MSN Live Search : the spam search engine
MSN Live Search appears to be improving its algorithms to be less susceptible to spammy web sites but it still has a long ways to go. Spammy web sites seem to dominate the results especially blogs from free blog providers. It also appears as though inbound links can be of very low quality and Live Search will not discount them. Keyword rich URLs appear to continue to do very well in the search results as well as pages with little content on them or ones that are simply adsense sites. Hopefully, Microsoft will continue to work on their search algorithms and get rid of the spam to make this search engine more useable and compete with Google, if thats even possible.
