Positively Helping Fresh Squids
In keeping with the Squidoo Positivity Week theme I wanted to point out a recent comment posted at Squidu, from a discussion about Squidoo’s rating system, by new Giant Squid Lenmaster a_willow .
“For newbies, since I run Fresh Squid group I have a different approach – if I think their lenses are great, I rate them 5*. If there is something crucial missing (like intro or into picture) or they leave generic titles – I send them mail telling them what they need to improve before being excepted to group!
That’s a reason I ask Fresh Squids to enable ‘contact me’ button on their profile pages.
And why Fresh Squid FAQ lens exists!”
When we Giants help out the newest Squidoo lensmasters with positive comments that include helpful tips, and important Squid-do’s and Squid-don’t’s instead of just ignoring any blunders we see, we go a long way in improving the overall quality of Squidoo.com as a whole.
A positive critique would include a comment about what the new lensmaster is doing right, in addition to a tip from you about how they might improve their lens.
Stop by Places in Croatia UNESCO Marked as World Heritage to thank a_willow for working so hard to help improve our favorite site then go visit some of Squidoo’s newest lensmasters and pay the positivity forward.
