Squidoo Marketing Strategies - Trade a comment for a quality backlink

Every day I receive emails from internet marketers like
Derrick Van Dyke, Michael Fortin and Brad Callen.

Nowadays, these emails offer a free report, video,
ebook and/or blog post.

It is only recently that I have come to act on the
"invitation to comment" included at the end of these
emails.

I might be invited to add some comment on a video
or blog post.

Often the comment link will take me to a blog/website
with a high Google ranking (4 or 5).

This represents the perfect opportunity for me to
create a high quality, one-way backlink to my own
Squidoo lens or blog.

These top internet marketers love your comments - it
gives them much needed feedback and also boosts (or
maintains) the Google ranking of their site.

Why not keep your eye out for these invitations and
act on them to boost your own lens rank.

You can even get direct traffic to your lens from the
comment.

Here's an example:
I posted to Rosalind Gardner's blog, Net Profits Today,
on one occasion and put in a link to Rosalind's own book,
the Super Affiliate Handbook. Someone sent me an email,
said they appreciated my post and bought Rosalind's book
through my affiliate link.

Rosalind's blog has a Google ranking of 5. At the moment
she is looking for feedback on the use of Technorati tags and
is keen to hear about the challenges you face as an affiliate
marketer.

In the meantime, you could leave a comment about this
blog post (with a hyperlink to your lens/blog) in the
comment area below.

This blog has a Google ranking of 3 or 4 (depending on the
whim of Google on the day).
