MSN began in 1995 as a search engine for music and other websites. They have also been a company offering internet service to consumers. MSN is part of Microsoft and has been a dominating force on the internet since their launch. They are still not the leader Google is, but they do keep trying.
In 2005 MSN added to their services with Hotmail and have since updated the hotmail and live messenger options they have. What makes MSN’s history so varied is what they are about. They are Microsoft offering software in one section and in the other they are an email site and news site.
MSN is actually more about the news than Google. They offer a busy web page that entices consumers to find out the top stories in one fell swoop. MSN has also offered Symantec Corp. as a computer protection company. Symantec is Norton software to prevent spam and viruses.
MSN is not the search engine marketing site that Google is. They are meant more for consumer communities where you can stay in touch with friends and the news. Today they are definitely one of the top three search engines, but they are still behind Google’s success despite their updates.
