Like others I think of Live/MSN as gravy if I get traffic.

In my case they don't like any of my primary pages in their search results and use a page with information that I can't imagine they (or their bots) think would be more important.

MSN traffic for me is golden. I average about 10 pages per visitor, so I really engage their users. So what if I get 100 visits from google a day if I cannot engage that user with only 1 pageview and turn it into a potential customer.

Just what I see from my side and hope this helps!

10 pages per visitor is pretty good. Is there something you think you have done for MSN to index your site in comparison to any other search engine?

Can anyone point me to a quick link for msn indexing? While the numbers are small, in our business any door that leads to the site can have a potential client that may be beneficial.

You never know when some game changing little company gets bought by a company with a small 37B in spare change lying around. Better to fish in all ponds as one fish feeds many, and fish are now scarce:>) Sure G is still the one to focus on,but it does not take much to get them to map you and it only takes one client and I'll be very pleased.

Actually... from looking at one of my other sites the traffic coming in from a #2 placement on MSN is better then the #14 placement on Google for the same keyword.

In other words.. page 1 rules and the quote above is right on.....

I found something finally, but thanks dallas. I agree with Jerry, all things will shift and change,so riding one horse with exclusion of the others would I think be an imprudent strategy. With times like these, the sands of corporate brains leak out for newer and brighter opportunity. Someone is always looking for the kings chair.
