Legal Search Marketing

Andy Beal of the Search Engine lowdown has a good post today about the new MSN search engine and how many in the search engine community consider it a flop and "that MSN Search’s "marketing and attempts to connect just suck" and "my gut feeling is that they’ve blown it".

Andy Comments : Come off it! They only launched it a few weeks ago and they have 5 years of catching-up to do. I know for a fact that they are still working on refining the search engine and have efforts to reach out to the search marketing community. It may take a few months for them to gain traction, but don’t write them off in the first inning (remember the Red Sox vs the Yankees?).

I would agree with Andy here and I think so far that the MSN search engine is better then it was. I think it has a long ways to go to beat Google but I wouldnt count Microsoft out here at all.   

I think the results of the new search engine are better and I like a lot of the new features it has, not to mention that most all my sites are very well ranked!   I like the new feature at MSN where you can ask it a question, like "Who is the president?" or "What is the NRA?" and get the correct answer.   Google is still king but MSN and Yahoo are gaining.
