    How do you know this? I looked all over the MSN search site and couldn't find any reference to an API?

    Agree Completely with the above hypothisis - They really have to start putting something better together....

    I love my rankings - but it's too good to be true......

    Anything which is between the <a> and </a> tags, i.e:

    <a href="http://www.yoursite.com">Anchor text here</a>

    The descriptions before and after this do not count as anchor text but might make the link more "relevant" ..... although I don't think it makes any difference.

    I do not have any success with MSN. Hardly if any traffic. I am wondering what I am doing wrong.

    You're probably trying to rank an actual domain instead of a .Blogspot domain :D

    If you haven't noticed, MSN is quite fond of .Blogspot domains

    MSN is fairly easy, it just gets harder when you have to rank high on all three ;)
