Squidoo Page Indexing Problem

Posted by Sweta Shah at 7:08 AM 0 comments

See my squidoo love is not still decrease. Again one more post on squidoo. Today I am going to talk about Squidoo Lens Indexing problem in Search engines. Not only Google but also Yahoo is not indexing lens.

Now first I like to tell about lens and some SEO activity I did for it. The lens is one month old (and still not indexed). So if your lens gets index quickly then you lucky. After long talk in squidU I come with this “being lucky” conclusion. Since a week I am submitting lens in directory and book marking sites. Even I Digg it also. And also did some small activity. But till today its not indexed.


As SEO what is the solution for this? I am still searching. As I had started building links and didn’t get indexed. I also don’t trust with this building links and getting index with squidoo. Because lots of my lens gets index without backlinks and even you have also experienced that.

For short solution I am trying to get lens in top 100 positions I reach till 320.

Really this fastest way to lose weight is taking out my patience.

And other fact I comes to know is Google is showing only 2 squidoo pages in search result. Now its hard to gain traffic in thorough search engine. And after introduction of Knol it will be harder.

Some helpful Resources:

1. SquidU forum discussion on Google Indexing Problem?

2. Submit Squidoo lens, hubpages, ezine article page, gather, ehow, associated content

3. List of Social Media Sites which pass page rank juice
