HiSoftware Launches
<WebSite> Promotion Suite
Version 5.0 New ADA-Compliant
Software Optimizes Web Site Content for Higher Search Engine
Ranking, Provides Tools for Automatic Search Engine Submissions
and Results Tracking
Concord, NH July 30, 2001 –
Hiawatha Island Software Company, Inc. (HiSoftware) of Concord,
NH, today launched <WebSite> Promotion Suite™ version 5, a
professional software solution for improving website visibility,
increasing traffic and tracking results. Available as a
stand-alone or as an add-on for Microsoft FrontPage®, the
<Website> Promotion Suite helps optimize and verify web site
content for improved rankings in search engines, automatically
submits sites to multiple engines, and provides cross-engine
analysis of your site’s ranking and your competition.
The <Website> Promotion Suite now
features an ADA-compliant interface, which enables users of
assistive technology to utilize the software. The product’s new
open and extensible product architecture allows third party
software developers to create integrated add-ons to Hi-Visibility,
part of the Suite’s search engine submission tools. The free SDK
(Software Developer’s Kit) is available for free download at
http://www.hisoftware.com.
According to
Robert B. Yonaitis, founder and CEO of
HiSoftware, “HiSoftware continues to level the Web marketing
playing field. Now anyone, from individuals to large corporations,
including the estimated 54 million users of assistive technology,
can dramatically increase the visibility and traffic of their Web
sites. This release also provides a major marketing opportunity
for third party developers, enabling them to create search engine
packs for their own use or for resale.”
The
<WebSite> Promotion Suite is comprised of four award-winning
products. TagGen® 5.0 optimizes Web site content for higher search
engine ranking by adding intelligence, in the form of metatags, to
Web pages. TagGen enables you to create, customize and validate
metatags to provide search engines with more information on what
your site is about, resulting in consistently higher rankings.
This new version includes full support for XHTML.
Hi-Verify™ Version 5.0 verifies the relevancy and effectiveness of
your metadata, and provides feedback to ensure that you use the
appropriate tags, and whether you are making the most of them for
search engine positioning.
Hi-Visibility™ 5.0 allows you to automatically submit your Web
site to multiple search engines. It is the only software that also
provides immediate feedback from individual search engines that
your web pages have been received. With its new open and
Extensible architecture, Hi-Visibility now enables software
developers to create customer Search Engine submission packs as
integrated add-on applications for the software. Hi-Visibility
includes free, automatic Web updates for the search engines
automatically included in the software, and is the only software
that lets the user submit to any other engine not included in the
updates.
Hi-Position™ 5.0 allows you to automatically track your search
engine position, and your competition’s across multiple engines,
saving hours of research time. You can search for one or many
search terms, against one or many search engines in one session.
Hi-Position also reports who holds the top listings for each
search term entered, who is using your trademarks and how. This
version includes five times the number of Search Engines
previously available for querying. Hi-Position includes free,
automatic Web updates for the search engines automatically
included in the software.
