I happened upon this trick by mistake; it made sense to add it to one lens, and then I thought, "Duh, why don't I do this on every lens?"
What is it?
I have a link list module at the bottom of every lens that is titled, "Other Lenses By I.C. Jackson You Might Enjoy". I put it after the guestbook so that it doesn't seem spammy - you just about have to be looking for more to read to even see it. Regardless of where it is on the page, the backlinks count, so in that respect, it's definitely a win-win. The placement is professional, and the value is priceless - it helps to create a web within the web for your content. And one of the keys to consistent traffic is keeping all of your content as connected as possible.
If you aren't already doing this or something like it, be sure to add it - it will increase your exposure, and the updates to your lenses will help increase lensrank, too!
To your continued success,
I.C. Jackson

This is a great idea! I think I did see it on one of your lenses... that's my job for tomorrow, to add a link list to my existing lenses.
The trick is managing all the tips and tricks as my list of lenses gets longer. How do people with 100+ (300+, 1000+) lenses do it?
Thanks for the tip, I will definitely implement it.
I too am putting this on my to do list. I love your blog by the way. I'm glad I happened upon it. ~Wendy
Even easier is to make that link list a link plexo - that way you will save yourself the trouble of having to add the same links into a link module every time.
Still, personally, I use the featured link module to link out to my lensographies. When you've got 50 plus lenses (100 + actually by now) promoting each on every lens becomes overkill.
An in between option is to have a link plexo with all lenses in a theme. Say all lenses about Buddhism could be in one link plexo. Just remember which lens you have the original on :)
