My web site figures at number one spot on most search engines for its main search words, this includes Google.
However, there is no mention of it on any pages on MSN or Bing even though my site is 3 years old and has been submitted.
Any reason why this should be?

Are you blacklisted on them? Search for 'Bing blacklist checker' on Google and use the tools that come up.

To be of both, MSN and Bing is a rather curious thing though.

Just done a search on bing for my exact web address and it does come up so not likely to be banned. Will look at the black listed stuff but dont think thats the reason.
Its only by chance I did a search on the Bing site and then on MSN and was a bit amazed that I was not on any pages whatsoever.

If you've been using the same keywords to search for your website on Google and Bing, you should be wary.

Bing has been known to completely disregard some websites for keywords that Google ranks #1.

Surely that cant be right can it?
If it is, it cant just be because its #1 i google. Can it?

Do you care that much about bing? :)10% is quite a chunk of any ones percentage.
It not imperative but it is a mystery why none of my search terms bring me in even the top 20 pages of MSN. The same terms bring me to number one an all other search engines and a few other search terms within the top 6.
So what makes MSN so different in the way SEO works?
