The reasons why these are My Worst Ranked Squidoo Lenses Ever

There could be a number of reasons why these lenses listed here aren't doing so well. The most commonest reason is that they are not yet indexed by Google. Let's see if I can change that :)

About these Squidoo Lenses 

This lens will list my worst 5 Squidoo Lenses of all time. Every now and again this list will change as I work (hard!) to increase the traffic and ranking by promotion, Google indexing, comments, ratings and feedback.

See how many times I can change this lens and the lenses listed here!

WindyWinters says:

Pst *Try a test & change the titles
*Try changing then all to Top....something
*Then reword the titles a bit if necessary
*Then promote them by lensrolling to other lensmasters "related lens".
Hope that helps! Cheers!

you got good ideas and I love to visit your lenses... this one proves it, but since you're asking - it's probably not a good idea ever to optimize them to have them ranked for keywords in Google :)

They are but they shouldn't be! Here let me help you...

JaguarJulie says:

Carrie, those sound like reasonable topics that SHOULD get traffic and better ratings. You know, I really think it is because there are now a gazillion lenses competing for a limited number of highly visible spots. If we had more visibility for more lenses within the different categories, it might help to get yours seen.

OhMe says:

I can't imagine why you aren't getting the traffic to these two lenses. I enjoyed the read and sure thought you did an excellent job with them.

I have a couple that are low ranking for good reason (they stink) and I have one or two that SHOULD rank well and don't...MAKES ME MAD! Guess they aren't optimized well, but darn it, when they're on a topic I care about and I have a story to tell, I'm going to tell it my way, not the way a search engine wants to see it. Good luck with yours!

Hmmm, improving this lens -- check our title -- title case and no hyphens. Personally, I might have JUST stuck with the topic of your lens and put the high ranking on another lens to discuss your best ranked lenses.

This lens fits in perfectly with my Lenses that Never Made It lens. Great work, keep at it!

Great idea of a lens. I sure get concerned about my bottom ones. Most of mine are seasonal and there is not much I can do about that.

Thank you for trying to help my lens "Squid Etiquette". It's getting lots of traffic but stays at the bottom of the pile because clickouts are not appropriate for this lens :(
