MSN After using data from 3rd party vendors, MSN recently launched its own data base driven search engine. Owned by Microsoft, MSN is currently ranked #3 for search volume but has the ability to take over the #1 slot.

Default MSN Keeps Changing Their Algorithm

It looks like MSN keeps changing their algorithm on a regular basis.

I’m not sure I disagree with their results for my favorite KW phrases but it would be nice if they would settle down a bit.

Can anyone tell me exactly how may algorithm changes they have had this year so far?

Thanks,

~VegasMack

Again the suggestion who cares comes to mind. The sad part is if you are going after MSN you will most certainly lose the war in google.

Without a doubt we get far more traffic from Google than we do MSN Mert. That being said I would NOT like to loose the income derived from MSN under any circumstances and would love to have as many leads come in from an additional 10 Search Engines just like it.

By all accounts MSN was the source of approximately 10-12% of my income for 2006 and while it isn’t much to some it is greatly appreciated by this poor boy from Missouri.

That’s my 2˘ and I would love to hear yours.

Exactly. I love traffic no matter where it comes from, search engines, link partners, whatever. If it sends me visitors who then contact me and are interested in Vegas property, than its a good thing.

MSN does not drive enough searches - ergo - less traffic.

Agreed.

However if we close only 10 transactions a year as a result of MSN it is very much worth paying attention to IMHO.

Just my 2˘ worth,

Exactly, some of you boys must not like the color green as much as I do, I can't get enough of it. I'll take it anyway I can get it and I'll take traffic from wherever it'll come from. If someone has the inside scoop to MSN I'd like to hear it.
