Tony, what have you done to tame MSN? I did the experiment again, and i went from nowhere to #7 on Chandler foreclosures. Pretty crazy to have that kind of manipulation. I think it just means that next week, I can be gone if they're that finicky. They definitely changed their algorithm, though.

yes, its good that Digg is working for you.

They used to give lot of importance to keywords in the domain name. I had some of my sites ranking based on that on MSN in early days of launch (within a week), without any SEO/Link building work.

yeap they are working on improving things on their end, they surely want to remain in business, atleast for couple of more years

After playing around with buzz, digg, and mixx, it looks like MSN is really susceptible to social bookmarks right now. Anyhow, even though I'm on page 1 for some key words, I have gotten very minimal traffic from them. I guess that wasn't really a surprise.

I digg my blog posts and I jumped up 3 or 4 spots on google for a few keyword phrases.

Beware of the digg effect though. Sometimes they will outrank you!

Hey whatever it takes in this market, if you can control MSN so be it. If your not spending much time to optimize that's great.
