If you've done any Internet searches lately, chances are that you've heard of Squidoo. You may have heard people talking about it, or seen it on the front page of your favorite search engine. If you don't know exactly what Squidoo is or does, however, you could be missing out on one of the Internet's greatest online advertising and marketing methods.

If you have a website or blog, and want to get free traffic to it, using Squidoo is one of the quickest and easiest ways. Not only is it free and easy, it is also fun. Squidoo is so easy, that you can have it up and running, promoting whatever it is you want in 15 minutes. You don't even need any web or picture hosting service. Squidoo does it all for you. An affiliate marketer can use Squidoo to market the product they are trying to promote. One way to look at Squidoo is kind of like a blog, my space account, and a mini-site.

In Squidoo, you create what is called a lens. These are the Squidoo sites that you may have run across while searching on the Internet. These lenses are a Squidoo site used to promote a product or information. Within this lens, there are modules. Modules are basically like a post to a blog.

There are so many different types of modules to use, such as the EBay module for those who sell on EBay. There are also YouTube modules where can put a YouTube video within the module. In Squidoo modules, you can write articles, testimonials, and reviews about your product/service you are trying to sell. This is a great place to tell all the readers everything about this product/service, and to inspire them to learn more. You don't want to give away everything about it, as this is where you want to promote the product. You eventually want them to click through to the site where the product or service is sold.

By using an RSS feed module, you can bring traffic to your primary blog. Just load in your site's RSS feed and your lens will update automatically.

Squidoo has lots to offer. This helpful site gives you plenty of tips on choosing the right keywords for high quality traffic. Since many lenses rank high on Google, they're great for building backlinks to your primary website.

One of the great things about Squidoo is that it is free, yet you can earn a little bit of money when you use it. Squidoo makes it money from affiliate advertising with Google AdSense, EBay, and many other sites. They keep track of the earnings, for each module, and split the profits with you by half. If you choose, you can donate your money to a charity, set up through Squidoo.

Squidoo users like to make use of this site to get important information out there, and to let readers know about important thing. They can share information and experiences, as well as using Squidoo as an excellent online advertising marketing strategy. If you're not familiar with Squidoo yet, it's time to search for a site, and then have fun exploring.
