Squidoo is already taking action. I would suggest reviewing their new policies. Here's a thread from earlier today: http://www.realestatewebmasters.com/thread16983.html

Man, google tore apart squidoo values.


I dropped a full page on my keywords in google search.


Hopefully, with squidoo implementing anti-spam policies, google will give it back some juice.

I'm actually not too sure. I have a lens at Squidoo, but I still have no idea how it works. I would wait for someone else to recommend something

I've gotten an email from the squidoo team talking about the spam and what they are doing to combat it.

Leave it to the spammers to screw up a nice web information vehicle.

My lens was dropped on its head today by Google. The only way you can find it is in quotes.

They aren't targeting specific lenses are they? Are they all being slaughtered?

I dont' think Google is targeting any specific lenses. I probably tripped a filter somewhere.
