Final we heard from your Reside Search staff, Microsoft;s plan of report was to provide an annual Drop update and an annual Spring update. The Spring update has started arriving slowly in pieces.On May 3, Microsoft refreshed its Reside QnA lookup features. On Could seven, Microsoft rolled out a refresh with the Live.com lookup web page.Is this the extent of what Microsoft;s anticipated spring Reside Lookup update,
Office Professional Plus 2010 Product Key, codenamed “Rome,” will provide?According to a Microsoft spokeswoman, there;s more to come on the Live Search spring update front:“Reside Lookup is on a Fall/Spring release cycle,
Office 2007 Enterprise Key, and we will steadily roll out updates at these intervals to improve the experience for both advertisers and consumers. The recent updates you;ve noticed are part with the latest release, and we will continue to test and implement various features and functionality over the next couple of weeks.”Supposedly, Microsoft will show off at its ad summit later this month improvements to vertical (shopping) lookup and search relevance. (Given Microsoft execs are claiming they;ve increased the size of the Live Search index four times in the final year,
Office Professional Product Key, one would hope relevance would get a boost.)It;s hard to know how much Microsoft;s Yahoo bid (and subsequent back-off) played into the seemingly slow trickle with the Rome update. Wasn;t Microsoft also looking at rebranding (yet again) Reside Search, as part of the Rome release? The Yahoo confusion no doubt led to postponement there, as effectively.“Yahoo would have given (Microsoft) ad inventory and lots of eyeballs,
microsoft office Home and Business, (plus) 30% of lookup queries total,” said one source who has been keeping close tabs on Microsoft;s Live technique and who requested anonymity. “Search is the best way to get ads out there that make money. Ads improve relevance,
office Home and Business 2010, when you have inventory. You need to improve relevance dramatically to get people to switch. (This) won;t happen with Rome.”
