1) Choose Long-Tail keywords

Google loves Squidoo. And that means if you optimize your site around long-tail keywords (those that tend not to have a lot of competition in the search engines), then you stand a good chance of dominating the search engines for those keywords.

Now, you probably know that keywords that don't have a lot of competition from other marketers are that way for a reason. Namely, they also don't get a lot of traffic. But collectively, optimizing for dozens of these sorts of keywords can bring in hundreds or even thousands of visitors.

TIP: Use WordTracker to uncover the best keywords with the smallest amount of competition.

2) Create Your Page

Once you have your long-tail keywords (like “how to train a poodle”), it's time to create your Squidoo page. Ideally, you should use your keywords in your Squidoo Lens title, in your links, and sprinkled throughout your content at about a 3% to 5% density rate (meaning your keywords show up 3-5 times for every 100 words of content).

But don't just focus on your keyword density rate and nothing else. You need to create a page that others will appreciate. And that's because Squidoo members rate your page – the better rating you get, the higher your site will be ranked on Squidoo… and the more traffic you get.

TIP: Be sure to encourage people to rate your site!

3) Drive Traffic to Your Page

Next, you should promote your site by doing things like: Blogging about it; Exchanging links with other Squidoo members; Writing articles and submitting them to article directories; Telling your list about it.

4) Network With Others

Finally, you need to use the social aspects of Squidoo by networking with like-minded members. Comment on their blogs. Link to them. Get them to join your list of contacts.

Why? Because the more contacts you have and more respected you are in the community, the more traffic you'll get… and the more money you'll make. It's as simple as that.
