For the last month or so I have noticed that the natural search keyword report in Omniture Sitecatalyst is inaccurate. The issue appears across all of our websites and appears to be related to Live.com, now Bing. This issue has continued even after the launch of Bing.

Omniture is reporting high amounts of searches for 1 word search phrases that we do not even rank for (example: "center") or are even associated with our industry. When I break it down by engine, they are all coming from live.com. Has anyone else seen this?

That is not omniture. Microsoft does this to test for spammers. Many people see this.

? I definitely don't see it.

How can it be filtered out, with Omniture?

What do you mean "test for spammers"?

You can filter it out by simply filtering out any keywords you see like this in your natural search report using the filter box in the top right of SiteCatalyst.
