MSN bug shows precursor to future drops in rankings
I have been watching MSN over the last month or so and have found quite a few bugs:
Same page being listed more than once, i.e. page 1 and page 2 or 3.
Pages about to be dropped due to an algo change NOT show a cached version. I first noticed this last week when one of my pages ranked #2 for the word "gift". Oddly enough when I checked MSN's cached version I recieved the "Requested document could not be found." When I went to page 3 the same page was listed again. Click the cache and the page pulls up. I double checked this 20 keywords or so, some had indented listings. I can tell you without a doubt every page which would not pull up in cache was dropped the day before yesterday. The pages where the cache did pull up the rankings remained.
In the end the ranking is based on cached version as MSN claims. This would make sense why the cache is not showing since the cache for ranking is not really ranking the page there and hence the message.
Thanks

Yeah... I've noticed the same thing. Wonder if they are going to do anything about it.
