It is widely believed that Microsoft search is lagging behind Google search by miles. To get seriously in to search engine business, the following are required at the minimum: 1. have an easy to use and simple domain name (right now it is search.msn.com, but it is too long) 2. have you search algo get robust (to avoid spam), and more relevant. 3. Have the systems reliable, and scalable. This is because, the search volume gets too high at times. The systems should be able to cope with peaks. Even now, I get something like "please try later" or "no results found". 4. Advertise on TVs, and other media. disclaimer: The above is in my opinion only!
