MSN not bring much traffic. As known that MSN + Live only have about 5% user compare to google which is 63%. By the way, your keyword is not popular keyword, the search volume is very less
that's true , I rank in first page of UK Yahoo for adult keyword which is the top ten searched keyword and still getting 80 to 150 visitor daily only Google is the main player all others is just minors
Well, msn drives some traffic if your on first two places (tested) But only if your keyword is damn competitive, not like yours mate If you were 1st for web design keyword, that would be a good job
Even if it is number one on the search people might not be searching the exact phrase and if they do they might not find your site useful.
I can say I do most of my searches on Yahoo, then Google only, in that order. I try to avoid feeding the google juggernaut as much as possible.
I didnt spend much time reading every replies but heres my opinion... your keyword in the first place had no demand on MSN hence no traffic.
first thing congrats for first place in msn, good but u need to check these keyword is competitive enough and second is try to get comp. keyword on top on google bcoz 90% people search google not msn.
They don't call Goog/Yhoo/MSN 'The Big Three' for nothin'. It's worth every effort to get BALANCED traffic from all of them. To think Google is the be-all end-all is to leave money laying on the table - and a table with only one leg at that.
i think ur keyword is not that searchable, 1st your 3rd keyword is a specific place. 2nd google is much popular than msn.
I agree with Jim4767 that your keyword is not competitive enough. It wouldn't be much of a difference if you ranked top for the same keyword.
Look from the way people search. "web design eastbourne"? Who is really searching for this? Nobody does. If you would be first on the keyword phrase "web design", I would understand your asking why is there no traffic. For your specified keyword people need to know the name of your company (eastbourne is the name I guess).
