    Hey Moe,

    To me, Ezine seems to be more successful, but even then
    it's not the most successful. However, if you're really going
    to dive into the social aspect of building a Squidoo (like
    making friends, adding links, etc.) then Squidoo has it's
    perks.

    There are more successful methods, though, like
    Hubpages, Gather, and even Associated Content.

    Peace.

    Ezine is much better. It provides high quality content which Google loves.

    yeah i thought so. i've been using ezinearticles, and have actually got quite alot of articles to rank on the 1st page of google..but i came across an ebook recently which suggested that squidoo was better than ezine articles. But i think it was old, so I wanted to check...
    what's "gather"?
    thanks!

    Look at the Alexa results comparing Squidoo, EzineArticles, HubPages and Gather.

    Click here.

    While EzineArticles does get more visitors (according to Alexa) it's amazing the way they both have identical fluctuations for the last 3 months.

    Ezine gives better backlinks. Never had squidoo give me backlinks before.

    I say Ezine for two reasons: If you USE a well written article with good keywords from EA your page has a good chance of being front page. This has happened to several of my sites.

    When you submit your own articles with good keywords people will find, use and spread the word for you. Their site may come up first but ultimately the links in your article will get the clicks.
