Inktomi/Looksmart

I have a few questions:
If my main index page is listed in Looksmart (this was not a paid submission) should I swap out the index page I paid to have listed in Inktomi to another page on my site? I ask this because my Ink listing is coming up with the Looksmart description anyway and it's buried in the search results.

Secondly, when I go to Looksmart and search my url to see what is included the results come up with a query at the bottom (after the Looksmart results) to see if I want to check results in Inktomi. When I do this I come up with nothing, yet I have quite a few paid pages in Inktomi. I'm not sure if this means anything at all, just checking.

Thanks,
Jill

I would stick with the same one Jill and see where it goes.
I am not sure of the the second one Jill. When I look, ours comes up on Mamma.com.

I paid $90 to Inktomi to list 5 URLS last week and $199 to Looksmart for 1 URL. The Looksmart editors seem to have given us our Whois organization name as a title for the socalled listing they gave us. How can one complain? The description was devoid of all keywords, like they were deliberately trying to hurt us. Now with Inktomi, I find that blossoms.com now has a listing on AOL for one URL and it appears that the listing is exactly what the Meta tags said. But I cannot get this listing when I search for any of the keyword combinations!? Its like I have the best keyword title ever but its somehow being penalized and I don't know why.

It appears your other domain name (name-name.com) is listed in two catagories with LS. Both having different discriptions - not a bad deal.

What kw's and/or kp's do you rank with for the above mentioned url??? Also, how do you now rank on MSN with that page?

Edited by me - Sorry, I'm living in the past - looks like aol and INK aren't buddies anymore....
