    Default My IDX Search is #1 on MSN for "Chicago Real Estate", lol.

    So I have a domain (http://www.chicagolandrealestatelistings.net/) that I use (masked) for one of my IDX interfaces and it turns out that currently if you search MSN or Live for "chicago real estate" it is the #1 site... I had to laugh. I'll take it! Although I'm sure it won't last it's been there for over a week.

    http://search.msn.com/results.aspx?q...go+real+estate

    I wish I could add a site meter to it...

    I see you have 0 body words on this page. I'm pretty sure MSN doesn't care about content - in fact, the less, the better - you see most of the top results with 100-200 words. Often pages that utilize frames heavily top out a lot of keywords because of this. When I started adding more content to my index on a couple of my sites, my rankings started to dive in MSN. I'm doing an experiment and removing those and some others and see if my rankings go up on a couple of my smaller websites.

    still there, have you seen any signs in google or yahoo? if not, you might see page in google within time, my wolfnet idx is currently #12 and #14 for search dallas mls. I masked idx map with searchdallasmls.com and left user log in page alone. Both are gaining a couple of positions every other day, maybe bec. of other supporting webs I've built around. currently have position #5,12,14,19 for Search Dallas MLS
