    MSN listings gone...

    Up until yesterday I was ranking very competitively for a lot of my keywords on the new beta MSN. Today I was checking around and my site has completely disappeared from their SERPs, much like it is in Google and Yahoo:(. I was doing a couple of things trying to figure out what has gone wrong, one of them being a “site:” search. I noticed that the index page URL listed is “www.inclaunch.com/?trackcode=bizcom” which it must have gotten from the Business.com directory (hence the bizcom part). I’m almost positive that up until today the index URL was listed properly, "www.inclaunch.com/", and adding the “?trackcode=bizcom” to the URL is responsible for my listings disappearing. Has anybody had any experience with this?

    I'm in exactly the same situation. Up until a few hours ago I was showing first page for all my kw. Now the results look very odd and I'm nowhere. Looks like old data. I guess we shouldn't complain as it is still in Beta mode.

    That post was from a while back. The next day I was back and better than ever.

    But I see what your talking about. The Beta results are very close to the live MSN results now. This has to be a temporary thing...I hope...

    I have found that it is changing regularly. One of our sites moves from 1st place to second page and anywhere in between. However, I do not agree that the results are similar to MSN's existing results.

    Yesterday, for about two hours, the beta MSN was showing the same results as the live MSN.
