Web CEO
SEO SPOT REVIEW
The current state of search engines is making it harder and harder on both
the casual and the professional SEO. Almost every month there is a huge
change in the way a search engine structures its results, be it from
algorithm changes or company mergers. Coincidently, this is also a time when
search engine traffic is more important than it has ever been before, a time
when your ranking can literally make or break your business.
Everyday people identify this problem and established that you need help.
SEO software suites are most certainly the answer to your question, and from
my experience with Web CEO, this software package could be the answer you
were looking for.
Web CEO is a complete set of tools to assist you in every step of the search
engine optimization process. This suite contains the following:
Keywords
Optimization
Submission
Ranking
Links
Auditor
Editor
Uploader
Hitlens
Monitoring
The purpose of many of the above tools are obvious by their name, but I
would like to take some time to emphasize on two of them: Optimization and
Hitlens.
The Optimization tool in Web CEO is most likely what 95% of the users jump
to first. This tool will scan your website and give you some
reccommendations on what to change so you can achieve better rankings on
search engines. While this is never a 100% solution (i.e. make these changes
and you will be guarunteed #1), it is extrodinarily usefull to guide you in
the right direction. This tool also has the ability to compare your site to
a competitor who is ranking better, allowing you to get an idea on what you
could do to be more like them with your optimization efforts, since what
they are doing is obviously having a positive impact on their rankings. This
tool is hands down the core of this product, and judging from the trials I
have used it for it gives very solid advice.
The Hitlens tool is the type of utility that you would not necessarily look
for, but once you use it you can't imagine you ever got along without it in
the past. Hitlens is an amazing method to track user behaviour on your site
without relying on log files. By adding a snippit of code to each page you
want to track, statistics about a user are captured and processed at Web
CEO's datacenter on every page load, while not having any adverse effect on
load times. This will allow you to track many, many things about how users
find and interact with your site. It easily supplies 60+ different reports,
so I can't go into listing each of them, but I think it is safe to say that
it will supply you with every statistic you will ever look for. Wondering
what keyword is best to bid on Overture? Hitlens will tell you how each
keyword converted on your site. Curious how a user navigates your site?
Hitlens will tell you the order they browsed your site before placing their
order. I can't stress enough how usefull this is.
Overall, I think Web CEO is the front runner of all the SEO suites available
today. They know their stuff and it shows in every aspect of this software
package. They offer a free version -- not time restricted demo -- to allow
you to use the software with your site so you can see how useful it really
is. There is absolutely no reason not to try this software at no cost, and I
believe you will find this to be the ultimate solution for all your SEO
needs.
Pros: Great usability, solid set of tools, gives good advice, fanstic
support team
Cons: Noticable delay (~12 hours) in support requests for US customers due
to time differences
OVERALL: 90%
