sites and even promote your
own products or books.

Missed out on Myspace and other “trends” that you thought were not important? Don’t do the same with this one.

Squidoo helps you create a landing page for your website or blog. Please take a look at Squidoo page for my blog, Search For Blogging: www.squidoo.com/searchforblogging

You are free to customize your Squidoo page. You can insert your RSS feeds, update your profile, add some YouTube videos, and a lot more. It takes 10-20 minutes to create a lens (a Squidoo page is called lens)

Okay, so you made a lens. And you probably hope someone other than your hamster will see it. What to do next?

Email it. To your friends, your mom, your boss. Don’t be shy about bragging, you deserve a little limelight!
Blog it. Post your lens to your blog. Send a note to someone you admire who runs a blog on your topic, and ask them to check out your lens. Sincere flattery gets you everywhere.
Link it. Link to the lens on your Facebook page, LinkedIn profile, Flickr profile, eBay auctions, email signature. Create your own little traffic network and get discovered in more places. Wouldn’t you like to get found more online?
Group it! Find a Group that’s busy talking about your topic and request to join. Get friendly, get relevant, get feedback, get found.
Compete. Stop by the Lens of the Day Group for inspiration from winning lenses. And if your lens is up to snuff, enter it in the contest
