hey ive started a new site www.home-loaninfo.com and im building backlinks and trying to get it ranked in msn wondering what some tips would be? is there a certain number of pages i need or should have? also would a RSS feed on my index keep all pages upto date when msn crawls it the feed should make it think its updated???
can anyone answer my part on RSS feeds also would a RSS feed on my index keep all pages upto date when msn crawls it the feed should make it think its updated???
I don't know much about RSS feeds but follow these few suggestions and you should rank in MSN. 1. Get links to your site with keywords in the anchor text. (Use you forum signature) 2. Make sure all your pages have static links pointing to them. 3. Put keywords in title tag (once), Meta description tag (once or twice), H1 (once), H2(once), H3 (once but you can have more than one H3 tag on your page), Body Content (don't KW stuff but write it for a person viewing the site and not a spider). Example: <h1>Page Title</h1> <h2>Page Sub-title</h2> Paragraph of content here <h3>Repeat important point of first paragraph</h3> Another paragraph of content here. <h3>Repeat important point of second paragraph or concluding statement.</h3> You could continue to follow this pattern if you have additional paragraphs. You may also choose to use an H3 tag after every other paragraph if you wish. Doing this seems to have helped me to rank nicely in MSN.
thanks for the info im now ranked, what are the best ways to increse my rank to slowly climb to number 1?
A continuous link building effort. Once you have plenty of links, don't stop getting more. You should be able to add new pages and see them rank within a few weeks. Feel free to look at my aquarium fish site and look at what I have done to rank in MSN. (Shameless self promotion)
Does anybody know whether one way links from lin farms like linkdash.com are useful with msn or not. they are ignored by google
ahh nice site and i see what you did, i was wondering if i added a blog to add articles daily will this help my site get a better ranking, would this count as a update to my site because the blog would be in a differnt diretory
If you add it and it is under the same URL then you fine and SEs seem to like Blogs. As for Link Farms. Bad Idea. I stay away from those.
Unfortunately they are not 'ignored' by Google - they can actually have a negative effect on your ranking. As for MSN, it seems to me that links matter much less than page content. I don't know if they weight against pages linked to from link farms, but it would seem to make sense to do so.
I am listed in MSN without even submitting my online store. I have 107 pages out of 3000 indexed. I am actually suprised by that!
I seem to struggle in all engines other than Yahoo -especially MSn despite getting almost hourly visits from their spider. Just done a big update to the site so I am hoping this will make a significant different
I have a similair thing , I see msn drop by frequently but still not indexed while google and yahoo have e in their top 5 under my keyword phrase.
update your site consistently! onpage optimization more than offpage optimization. use <h> <title> <meta> description/keywords <b> <alt> all those...
