MSN Beta Algo Change??

Discussion in 'Bing' started by payoutwindow, Dec 12, 2004.

    Is it me or has MSN Beta recently changed their algo.

    One of my site, that was number 1 for a certain keyword is now not even in the top 50 ... bit its still indexed. :confused:

    Maybe its just one of those 1 day drops that occur in G from time to time as well.

    I noted the same, I was #2 for my keyword but have now disappeared. May main page doesn't seem to be indexed now but a deeper page is but for a more obscure keyword!!

    I am trying to stay positive ... my fingers are crossed ... hoping they are busy with an Update or something, maybe even preparing for go live! early in Jan 2005 and ofcourse .. that my site bounces back. :D

    What you are seeing I think has been already noted and that is a disappearance from a high position totally - in my case I have always come back.

    My guess - they have spidered more widely and deeply and with the bigger pool of info, rankings have changed.

    MSN BETA changes ranking very fast. My ranking changes 4-5 times a week. Although I had manage to stick at Top 10

    Same here. We were #1 for a very competitive keyword but now come up on page 5!!! Looks like MSN started deep crawling us on Friday and we disappeared right away. Then we appeard back as #1 but on Saturday we dropped to page 5. The search for our keyword was yielding more than 10Mil results but Saturday night it was showing only 1.8Mil. now its back to 10Mil but we still on page 5. Not very pleasant to see. I also noticed that our BLs, as reported by MSN, droped significantly. MSN was showing about 50000 BLs before and now only about 20000. I will update if our SERPs change again.

    I have a listing with MSN bCentral Directory and called to ask what was happening. I was told that with the launch of the new MSN Search, many changes were made to their search engine. I was told things would settle out soon.
