Keywords on MSN don't make sense

I've just launched my new site, about 1 month ago now. I took a hit on my ranking at first but slowly it's coming back. All except MSN when "Keyword" ranks 1 or 2 on Google and 2 or 3 on Yahoo MSN has it at 23!

It's caching the same page, what's happening?

can anyone help?

Though my site has no rank at google/yahoo(not exactly), it ranks No. 2 at MSN. So what i want tell you is there is no connection among these three search engines. Am i right?

MSN uses different algorithms to Google.

Statistically speaking, the difference between postion 3 and position 23 out of (say) 5 million matches is miniscule. This is one reason why SEO is such a dangerous game. But take comfort in being high on Google, and lower on MSN and not the other way around.

The odd thing is that before the redesign the site had good rnakings on all three engines. It's very frustrating.
