Get Backlinks the Easy Way!

If you're looking for a way to add a dynamic and interactive social bookmarking widget to your lens, you've come to the right place.

Powered by AddThis.com, this widget appears a single button that supports almost all of the social networks. Stick this on your lens (e.g. under the Guestbook), and your visitors will be able to easily bookmark it, and this will bring more visitors.

Bookmark This Lens 

Below is how the widget appears to visitors. If you hover your mouse over the button, you'll see a small popup with the most common social sites listed. Click on the 'more' link to see a more complete list, or just click on the button itself.

Go on, give it a try!

Add This Widget to Your Lens 

To begin, click this link (opens in a new tab or window)

Then, you'll see a screen similar to the one shown above. Assuming that you are logged in to Squidoo, you will be able to select any one of your lenses from the first drop-down menu. You can then fill in the module's title, sub-title and description, just like you would for any other module.

Once you are happy with the details, click on the big blue 'Continue' button at the bottom. This will then load up your selected lens in the workshop, where you can refine the module's placement and contents.

The bookmark button will appear on your lens as soon as you've published it.

Please Note:
This is not an official module, and therefore it is not supported by Squidoo.

If you have any problems or questions about this, then please contact me.

Thank you for this lens. I've finally put that widget to use. Its a long time I've been wondering how others have gotten this bookmark widget on their lens. And here I am..just when I've decided to put it on the backshelf I discovered your lens. Coincidence? Hmm..
You've done fantastic job with the explanation and made it easily accessible too. See how I have used it for the first time on this lens www.squidoo.com/mobsterworld
