Lensroll: A Social Bookmarking Site Just for Squidoo Lenses!

It's a Digg for Squidoo pages

Most of the 100 social bookmarking sites above allow you to save all kinds of news, blogs, articles, and website pages. Many other bookmark services focus on a niche. Lensroll.com is one of those. Its niche is Squidoo lenses.

If you've got a lens you'd like to promote, simply register at the site and then submit your lens. You can submit up to two lenses a day, and users then vote in a Digg-like system to determine which ones appear on the front page.

Lensroll.com officially launched in December 2007, but as of January '08, it already has homepage PR3 and nearly 9,000 pages indexed in Google.

Social Bookmarking Submission Service

The list above can help you set up social bookmarking accounts at many different sites and create your own backlinks. But if you're strapped for time, simply don't like the tedium of signing up for so many accounts, or want to create more backlinks after you've already saved your bookmarks at these sites, you might want to consider hiring someone to do your social bookmarking.

I've used SubmitEdge with good results. Their social bookmarking services start at $35 for submission to 125 top sites. What's nice about this service is that they allow you to suggest three different titles and sets of keywords/tags. Many other services only allow one title and keyword set. They'll also send you a list of all the places to which they've submitted your site.

Tips and tools for webmasters and bloggers

What is Google PageRank?

And why should you care when using social bookmarking sites?

PageRank (often abbreviated to PR) is Google's patented way of determining a web page's importance. The PageRank scale goes from 1 - 10, with 10 being highest, and it factors in the quality and quantity of links that point to the page.

Google describes it this way:

"PageRank relies on the uniquely democratic nature of the web by using its vast link structure as an indicator of an individual page's value. In essence, Google interprets a link from page A to page B as a vote, by page A, for page B."

If you're using social bookmarking sites simply to recall your favorite pages, PageRank really isn't important. You should simply find a bookmarking site with features you like (Can you organize your bookmarks in folders? Can you highlight text on the site? Is it easy to save pages?).

But if you're a website owner, lensmaster or article writer using social bookmarking to help improve your site or article's searchability, PageRank is important. Google will likely find and index your site much more quickly if you add it to sites that already have PageRank rather than those that don't.

However, new sites are always springing up. A bookmarking service that has no PageRank or indexed links today may be doing very well three months from now. Also, remember that Yahoo!, MSN and other search engines have their own algorithms, so even though a site has only 10,000 links in Google, it may have 100,000 in Yahoo! or vice versa.

-- SEO expert Danny Sullivan has an excellent article on PageRank on Search Engine Land

-- WebWorkshop has a very comprehensive (and math-intensive) primer on Google PageRank

Another Free Link for Your Site

I learned of Qassia from BigJim's Add Your Profile lens (which is a great place to start your social networking).

It's a community rev-sharing site and directory that allows users to add articles or "intel," but it also aims to help webmasters promote their sites by giving you one quality backlink (not a "no-follow" link) for every piece of "intel" you add. It's still in beta, but looks promising.

You will be prompted to add the URL first and then will have a chance to write a short blurb, if you'd like.

Please note that due to spam, no links will go live without first being manually approved. If it's not a social bookmarking site, please don't waste your time or mine because your link will be deleted.
