A Squidoo Lens is an excellent internet marketing tool that search engines live. Discover these blog commenting secrets for getting your Squidoo lens ranked high in the search engines including Google.

The best kind of links are one way links coming IN to your website where there is no reciprocal links going OUT.

Commenting on other people s blogs is the best way to get good incoming links to your own website. Find blogs in your niche or industry that high ranking, meaning they have a PR value of 8. To find blogs with a PR8, type: Your keyword plus blogspot into Google. You should find a blog comment on the first page of Google to a PR8 blog.

But make sure that the blog allows follow links. If they do not allow follow link, then having a comment on that blog will still bring your traffic, but it won t help with getting your lens ranking.

Always make sure your comments are relevant to the post, and never post the exact same thing twice.

Make sure that you leave a link to your lens with the comment. There is usually a website field for that link. You will get the best results when you use an html tag with anchor text that matches your primary keyword for that lens.

Another trick is to find .org and .gov blogs in your industry and leave comments on those blogs. Google will add a lot of weight to those links coming into your lens! Follow the same rules as above.

As an alternative to blog commenting, try forum posting. Find a forum in your niche and one that you resonate with. You will be spending some time there, so you might as well enjoy the people and topics of discussion. Most forums will require you to register at which time you can set up your signature with a link back to your lens.

Always make sure in all your blog commenting and forum posting that you provide value to the blog readers. Because if you are going to post unnecessary comments on the forum posting, the owner of the forum might probably delete what you have posted there. Or they might find your post a spam. To make sure that your post does not look like a spam, make sense of it as well. That way, you can assure that you can get some traffic from the readers.
