Your Squidoo Lens and Google - a Match Made in Heaven
Google LOVES Squidoo lenses - even brand new ones!
Squidoo lenses tend to rank extremely well in Google's Search Engine Results Pages (SERPs).Be warned, however, that new webpages - including your lenses - tend to bounce around a bit in the SERPs before settling.
Your new lens may debut on the first page of Google's SERPs for one or more of its keywords - Woo Hoo! - but then disappear completely after a few days.
Don't panic! It'll be back soon. This is annoying, but completely normal.
If you create a good lens and build incoming links and traffic to it (as outlined in Squid U, the Squidoo forum, and Squidoo Traffic Power) - your lens will reappear and rise continually to a higher level.
Squidoo's "Lens of the Day"
