Updated my Search Engine Optimization for Squidoo Lens - Thu, 23 Oct 2008

Just letting you all know that I've put in a links module in which I've linked to all my blog posts about Squidoo and SEO.

About terminology: stumbleupon and tagfoot are NOT SEO - Wed, 15 Oct 2008

They don't bring the search engines to your door. More explanation about this on my lens.

Tags NOT as important for SEO as thought - Mon, 01 Sep 2008

The Fluffanutta reports that tag pages AREN'T indexed by Google. This means that tag pages are NOT important for SEO!

I feel a bit peeved that the people at squidoo HQ didn't think to TELL us that before. The block for search engines has been in effect since late 2007!

It also goes to show that we need more SEO nit pickers. None of us thought to check the robots.txt file before this :(

Some details added about tags.... - Sun, 03 Aug 2008

Some of my own lenses are dropping in traffic - being dropped from google totally.

Does this mean the tips don't work - well no: I've not been applying them all as well as I should. Some of my best ranking lenses had hardly any external links. It's not really all that easy to get external links for squidoo lenses...

But the forums did note a few things, which I'll be blogging about soon... http://spirituality.squidtop.com/

In the mean time I added some information on over optimization here.
