Online marketing with spiritual integrity
This is the story of a lens that gets most traffic. Today it gets, as you can see, about a hundred visitors a day. That’s enough for a permanent spot in the squidoo top 2000, and with people voting on it regularly it’s enough for a regular spot in the top 100 as well. It [...]

I’d like to illustrate the power of links, and the power of google, a bit today. I got a few links recently – on one lens this one link from an outside blog had the effect of: One visitor from that blog – most likely the owner checking whether the link worked 10 visitors from [...]
I’ve been mentoring a lensmaster recently. I felt one of her lenses could perhaps be broken up. She wanted to know the advantages. I could not give a good answer. I thought about it and here are a few reasons lenses could be shorter (if they’re long enough obviously). Breaking up lenses into more focused [...]
