MSN Spidering

Does anyone know the best way to get MSN to index every page within a site?

I've just added a new url to MSN and only the index page is spidered and listed. How long does it usually take to index the whole site?

Does anyone know of any sites like WebWurld which submit to several with guaranteed listings for a fee no doubt?

guaranteed listings

nobody can guaranteed listings in any search engine. best way to get listed, is get links from other sites on the world wide web and then the spiders will come.

I agree with Dan. If you get enough links from other sites then you generally won't have to submit your site to any search engines at all, they'll find you.

The other thing with MSN is, even when they spider a lot of a site, they only seem to be listing the pages nearest the home page.

I know a lot of affiliates sites that have 10,000s of pages listed in Google, but MSN doesn't seem to list more than 2,000 pages for any sites other than the likes of Amazon, BBC, etc - unless its just me not spotting them.

Just being checking some of my sites on MSN. They all have home page listed, but the last refresh dates vary some have not been revisited since end of Jan.
Also as Rich says MSN don't seem to list all your pages, although looking at some of my big sites, different pages have different cache dates, so I am hoping the MSN bot is trawling through the whole site.

As it is at the moment though most sites seem to have Sporadic pages listed, with no obvious patterns.

I use sitemaps on the front page and the sitemap link is on other pages too.

Does anyone know how I can get MSN bot to search my whole site?

EDIT Also noticed that Yahoo.co.uk have started listing only my home page on long established listed sites. Anyone else found this happening?
