Fishin for MSN UK Serps?

Previously, MSN UK did not allow .coms to feature in the MSN UK search, whether or not they were UK hosted. That policy seems to have changed, since .coms, .nets, ecetera hosted in the UK, are featured in MSN SERPS.

However, instead of simply giving preference to sites hosted in the UK, MSN does not allow sites into the searches unless your site is either hosted in the UK, or is a .co.uk site (hosted in the UK).

What does this mean for webmasters? Well, if you want to have good search positions in UK based searches, you must host your site in the UK, and having a .co.uk domain hosted in the UK is even better.
