In my distribution realted site, I find that greeeen (as in the color) is a hot item. So to is, meerger...

Hope this helps you...

What's your goal for more traffic? To start a dialog, you can't wait for people to come to you. Reach out to others with blogs and lenses that feature similar themes, and comment on them from your len's perspective, and mention your lens in your posting (as appropriate).

Dear Jose

The most successful users of the web for business and social or hybrid networks cross reference themselves on other sites. So, for example if you have a Squidoo Lens, it is perfectly alright to mention it or link to it on other sites such as LinkedIn, Ecademy, and GoodReads and so on.

Thomas Power who founded Ecademy appears along with his own top business networkers, to become members of other sites at the rate of about one a week. Once they are established on the other networking site, they set about befriending and getting to know members of the other sites. I know this only because as a member of Ecademy, I get an email from Thomas asking to either get to know me on another site or for me to join him on his network on that site.

It involves quite a bit of targeted work as all the sites discourage mass, spam like communications from members to other members, so they have to at least read a biography to see why they should engage someone.

I so liked the idea of Squidoo that after being told about it for years, I finally paid a visit (Thanks to you actually!) and I’m going to launch a trial lens on my own speciality subjects.

Well done – you’ve managed to make me do what various masters of the universe have spectacularly failed to achieve!

Good luck with this endeavour and if you decide to join up with every site which takes your fancy, please invite me along to join you – it will save me some of the need to research them all. (My personal contact details are in my Biography here)
