Strange MSN Algo

Hi all,

I find this amusing if not strange. I am ranked in the top 5 for the keyword gift and the keyword baskets. That is awesome considering my site is only about 6 months old. But the odd thing is my site only ranks #19 for gift baskets. Figure that one out, considering the mentioned single keywords are much harder to rank for. The #1 for the keyword gift baskets has spammed the hell out of MSN with message board links.

Maybe you have lots of references to both those keywords within your site, but rarely are the two together, whereas some of those sites ranking higher may have them together. A bit hard to make any real comment without seeing your site.

Start getting more Incomming links with the Anchor Text "Gift Baskets", that should help.
