MSN is a superb search engine. The SERPs provide Fresh up to date results time after time. Great job.I absolutely love the the search engine!

The only down side to this search engine is that they currently dont have enough share of the market - latest report showing just 13% for MSN v 22% Yahoo and 47% Google.

I think if MSN can cut a few deals and feed other search engines with their results data rather than Yahoo or Googles they could up their market share and become a major player.

Advertising the engine alone will not be enough. It will help but some serious deals need to be done if you ask me.

Currently a crap position in Google can provide a webmaster with more hits to their website than a top one in MSN can. As the reports indicate, Google has at least four times MSNs current market share.

As i say, MSN is superb imo but it does need that extra market share to make the impact they want
