Visual search software producer Groxis has announced the release of
the newest version of their software, Grokker
2.1, which features Google's API. Freely available to all Grokker
2.1 customers, the Google plug-in provides Groxis' customers with
visual access to Google's search results.
Google is the first search engine to make use of Groxis' information
retrieval framework. The new framework in 2.1 requires highly relevant
search results in order to produce the best visual search maps with
Grokker. Essentially, Grokker users will be able to view Google's
results in Grokker's visual map format.
R.J. Pittman, CEO and co-founder of Groxis, said, "our mission is
to make information and search results easier to use. The problem
is not at all with search engines per se; it is with the tools we
use to access them. Google does an outstanding job of finding the
world's information, and retrieving highly relevant search results." |
Groxis
developed a special plug-in that enables users to view the Google
search results in prominently designated Google-specific Grokker visual
maps.

Google's legally enforced "quiet period," a result of their IPO filing,
may have stifled news of a purchase search engine leader Google has
made.
According to the SacrmentoBee, Google has acquired the rights to Ignite
Logic, a web based company that provides web templates for law firms
and other small businesses. The sale comes on the heels of the company
being unsuccessful in raising enough capital to complete its start-up.
A quote from John
Battelle sheds light on the strategy behind Google's choice of
Ignite Logic for purchase purposes: "But why buy them? Hey, if you
have good tech and processes to get a law firm's site up and running,
one might imagine it just might scale to the entire SMB market (and
beyond)."

Content management-generated web pages are often absent from search
engine results pages. A number of pages that are created in automated
format lack certain attributes that play large roles in search engine
rankings.
A partnership announced today between Hot Banana Software and SitePosition
looks to do away with search engine trouble related to CMS. SitePosition,
a professional search marketing agency is partnering up with Hot Banana
Software to market a content management system, also called Hot Banana,
designed with search engine optimization in mind.
Hot Banana eliminates barriers to search engine optimization, search
engine indexing, and the development of organic search performance
that are found in pages done in CMS format. These websites have previously
been inaccessible to search engine spiders, due to dynamic or database-driven
content, and can now easily be crawled to access all publicly-available
web content, no matter how deep.
"We've performed our due diligence and market research on all the
Web Content Management Solutions currently available on the market
and we're convinced that Hot Banana is the most comprehensive, search
engine-friendly product available," said Brendan Kerin, President
and CEO, SitePosition Search Marketing Agency.
Speaking of the partnership, Krista Lariviere, President of Hot Banana
Software Inc., said "[SitePosition's] search engine marketing skills
are the best we've come across, and they've quickly grasped all the
unique and powerful search engine marketing capabilities of Hot Banana."

| Danger:
don't do this or you'll have your PR reduced |
My site dropped 1 point in PR the day I used
TrafficG for Website Promotion!
Could it be that Google, not only doesn’t take into account
the links from that site but also depromotes your PR from
doing that?
(When I do a search on Google for ZapFuture, the links from
TrafficG don’t show up, but on Yahoo they do)
