Apparently, MSN’s search engine has been very busy indexing my site lately, and I’ve had a LOT of hits from users doing searches in the last few weeks. What’s strange is that the hits coming in to my site are for completely irrelevant keywords, and my site is showing up in the first 10 or 20 results. Searches for “old junkyards,” “Damages from lake effect snow,” and “WHITE BUNK BEDS” are taking people here, when I’m sure there are many more relevant sites than mine. If MSN really is trying to compete with Google, I think they’ve got a long way to go.
I don’t understand how pages like ours end up in top pages of search engines, especially when the topic is completely off-topic. But google is definitely not innocent of this, as I used to get a bunch of similar hits, mostly from them.
