The Introduction!
How to keep your visitor on your lens long enough to buy something!
Decorate your Crocs with Jibbitz!
Ever wonder why your Crocs have so many holes? Or maybe you don't have any Crocs, because you think they're too ugly? Perhaps you just wish they weren't so plain...
Jibbitz is the answer!
Jibbitz are charms for Crocs. They are a one-piece rubber design that you simply push through the holes in your Crocs. They are available in a huge variety of styles and themes to fit your interests and personalize your shoes. Whether your favorite thing is turtles, cheerleading, Mickey Mouse, or jigsaw puzzles, there are Jibbitz for you! And at only $2-$3 each, you can create a whole new look as often as you like to match the season, your outfit, or your mood. Have fun!
Thanks to Colleen from Freaknoodles for the great example
- Write a catchy title that includes at least one of your main keywords.
- Keep the intro short (2-3 paragraphs at the most) and include your best product picture or if you are branding your company name, include your logo.
- Make sure to include additional keywords, that your potential customers might search on but don't go overboard.
- I would also suggest staying away from bold or italics because they tend to draw attention to the font not the content.
- One last thing, make that first paragraph sing, because if your lens is ever featured by another lensmaster, using the Featured Lens Module, that is all readers will see.

Did you know that the US Route 66 highway is the most famous and talked about road in the United States? Some of the nicknames it has inheritated along the way are Route 66, The Main Street of America, The Mother Road and Will Rogers Highway.
It all began in 1926 in Chicago, Illinois and ended up 2,448 miles away in Los Angeles, California. It wasn't until 1938 that the road was completely aved. It was then deactivated in 1985 and replaced by the new Interstate Highway System. The old signs came down and portions of the road were designated a National Scenic Byway now known as "Historic Route 66".
You can stop by for lunch at the nostalgic 66 Diner in Albuquerque, tour the Route 66 Auto Museum in Santa Rosa, or stay at the Wigwam Motel in Holbrook. There are many motels, gas stations, diners and the famous corny roadside attractions along the highway.
"...and they come into 66 from the tributary side roads, from the wagon tracks and the rutted country roads, 66 is the mother road, the road of flight." -- John Steinbeck in "The Grapes of Wrath".
