To blog or not to blog?
Well, that is a question many young Squids are asking themselves. So, they have been told that blogging is a great way to get quality backlinks for your lenses. And it’s best to keep your blog narrow niche. Great advices! But wait?! What does it really means?
If you just started making lenses on Squidoo, it’s likely that you created 5 lenses in 4 niches!
And it’s normal! Nothing to worry about! It took me over 20 lenses to find out what the heck is niche?! But what now? Make 4 blogs? Each for one niche? (Remember the tip you received: narrow niche blogs have better chance to succeed!?)
My advice: Don’t start working on blog for now. Wait. Make more lenses. When you come to 20 lenses, you’re more likely to see with which of your lenses Google and Yahoo fall in love with and send them traffic! Than, take a look at those lenses and decide to develop a niche from them. Link them together through featured lenses modules, link lists or lensroll. And start a blog. One. Or more. Time and Google will tell what you need to know. It’s up to you will you listen to them.

A blog on Squidtop is a good alternative to a niche blog. Doesn’t have to be so focused and helps Google find your lenses.
