    yes maybe....

    In terms of image searches, MSN beats google HANDS DOWN in terms of relevance.

    I'm starting to like live search better anyways, even starting to use it sometimes instead of google. They are spending a load of money but it is paying off.

    A single month doesn't mean much of anything.

    Right now, knock on wood, my sites are ranking pretty well in MSN. My experience with MSN is that they rank you well at 1st with new sites, then you drop, and if you keep optimizing and use good on page SEO with a link building campaign you'll pop back up in several months. Very similar to the Google sandbox, but once you are out, rankings vastly improve.

    The big difference I see is that MSN likes a little more on page optimization using some of the older methods like H1, H2, H3 tags, meta's, descriptions, etc. So no matter what others say about search engines not needing them (I think most refer to Google) plz just take the time and optimize these on your site if you want to rank well in MSN Live. They won't hurt you in Google as long as you don't resort to overstuffing.

    You're joking right? I find live search to be awful. To me, it's loaded with secondary pages that are poor quality, that is little or no content.

    Maybe it's a bias, but as much as I dislike G, I do find search results to be the best.
