Google Indexing = Traffic Boom!

I had myself a nice little surprise this morning, when logging into my Squidoo account, and finding that my 5 Lose Weight Exercises For Maximum Calorie Burn lens had picked up the same amount of visitors in the last week (while I’ve been away on holiday), as it had from the day it was launched.

Now – this may or may not sound impressive – but, taking into account that the lens was launched just over 5 months ago makes this a quite significant feat!

The reason for this surge in traffic?

The lens has been indexed by Google! And Google indexing on a quality website/lens means serious traffic flow.

I’ll be honest – I was wondering what was going on – and what the reason might be that it seemed so hard to get Google to pick up my lens? I’d been doing back linking like you normally would, registering with relevant groups on Squidoo to get a good status on the social linking within Squidoo and targeting relevant keyword phrases.

Today this seems to matter a little bit less – the fact of the matter is that Google has indexed my lens – and they’re sending me lots of targeted traffic. It goes to show that building lenses with lots of quality content matters. It’s all good!
