That’s the question… I made a Hey Monkeybrain lens about this: Would you rather have a squidangel blessing or a quality link?
One of the less known SEO considerations is that if there are too many links on a page, google may not take all of them into account. An often heard number is 100. So if there are more than a hundred links on a page, only the top 100 actually help the pages they link [...]
Anybody as disappointed with the new Text with BIG Picture module as I am? Here’s what it does:
The picture is aligned to the center of the lens, meaning that the left side is in the center. The rest of the picture is to the right of that. There is no resizing done at all, which [...]
Michelle Willow and aj2008 were having a debate on Saturday about whether it hurts squidoo if people rate lenses only because other people have rated their lenses aka rating swaps.
Personally I think it depends. If I rate a person’s lenses what I see happen is: they look in my list of lenses to find the [...]
Don’t know where they’re coming from, but I’ve been getting great traffic. Today my lenses topped 3000 visitors a week in total.
Especially popular are:
Spiritual Quotes and Wisdom Sayings
Red Cheeks – there is a solution!
and in Dutch:
Spirituele Spreuken, Citaten en Gezegden
None of them do well in the sales department by the way. Still haven’t figured out [...]
Just introducing two of my lenses: theosophy blogs – please someone rate this, it gets decent traffic, but no votes (also still looks a bit weird – wish someone would look at that bug report I sent on it).
Interesting perhaps for more of you: my collection of spiritual blogs. If I missed any of [...]
I have made a lens I’m very proud of today – and it’s not even quite finished yet. But finished enough to tell you all about.
Marion Zimmer Bradley – a fantasy author of renown. She fought for women’s rights in religion, researched paganism and her most famous book became a source of inspiration for wiccans [...]
Hi all,
I had a 100 lenses before deadline, but did not make it into the giant squid top 100 club. Reading through the giant squid guidelines I think the reasons that I did not make it are:
I have a few lenses that are quite similar. I experimented with templates and created some lenses that don’t [...]
Negotiating is hard. I have hardly done any, yet I already know it’s true.
Brand new giant a_willow (congrats btw) has a whole series of lenses on negotiating. She has taken the advice to make several lenses within one topic, in order to be seen as an expert. Well, that worked
[I tried importing the [...]
To be a successful lensmaster you have to create various skill sets for yourself. One is, obviously, to create great lenses.
The other skill is somewhat illusive: how do you get traffic to those bundles of joy? You have to get links.
