Default Regarding Daily Updating

I have been using google sitemaps for my sites for about 2 months now. I wasn't sure if it would make a difference to them. However I have begun to redesign my main web site. www.4iautos.com and the reason for it is. I used to have about a 1000 web pages listed on google. Now I have 22,500 pages listed. Meta tags are a big part of daily updating with searchengines.
I get MSN to update web pages Daily with all three of my web sites.
www.4iautos.com
www.4iautos.ca
www.4iautos.co.uk
Look at the meta tags you have on the web page.
Here are your tags on http://www.heritagehonda.net/

<title>Baltimore, MD Area Car Dealer Heritage Honda Parkville</title>
<meta name="keywords" content="heritage honda, parkville, baltimore, maryland, md, used car sales and financing, auto maintenance and service, new honda sales, accord, civic, cr-v, element, insight, odyssey, pilot, ridgeline, s2000 roadster, hybrid sedan">
<meta name="description" content="Heritage Honda is a Dealer with locations in Baltimore, Maryland and with a dedicated Service Center in Towson. New and Used, Civic, Accord, Odyssey, CRV, Element and Ridgeline.">
<meta name="distribution" content="Global">
<meta name="author" content="www.heritagehonda.net">
<link media="screen" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/Styles/Theme_0012/Variation_0001/Screen.css">
<link media="print" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/Styles/Print.css">
<script type="text/javascript" src="/Scripts/wmxScriptLoader.js"></script>
</head>

The problem with this one is you do not tell the Search Engines to visit the site daily for new content on this web site.

Second Web Site.
<title>Baltimore, MD Area Car Dealer - Heritage Honda Parkville</title>
<meta name="keywords" content="heritage honda, parkville, baltimore, maryland, md, used car sales and financing, auto maintenance and service, new honda sales, accord, civic, cr-v, element, insight, odyssey, pilot, ridgeline, s2000 roadster, hybrid sedan">
<meta name="description" content="Heritage Honda is a Dealer with locations in Baltimore, Maryland and with a dedicated Service Center in Towson. New and Used, Civic, Accord, Odyssey, CRV, Element and Ridgeline.">
<meta name="distribution" content="Global">
<meta name="author" content="www.heritagehondabaltimore.com">
<link media="screen" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/Styles/Theme_0092/Variation_0001/Screen.css">
<link media="print" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/Styles/Print.css">
<script type="text/javascript" src="/Scripts/wmxScriptLoader.js"></script>
</head>

Which is the same as the first web site.

You have to let the searchengines know that content is changing daily.
In which case on this web site it does not change daily. A simple trick would be to put some daily news onto the web page to show new content on the page daily.
