    They use completely different algo's.

    Also do a search here on the "sandbox". Put the kettle on as there is a ton of reading to do ;)

    Never mind the kettle, get a case of wine and a pizza menu - you're going to be reading for a good few hours :D:D

    But first burn all rope and other suicide tools. You might get depressed.

    nah, confused is the first part ;)
    You don't start getting depressed until about the 6 month mark - wondering if the site will ever come out of the sandbox :D:D:D

    Google is much more difficult to get ranked highly compared to MSN, and Google takes much more time.

    MSN seems a lot more aggressive indexing regularly updated web pages. MSN is not targeted by fraudsters, scammers, and fly-by-nighters as much as Google because there is not as much traffic.

    If MSN delivered more traffic, it would be harder to keep a #1 position. Why? It is more valuable and therefore worth the time to try and get.
