Banned from MSN

[Lilly]

I was wondering why our 7 year old website has no good SERPS at ALL on MSN but it does great on Google and Yahoo? site: CTABUK Edit Just wondering how we can fix that, if possible or what it is might be wrong ....


Ctabuk edit - Having checked the amount of spammed keywords and the nature of the site I very much doubt that it does well anywhere - so I am putting this down as a spam post and will PM the site owner.

Thanks for your private message. THIS IS NOT SPAM. You are wrong. Nobody is trying to be "clever". Our website does very well-- and has for 7 years now everywhere else. I'm not trying to fool anyone and I could care less about the links to our site, here. I don't see how anyone could help with our question if I didn't supply a link. It was a genuine question for something that we do not understand regarding MSN. Very unfair of you to jump to conclusions just because I ask a question about MSN.

Sorry - look - if I am wrong I will be the first one to apologise. But these keyword tags are yours and you say you are doing well on Google ! I don't see it.

MSN focuses heavily on on-site SEO factors. Maybe the spammy nature of the tags is why it is not rnkaing well there.

If you were a good psychic, you should have known these replies!

LOL

Sorry :-)

Hi, ctabuk! Keywords tag are too long. By the way if you use multiple keywords they covered single keywords and you don't need to double.

It was not my site - but the posters. Many thanks David

I just checked your homepage Truthful, Accurate Online Psychic Readings, Free Online Psychic Readings using only the keyword psychic.

My tips for MSN:

1. Don't repeat keywords in your title tag more than 1 time. In addition, it's best anyway to use your keyword phrase only 1 time in your title tag, because repetition in the title tag causes lower clickthrough rates.

2. With MSN don't use your keywords more than 1 times in the description tag. You use them 5 times.

3. Using "tiny text" on a page can be considered spamming. You are using size is 1. You should not use a font size under the default size of 2.

4. You are hidding text which is considered spamming. You are using text with foreground color near background color. Many engines consider utilizing the same or similar font color on the same or similar colored background to be spamming. Make sure that the font color differs from the background color by at least 10%.

5. Repetition of words can be considered spamming. You have repeated somewhere in your body 5 word(s). [o,Lilly,Truth,Work,Advertising]. Check your text carefully and make sure that you're not repeating words over and over again.

6. With MSN, your page should have a body text of less than 1150 words and more than 250. You have 1192 word(s).

7. MSN does index URLs containing ?'s. There's a URL somewhere on your page that contains a question mark, which used to present problems with getting that particular page spidered and indexed. The engine will spot the "?" and could stop indexing at that point. You may choose to include your dynamic pages URL on a site map, using text links to each of the dynamic URL's.

8. Place your JavaScript or other scripts in a separate file to avoid ranking problems. Does your JavaScript or other script appear at the top of the page? How long is it? How far down on the page do you have to go before finding the body text? JavaScript and other scripts can present ranking problems, because they push keyword-containing text toward the bottom of the page. Can you move the JavaScript to the bottom of the page or to a separate .js file?

9. You are using the OBJECT tag. If this tag is pushing your important keyword-containing body text further down on your page, you need to avoid using it.

Fix these issues on your homepage and on all other pages were you have the same problems, and then request a re-inclusion here Site Owner Help: Request that we reinclude your website in MSN Search results and sit back and wait. How long, only MSN can tell. But you can be sure that you should get back in without any problems.

Good luck.

Yeah, I am beginning to hate MSN. And when I say hate I mean loathe. And when I say loathe I mean that I really really.......oh forget it.

I gave some tips above, with the hope that you will stop hating or talking nasty about MSN. It is not their fault if your site is spammy or not optimized properly. OK?
