Msn search is not indexing for sometime , has a real small database of sites , can not rank sites any better than the other search engines.Microsoft does not give enough budget to msn search , it is only a part of the giant. And what we have; we have a section for it , we look our ranks on it , it gets a small market share that it does not deserve(It has to be more smaller). It is like a joke , but it is happening and taking our times.
Yea it sucks I have one page indexed. They should put a Billion into the search and it could be great they are rich why don't they just do it.
MSN search is weird. I have some sites it completely ignores, some it indexes a few pages, and i got a couple that msn just eats up ! The ones that MSN does love, it sends about 60% the traffic that google sends. Pretty random I guess..
Well it depends... in some days it's indexing like there's no tommorow, but in others it's quiet like a kitten.
I always wanted to start a thread like this because it is so true. I just happened to stumble in so I leave my mark.
I don't know how but all of my nonsense sites ranks real good on Msn (those were indexed before msn slowed down the indexing - bot activity) , I only used the old google tactics for them (title(real important) - meta -links) , Msn is a clone of old google but a crooked clone. Sorry Ms you have to work harder but you get more than you deserve.
My site is still lost in MSN after I had to do a 301 redirect on it almost a year ago. Somehow all the other SE's figured it out. I'd rate them a solid #4 after ask.com...
MSN does throw up some insignificant results when you search for certain terms. In terms of accuracy, it has miles to go before reaching Google's level. Yet certain regions do use MSN search a lot, so it is imperative that you rank well
