If you mean you have UAW contributing content to a blogger blog that IS your support blog.

You add the links to your squidoo lenses in the sidebar ~ that creates the links back to them ~ make sure you use your keywords as the anchor text of the links.

You can also write a post on that blog that will link back to your lens. Just because UAW provides content for it, doesn’t mean you can’t as well.

If you have 100 lenses you could link to them all in the sidebar ~ but it’s probably better to write posts. and pick your favorites, to do sidebar links for.

Jackie,

Do I still need a support blog if I choose to use Unique Article Marketing? I am not sure if I understood you correctly, but do you list your squidoo lens or blogger urls with your products information and affiliate links on the UAW sidebar? If you have over a hundred lenses do you add all to the sidebar?

Thank you.

do you mean add an rss feed to your lens? If that’s what you need this should help: http://internetmarketingformommies.com/squidoo-lens-tutorial-the-last-few-modules/

Jackie, do you have a tutorial on how to set up the rss feed at Squidoo? I don’t understand how to use this feature. Thank you.

yes, you could use an image of the product in your blog post. OR you could use the visual call to action (yes, just copy/paste what you have on squidoo). I would link images directly to the product, but make sure you have an anchor text link in your content back to your squidoo lens.

I would do either/or the image or call to action. The chances of this site getting traffic are slim ~ so don’t spend a bunch of time on it, but don’t make it look to salesy with a bunch of images/call to actions either.

Hi Jackie,

Thank you for the info. If I understand correctly, we can use an image of the product we’re promoting on our blog, and you recommend we make it clickable. Clickable to our lens or directly to Amazon?

Re the ‘visual call to action’, do you mean copy and paste what we have on our Squidoo lens?

Thanks.

hit the code/source/html button in your blogging platform text editor and insert it just like you do at Squidoo. (not sure what blog platform you’re using and what terminology they use so it will probably be one of those three)
