Also, does joining the groups make such a huge difference & how can you assess my lens? I mean, how do you know that i joined groups recently?

on the right hand side of your lens content theirs a column with various links, ads, etc, here you see all the lenses you have lensrolled, and all the groups you joined, also you will see who favorited your lens. You'll also see links to the top 10 of that category.
As for updating it, this will help increase your lensrank, squidoo, like google, likes fresh content, so does reward it with a lensrank boost. ( I also have a sneaky suspicion this is to create a squidoo addiction! ) It doesn't have to be daily, but a regular say monthly, or weekly if you have the time, whether this is based on forthcoming events/attractions near the New Dehli B&B, or just adding a little more detail or even re-editing the current detail.
Edited to add - Idon't actually know when you joined groups, only that you have. As your ranking was high enough to get a mid tier payout from february, I imagine this is either when you created it and you joined those groups, or just the joining of those groups helped the lensrank.
A note about joining groups, there are many, many groups on squidoo, if you successfully join one, you may not get 'featured' on the group page, but it does create an internal backlink to your lens, and it's likely you'll get at least one visit from the group owner before approval. I wonder if someone will set up a UKWW group? Everyone from here could then maybe have upto 5 lenses featured on the group? How about it Temi? ( I can set it up and share moderation editing if you're unsure of doing it yourself?)
