FONT face=TahomaHello GC!/FONT

FONT face=TahomaOne of my websites was on the top page of MSN (Page 1,position #8 ) for an excellent keywordthat I was targetting and on Pagenumber2,#11 for another rather important keyword. My website position then dropped from the first page (of my main keyword) and went to page 2, pos. 17. Thesite keeps on fluctuating for my main keyword, however my secondary keyword's position is rather stable and stays on #11 which is ok. /FONT
FONT face=Tahoma/FONT
FONT face=TahomaI made some changes to mymeta, desc,keyword andtitle tags and added even more highly optimized text a couple of timesso that the rankings would improve. /FONT

FONT face=TahomaWhen I check the Cahed version of my website, it shows the snapshot it took on 7/8/2006. It's been days since I updated the title, meta, text, keyword etcafter the ranking droppedyet it's still showing the same keywords and title and everything in search results./FONT
FONT face=Tahoma/FONT
FONT face=TahomaMy question, how long does MSN take to update the index and notice any changes in a website? Any idea? /FONT
FONT face=Tahoma/FONT
FONT face=TahomaIf it's not updating the index or seeing any changes in my site then why did my rankings drop? If it is in fact updating the rankings of other websites then why is it ignoring my site? Why am I still seeing the old version? Any ideas? Any tips on how to get site updatedon Search.msn.com?/FONT

My question, how long does MSN take to update the index and notice any changes in a website?

It varies for different websites. If your content is updated often, the MSN bot will visit your site often to reindex. If your site is only updated seldomly, your site may take a while to be reindexed.

If it's not updating the index or seeing any changes in my site then why did my rankings drop?

The results could be dancing or competitors could be improving their search optimisation.

If it is in fact updating the rankings of other websites then why is it ignoring my site?

Maybe MSN's bot crawls their websites more often because their content is updated more often.

Why am I still seeing the old version?

Because the cache hasn't been updated yet.

Any tips on how to get site updated on Search.msn.com?

Wait.

Keep in mind that because the cache hasn't been updated, doesn't mean MSN's search bot hasn't noticed the differences. It could just be that competitors are getting stronger.

Thank you!!

I add content to my site in about 2-3 days. Is this good enough? Is it good enough or should I add new content daily?

MSNs indexing of my site has certainly reduced or at least slowed down.
