A while back I was reporting issues with MSN on another SEO forum (http://www.webworkshop.net/seoforum/viewtopic.php?t=10775) and how they totally deindexed my site. I still have no idea why they did that, but as many other people had experienced the same thing over a 3-4 week period, I figured they were making changes before the "Live" engine was released.

For the last few weeks I have been keeping an eye on MSN, and it has a grand total of 35 pages indexed for the entire vilesilencer domain. I cannot understand why it has decided on so few pages, and I do not know of any methods to "shock" it into returning to index more.

Any ideas? As I said in my entry in the other forum. It's not exactly hurting my site, very few of my visits have ever come from MSN. It's just the principle of the thing. It's also a learning experience.

*** I've just taken a look through a couple of threads on Web Workshop, and I've realised my sitemap on info vilesilencer is, for want of a better word, stuffed! - Will make significant changes to that and see if that makes a difference ***

I've redone the sitemap, so that its not broken like it was. Hopefully if thats what MSN had the issue with it will be resolved.

it seems your site was completely dropped now from msn index when only your forum has 26,440 indexed in yahoo and 2,320 on Google. That's really strange. Maybe the problem in msn live that's yet quite experimental. I would stay and look.

There is a huge variation in pages indexed by mns live in this moment. I have read other threads about this subject. and my site passed from 69 pages yesterday to 389 now. Your site is back in index with a few pages now.
Never mind, I think it will be fixed in a few days;)
