Exclamation Squidoo - An update on spam

If you didn't see this update last week here is the link: http://www.squidoo.com/blog/?p=155

There are a few changes to be aware. One change that will affect many lensmasters regards module counts:

Quote:
One modulers
Lenses with less than 3 modules (not including the introduction) will no longer appear to be published, even if they have been. This will get rid of those who don’t bother writing anything besides an introduction
I don't think I'll have a problem with a low module count on my lens.

No wonder some of my lenses got unpublished recently,
I did not know what it was, but I guess it was the low module count.

Thanks for the update

Thank you very much for giving a heads up on this. I was unaware of this policy change.

Back to work on my lens. I only have one out there.
I think their changes will make it an even more valuable place for links since they will be getting rid of the spammers.
Thanks for sharing the info Resale.

Yep.

This sounds like a reasonable and sound approach to keep the spam out. Just need to make sure and meet their expectations. Google is after relevance. Keeping that in mind is always a good thing IMO.

Oh wow, time to get busy with my new lens.
Note to self: spend less time on forums and create some content on squidoo
