Industry Leaders Join Forces to Create a Unique Software Program Designed to Offer Help in Optimizing Web Pages
Half Moon Bay, CA; November 27, 2000—The Academy of Web Specialists LLC, the leader in search engine optimization training programs, announced today that it has partnered with GR Software of Torino, Italy, to create a software program that offers specialized checks on Web pages in an effort to achieve higher search engine rankings. Users can run their Web pages through the Search Engine Optimizer (SEO) program, indicating which engine they’re targeting and which keyword phrase, and the program will offer a series of suggestions and checks aimed toward achieving higher rankings in the search engines.
“It’s almost impossible to keep up with changes in the search engine industry,” says Robin Nobles, Director of Training for the Academy. “Search Engine Optimizer remembers these changes so you don’t have to,” she explains. “It’s so easy to use that users can jump right in and learn what needs to be changed to achieve higher rankings and to keep out of trouble with the search engines.”
“If this program had existed before, I could have saved hours of time over the last 5 years in overseeing search engine optimization for my clients,” says Terry Plank, Director of Marketing for the Academy. “There are so many important elements to optimizing a page that it is easy to forget one or two. SEO keeps track and tells me when I forget!”
Roberto Grassi, President of GR Software and Technical Manager for the company, created the Search Engine Optimizer program, with the Academy of Web Specialists providing content specifics. The Academy is responsible for updating the program’s search engine checks file each month according to changes in the search engine industry, and purchasers of the software are entitled to a year’s update to that file. SEO offers 54 checks for 11 of the major search engines and was designed to serve as an extension to some of the popular search engine programs that offer a more limited number of checks. The program can be purchased through the Search Engine Optimizer Web site (http://www.se-optimizer.com) or through any of the Academy’s affiliates.
“We built this software in order to give our customers an up-to-date checker that will help their Web site promotion efforts. The program gives users detailed information about how to better optimize their Web site to get more traffic,” explains Grassi. “It has an integrated project manager that simplifies optimization efforts if users have more than one Web site to optimize. The program offers many handy features, such as an e-mail report, the ability to skip short words and check link popularity, and more.”
