2. Thousands of marketers have realized the incredible
profit-generating benefits of Squidoo. The time to
capitalize on this relatively new Web 2.0 marketing
opportunity is definitely now. As Squidoo's popularity
continues to grow, the availability of niche keyword lens
titles will diminish. As of this writing, there are still highly
profitable niche keywords available to use as niche lens
titles.
3. If your desire is to make a profit with your Squidoo lenses,
there are several important steps you need to implement
to ensure success.
4. 1. Perform serious keyword research for your lens. This
must be your first step. The keywords in the title of your
Squidoo lens are just as important as the title of any
website. Use a good keyword tool such as Overture or
even Good Keywords to search for keywords that are
searched between 2000 and 50,000 times per month.
Although Squidoo is doing quite well in the search
engines, I wouldn't be over-zealous and use keywords that
are searched for over 50,000 times per month. Squidoo
allows you to submit up to 20 tags, so you should use all
20 tags and be sure to use 3-4 keyword phrases to make
up each keyword. They seem to work better with
Squidoo.

6. 3. Find quality incoming links to your Squidoo lens. This is
very important to your rankings in the search engines.
The sites which link to your Squidoo lens should have a
page rank of 4 or higher. Incoming links that work well
with Squidoo are social bookmarking sites, classified ad
sites like Craigslist and social networking sites like YouTube
and MySpace. Be sure to follow these websites'
guidelines. It's also a good idea to place a link to your
Squidoo site on your blog.
