Thread: Squidoo has helped our Rankings.

I just started lens in Squidoo like two weeks ago and the lens are already ranked in google and some even on page one for our keywords.

Please stop by my lens and rank them 5 stars if you feel they deserve it!
And place a blurb, ( a comment) on my lens:

My lens are climbing in rankings everyday and just last week they were all ranked in google for our key words! It is pretty exciting!

My best lens is:

http://www.squidoo.com/TeachersOfTheSecret
with a overall ranking of 778 and in how to and education
it is ranked # 76. That is out of over 180,000 lens!

The next best ranked lens is:
http://www.squidoo.com/WellingtonFloridaRealEstate
this one is ranked 2325 overall and is on the first page of google for our keywords. This one links to our main website as well. Not bad for less than a month of working on these lens!

The one we are currently working on is:

Thanks and stop by and see my progress so far.

I have had great success with Squidoo I can't post my sites because I don't have 15 posts yet.

Please share your successes. What exactly are you doing and what are the results you are getting? Are you getting leads or just high rankings in google?
Anything turn into business yet? You can go to my lens and leave a blurb with your lens and I will visit your lens.

Squido has been penalized by Google:

Any link juice you were getting is probably all gone until Squido gets back in the grace of Google.

The google slap will get worked out. It was because IMers were selling ebooks about so called secrets to getting traffic from Squidoo and so the spammers hit hard in one week. In one day a spammer in Brazil build 400 spam lens in Squidoo all on the same subject! Here is a link to a great interview with the owner of Squidoo, Seth Godin.

It will get worked out and pages will get reranked on google if they have good content which is what google wants.

so do you think your pages on squidoo with links to your site were penalized?

My main website did not get the penalty. But for a few days my lens did get dropped from page 2 and 3 on google. They are working it all out. I believe as long as I provide good content, it is all worth it in the end. I am still showing up for keywords as I view my stats on Squidoo people are still finding my lens when they search specific terms. I will let you know how this all turns out.

When this first happened my lens vanished from Google's index. I believe it was exactly 14 days when my lens emerged from the depths to occupy its previous position.

Even if squidoo gets back its juice google will still look at links from there to your site with a weary eye I am sure. That game is over for a long while now.

I have also heard and read weird reviews about it...though didn't use...I think it is not effective for getting ranking
