    This question could very well go for all search engines but since I am sick and tired of google and it's endless filters and well Yahoo is not easy either (for a newbie) I started to concenterate on MSN Search (search.msn.com) so it would be great if you could keep MSN in mind while helping out this poor guy :)

    How often should I update the content on my website? I read here and on other forums that people make a target of 2-5 updates per day in order to be noticed by search engines. How does MSN see a site with daily updates or weekly and so on? Any suggestions?

    Thanks and regards,
    Zee

    As long as you update consistantly, do it as often as possible. If you update every day for a month, the spiders will train themselves to come back often, but if you stop updating, they'll stop coming.

    I don't think that's true. I've seen sites that get updated twice a year and the googlebot visits more than once a week. The bot follows backlinks to your site, it doesn't just visit your site on a schedule.

    I think I answered this elsewhere but in general I would say 1 page of content per day. I think it was Matt Cutts who suggested this.

    Ok so when I update my site, a descriptive text from the most recently added article is shown on the main page and then the page where the whole article could be found. In this way, I update two pages of my site. Not just the articles but a couple of recently added URLs (my website is a directory of different finance related websites) are displayed in the main page and also added on the respective page. Is this a good strategy? Would this be considered as spam?

    Content is the King, and if you write informative, unique content you are sure to win your SEO battle! Write something that relates to your topic and take the caution of not copying it from other sites, and applying innovative ideas to persuade the visitors read your pages!

    Content is good, as is ties to other sites. All seem to help, but it seems like it isn't so consistent.
