URL only listing on new site

Site indexed fully by Google but not MSN

[petehall]

We launched a unique site a couple of weeks ago.

MSN was definitely aware of the site before Google as it had a URL only listing after just a couple of days.

A couple of weeks later Google has now fully indexed the site whereas MSN still shows a URL only listing.

Is anyone aware of the current timeframes involved with initial indexing in MSN?

It might depend on how it coincides with an update, but I've been tracking the timeframe for a brand new site.

June 4-5 - bought domain, put just an index page up to get it set up on hosting, slowly added a few pages over the next couple of weeks. One IBL
June 15 - just the index page showing as indexed at MSN with a cache date of Jun 10
June 21 - MSN update
June 26th - some new pages put up
July 2 - traffic from MSN noticed, new pages now ranking

Has there been any bot activity by MSN on the site, and is there a cache date for the page?

Just managed to get another site into MSN in less time.

Looks like the content of the first site has been hijacked then. This really annoys me!
