MSN Dropped My Site
Submitted by mattm136 on Tue, 03/20/2007 - 00:58.
Hi everyone. MSN Live dropped my site. I worked my way up and got to the number one position. Stayed there for 2 weeks and my site dropped today.
I was looking at the help section and found this
"After your website has been indexed, it will stay in the index for 60 days. However, depending on your site ranking, your website may be removed from the index. "
Does this mean that I have to resubmit my site every 60 days?
Any thoughts on from the MSN guru's?
Thanks for your help

How old is your site?
Young sites get bounced in and out of the results quite a bit.

The site has been up approximately 5 months. Would this action be similar to the Google sandbox?
This is driving me nuts. I was making money and things were starting to go well and now this.
Thanks

Rob is right about young sites getting bounced. It happens all the time on Google like you pointed out. I don't know if this is the issue or not.
Is your site completely gone, or just not ranking? If it's dropped than it's a little easier to troubleshoot - if it's not ranking as well it's going to take a lot more work.
If the site was making money why not turn on some ppc traffic to replace the seo traffic?

The site seems to have been dropped. I type in "mydomainname.com" in the msn search bar and get "We did not find any results for".
If they get dropped all the time, do they get added back or should I resubmit to MSN.
I am looking in to PPC traffic and have been re-reading the info in HPAM and looking for more info on the web.
I am not giving up, I am more discourage than anything. The site was not making much ($110 over the last month), but its the first money I have made online.
Thanks for all your help

PS Any truth to the following
I have read that if you type in "allinanchor: your keywords" in Google and your site is listed, your site is in the sandbox and should be coming out on next update.
