Where to Submit Your Lenses
T
here are an increasing number of sites for the lensmaster to use as tools for getting more traffic, self-promotion and interaction with other Squidoo members.
It took me a long time to find all these directories on my own, and some of them I have still not submitted to! There never seems to be enough time in the day to get to it all...
Squidoo lens directories are websites which allow you to submit your lenses to be voted and commented on.
Some have strict quality requirements.
Some have limits on how many you can submit per day.
Some are associated with message boards.
I hope that having a list of all of them in one place will be helpful to our newer lensmasters who may not be sure where to look just yet. For each directory, I have included any details I am aware of regarding its user policies.
If anyone knows of a site I have not included, please message me so I can add it!
"Disclaimer": The sections titled "In its own words" were copied from the actual sites in the belief that using them would help promote them and gain them traffic. If any of the webmasters would like the quotes removed, please just ask.

Squid Kingdom...Squidom
bout Squidom.com...I originally planned to develop a Squidoo inspired blog on this site. But, after a few months of neglect, and discovering digg knock-off scripts, I decided to put up a Squidoo lense directory. And thanks to the Squidoosphere, that turned out to be a great direction to take the site in.
My mission...
To help lensmasters get one-way quality links to their lenses.
Upcoming...
I have some new features planned for this autumn. I also will be putting up an official Squidom.com blog very very soon. I would, also, like to run a few contests to help promote submitters and the site.
Requirements:
Official Squidom.com Submission Guidelines:
* Only pages from Squidoo.com may be submitted. In other words, the link submitted must be prefaced with 'http://www.squidoo.com'.
* No ADULT lenses may be submitted or your account will be killed.
* Heed PotPieGirl's advice before promoting your lenses across the net.
* I reserve the right to edit submissions for grammar and outright spelling mistakes.
* I, also, reserve the right to KILL submissions that I do not feel are appropriate for this site.
Members vote and comment on other lensmasters' submissions.

- Good resource TankDog. I like the Requirements and Quotas. I might add that Lensmaster World also has pay options, and that their free option requires a reciprocal link.
Also, SquidPoint seems to be down. Maybe add Article Troll to your list.
5*

- Very nice list. I am working my way through them a few at a time. I wanted to mention that the add link page on squidirectory was not functioning today. Not sure what the problem might be, but thought that I'd save someone else the aggravation of entering all the information only to find that they could not submit when they were finished.
