Where's My MSN Traffic?

September 15, 2006

Just yesterday, MSN launched its new "Live" version of its search engine and of course, put it on an obligatory .NET platform.

There's one main problem with the recent relaunch of MSN Live however. It's not passing referrer data as discussed over at SERoundtable. So what are the implications you ask? Try, you won't have a clue what your traffic is looking like coming from MSN for the foreseeable future.

The good news is MSN is utilizing a 302 temporary redirect which provides hope that MSN is still working on some stuff prior to implementing a 301 permanent redirect that will hopefully include referral data for logs.
