    Lightbulb MSN is a Nightmare

    Hello,
    I open this thread to discuss about MSN search engine, the only one that is very bad for us all with and without vBSEO.
    All comment are appreciated to seek together an optimal solution for indexing forums like on Google and Yahoo.

    i've never had a problem with MSN. they are easy to rank well on in my opinion. I still don't get more than 1% of my traffic from them though, so i pretty much ignore them

    Uh... that was a bit greek to me. The index page is a CMPS page, which points to the forum and the other places on my site. Is that what you meant?

    XHTML Validity checker - [Invalid] Markup Validation of http://basicroleplaying.com/ - W3C Markup Validator

    I asked because I recall seeing something somewhere that MSN showed preference to valid sites more so than the other SEs do. Regardless, being valid is a good thing.
