Is it really that hard to create a quality lens that provides good content as well as the backlink they are looking for?
With regards to bouncing round the SERP’s I would always recommend checking any inbound links in the comments section on your lens – linking to a ‘bad’ site in Google’s eyes could knock you down in the SERP’s – just an idea.

It is so weird. I have some lens that have tons of quality links to them and are optimized well. They get top 10 in Google for several months. Then one day they just disappear for a month or two. Then they come back to top ten and then disappear again.
Once lens I have did this appearing and disappearing act at least 8 times last year.
Lately it appears Google is filtering out a lot of my lenses.

Measures were taken to protect the Squidoo site and its lensmasters from future problems with Google and other search engines. In other words, spammers are no longer welcome and are quickly removed – IF they ever get published at all.
Again, great article!
