Just in response to this, lens rank has very little relation at all to anything outside of the squidoo 'community'. OK if you have a high one you'll get more traffic from squidoo members, and links to your squidoo lens will appear higher up pages of internal links on squidoo (there are lots of internal links on squidoo!), but it has no relation to how a search engine would see the content of that page. Don;t get trapped in the cycle of chasing lensrank, if you create something good and worthwhile with relevant content and links it will get traffic, which if used rightly will flow to your main site or affiliate links as you wish.
I know a number of lensmasters have 'seasonal' lenses that drop like a stone in lensrank outside of the targetted season, yet when it rolls around again gets lots of traffic.
I'll get back to the other thread in relation to your other point. (then maybe I'll get a chance to find out what Mr Wong is about!)
