Getting deep-crawled

Google and Yahoo show 10000 pages..MSN 500.

[madmatt69]

Any idea how to get deep crawled by MSN? My site has been around for about 3 years now and is well indexed by google and yahoo, each showing over 10,000 pages indexed. MSN on the other hand shows 500, and traffic is little.

Any idea how to determine if MSN is having trouble for whatever reason crawling the site, or just tips on getting crawled more? Is there a sitemap program like with google and yahoo?

Thanks for any help!

my site in the last 3 weeks has gone from 300 pages to 25 and lost its first place to no where.
My last cache crawl was 22 oct.
My only hope is that none of my competion has had any pages crawled since 2nd Of Nov either.
So yes I think there is a crawl issue, whilst they move over to Live or start a new Algo.
Check out your competiton sites and compare their crawl dates to yours. If none of them are recent I would guess there is a delay at the moment.

To be honest and slightly off topic I would already be very happy if they would not miss Homepages!

My website has also been online for 2 years and I have also lost all my top 5 page rankings for all of my keywords except one. I have not been crawled in over 3 weeks by MSN.

It appears to be the switch to Live Search and a change of Algo. I can just wait at this point since i am optimized as best i can.

try changing your options when you look at backlinks. msn recently implemented an option to condense links from the same domain. by default it's set to 2 (i think) you can turn off the feature and will see all of em
