For me as a relativly new squidoo user it seems that 2-5 quality rating boost your site and everything else is pretty much related to traffic / incoming links, where the traffic is the more important factor.

Still trying to figure out how often Squidoorati updates their lists of 5. Hoping one of mine shows up there soon!

Definitely a very useful post, Captain - thank you. I'll be back to check everything out properly but right now I have to finish my packing.

Thanks for the mention about my comments on the Squidoorati as reported by MiMi aka GrowWear. I personally would hope that it will develop into being a worthwhile listing of lenses that are ALL the TOP lenses, not simply those being updated or squidcasted. I rather like a thumbnail overview that's concise, but accurate. And, count me in as someone who doesn't want to see spammy lenses giving the perception of 'that's Squidoo.' Hey there mighty Captain!

If you update your lens, you are also in the top 5 -- until other folks come along and update after you and move you off the list. Squidoorati is definitely a heater-upper. :D Forgot where all I posted squidcast only. Words to haunt me in my dreams!

I didn't notice the new amazon modules but I DID see something called "text plus big picture" I'd never noticed before...of course since I don't experiemtn w/new modules much maybe that one isn't new? ah HA!

Being at Alltop, to me, means the "cream of the crop" is on display and directly linked at a very credible, unaffiliated, an off-site location. It says to the world that we ARE doing something worthwhile, and here it is! I think Alltop is great! (The five lenses below each category are the top five "latest updated" out of the 100.)
