It's my 100th post and so have decide it is time to explore the world of the other search engines!
I see yahoo is using google so thats out the window I'm doing great in AOL anyhow, so have decided to work on MSN for a bit.

First thing - for my keyword widgets on msn.co.uk I notice that I'am the first sponsered listing and the second unsponsered listing but on msn.com I'm no where to be seen why is this and how do I get up there on msn.com I presume they have alot more traffic than .co.uk

MSN uses 'Overture' for sponsored results
MSN UK uses Overture UK' for sponsored results

MSN also shows Looksmart above the Inktomi results
MSN UK shows both Looksmart UK AND Looksmart above the Inktomi results.

So.. if you need the traffic from MSN.com then use Overture for your bid-per-click or pay the ferryman at Looksmart.

Hope that helps
