Squidoo Affiliate links: theirs vs. mine
Now, I've been told that this is not against their TOS and have no indication that there's anything wrong with it.
Here's what's happening.
I take a lens that's rated at 100% and change all the links to mine. The lens drops to 95% with a suggestion that I add in an Amazon spotlight module or an mp3 module.
I add in an mp3 module and it goes right back to 100%
This tells me that Squidoo really does prefer that I used at least one module with their affiliate link in it. This is true even for lenses that have no affiliate link modules in them as I have some that are informational and didn't have Amazon or any other kind of affiliate links in them and they needed me to put in an Amazon module in order to have a 100% lens.
My question is, what do you think the importance is of that 100% rating?
Does it contribute to tier ranking? Does it hurt anything to leave a lens with a 95% rating?
