I've been ranking relatively well in a few well-established kws in msn. I do have dynamic content, so that's not a problem...but does past performance guarantee future performance, or is MSN still undergoing extensive changes?
I don't monitor near as much as google, but I've remained exceptionally well placed for sites/keywords. I've seen little difference on those sites that started off tops, and have seen improvement on some sites I've been trying to get closer to the top. MSN is a dream search engine for placement of my sites.
seriously. I'm beating well established sites with very little effort. (or pagerank!!!) I need to focus on the bigger keywords now.
I hear ya. My top keywords as well as smaller ones rank exceptionally well. That's why I don't focus on MSN a lot. Google is much more of a challenge.
Like Yahoo, MSN doesn't appear to be so discreet about where your IBL come from. Sig links work well, if you are a kind of person who posts a bunch in many forums. Link exchange with mediocre websites also seem to work well. Also MSN, if I get this right, is not really taking time into consideration, which is great for new websites. With regard to its index, it fluctuates a lot. You can observe steady change in Google and Yahoo, but MSN doesn't seem to make steady changes. For example, you double # of IBL since yesterday, but you will lose half of them tomorrow. Something like that happens pretty often. Maybe this is because MSN SE isn't that matured yet (I like TV ad though).
i've seen instances of msn showing backlinks for forum sigs that i just posted earlier in the day i like the tv ads too. also i've been seeing lots of adwords PPC ads for the new MSN search. we'll see what happens.
