Microsoft Live SERP Drop

I was ranking quite well in SERP for two of my websites in my signature in MSN Live for my targetted keywords. This last week I dropped from #1 position to about #18 for one site, and above 100 for the other.

Does anyone know what happened? This is real strange since I've been making substantial inroads in SERP for both Google and Yahoo.

 

maybe you already have too much backlink coz i also dropped from rank 1 to 20.

 

I don't think that's the problem. Having too many backlinks will never be a "sin"

 

Thanks guys for your comments. Anyone else with any ideas how I can get back my positions in MSN?

 

msn search have make some update on their engine I think. take this thread http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=502921

 

How old is the domain name? If it's brand new, you can expect erradic rankings.

Hey there,

I agree that having to many backlinks is never a sin.

However, you should be careful at the rate you get those backlinks.

I heard google keeps track of the rate to which you get backlinks, and may devalue your links if you increase your rate too fast.

Sincerely,

Good information, Thanks. Any ideas what's too fast for link building?

 

can i see your url? pm me.
its interesting as my url has jumped from page 5/6 to top of page 1???
so for me its great.
would like to see your url to compare the onpage seo and see how different it is? if any....

 

I think it would be favorable if you get active and relevant backlinks.
