I haven't used it since they banned me and I tried to contact but they didn't respond. But I am thinking about going back... But for some reasons, I don't think it has the google juice like before! Any input on this?
Squidoo has it back. For the last month or so my Squidoo traffic is significantly higher than HP traffic because of higher SERPs, despite of the fact that my hubs received way more promotion than lenses.
Thanks Misha! I guess I have to get back in the game soon.
What is Google Juice? Anyone can explain to me? I join Squidoo but have not written any.
I get plenty of Google SE traffic to my hubs.
What were you banned for?
Squidoo...banned..you? Were you spamming ?
From what I can tell Squidoo gets plenty of Google Juice, except on certain days where it just drops out due to formula changes.
I seem to get a lot of hits there! You can check me out under:

I like Squidoo just wish they payed a little better for your writings (but then I wish that all the online sites did that lol) - I think Squidoo works best for creating linkage or to promote products that you are selling or a business that you are trying to get off the ground. It works for me.

I was greedy and tried to dominate the whole niche and it backfired.... The point is that they didn't bother to respond. Well, I am ready to go back, but HP already took a big chunk of time already... Maybe I can go back in about a week or so....

There has been a lot of discussion in the last few days about HP changing the rules and people being un-featured or even un-published for spam and over promotional activity. So I just want to add my thoughts......Whether people (writers) like it or not most of their traffic will be coming from...

I'm 100% on the side of doing a proper beta test and taking time to make sure every kind of lens transfers with ease - from the small simple ones to the big long complex ones - like mine! I'm less bothered by WHEN my lenses transfer to HubPages than I am about WHETHER they all transfer intact -...

Is it better to write for HubPages or Squidoo?Recently, I've heard a lot about Squidoo being possibly better than HubPages in many aspects. Which do you think is better to write for if you're looking for traffic and earnings?

See this article where they say they are experimenting with staff accounts:http://www.squidoohq.com/2011/09/13/wer … -accounts/I think they are prompted by the fact that HP appears to be slowly moving out of teh Panda penalty (albeit with some accounts seeing wild movements). Here's...

This drop in traffic seems to have affected the majority of us who transitioned here from Squidoo. After we updated our articles are traffic virtually stopped dead. The question is why? Was our redirect from Squidoo killed with the update? What the heck happened? Please try to figure out why the...

After over a month of careful watching, here is what I have observed as an HP writer;1- My "reads" on HP are steady at 400+ daily.2- Google (US, AU, NE, UK, CA, etc) have all but abandoned my articles with a dramatic decrease in Google Traffic. 3- All of my other sources of traffic are...
