    My site is really new....less then 2 months old. I'm new to the whole SEO gig, but i've been working on it and learning a LOT from this place.

    anywayyyyyyyy, one keyword I was targeting was yoga information. On google, i don't even show up ANYWHERE on the radar. But i did a search tonight in msn.com for yoga information, and I rank number 9, so on the first page! I was so giddy i had to post. hubby is sleeping and wouldn't appreciate me waking up him to share lol

    so yeah, i'm happy, off to check some other keywords :D

    keep updating your BLs and page content... I noticed my rankings start to slip within days if you dont update on MSN.

    Keep up the great work!

    Just remember, don't rely on ANY search engine for traffic, because they can take it away just as quick as they gave you it!

    Now THAT is good advice...

    I used to think that Google was the center of the universe... until my site vanished from the seprs. However, MSN and Yahoo came to my rescue and my trafic loss wasn't so bad.

    MSN seems to be the easiest engine right now. Once you get a ranking there, you need to keep it, and start climbing up the other engines... and that is the hard part.

    To me there is nothing better than seeing my site rank higher than the site's of major corporations!

    Congrats! I went through that with my shopping site about a month ago when the new MSN was just coming online. Since then I've actually got a lot of good keywords ranking very high on MSN. Anyway, keep up the good work and don't worry about google. I thought it would take months to get in there, then on day about a week ago I discovered one of my key phrases went form nowhere to #1 in a day and it's still there! I actually took a screen shot of the SERP page and have it saved so I can prove it once it goes back to the sandbox.
