Advanced Web Ranking in 2011 – A Happy Ending and A Fresh New Start

You’d think that with all the snow the new year started with, we’d be out skiing, having a snow ball fight or making snow men.

But no, we’re working like crazy and we love it!

That’s because we ended last year with bold plans for 2012, and we wouldn’t want to waste any minute but start making it happen.

So, while my colleagues developers are heating up the keyboards writing code, I thought it would be great to make a “wordy” recap of all the code they’ve been writing for the past year.

Check this out, it’s pretty awesome: Continue reading

How To Track Rankings For International Clients With Google Location

With so many ways to communicate in the age of Globalization, more and more SEO experts provide their services to customers overseas.

If, let` s say, you are based in San Francisco and you just found a potential customer with a local business in France, le Champs-Élysées will have to wait. All it takes is a few emails and some phone calls, and the new search engine marketing campaign is ready to start.

Sounds easy? Sure it does, but there`s a catch!

Search engines usually show different results for the same keyword, based on different locations.

For example, the Google results you will see from your San Francisco office will not be similar to those your customer will see from Paris. So, when she receives your first ranking report, it may not make much sense to her:

Luckily, there are two solutions to this problem:

  1. Change your location in browser using Google Location

How To Improve Your Company Workflow With Advanced Web Ranking Server

When Advanced Web Ranking was released, about 8 years ago, the application addressed mostly free lancers and small businesses in the industry of SEO. All you needed was one computer and an Internet connection, and you could very well do all the work from home.

In time these small businesses have grown into big SEO companies. The need for more resources grew as well. Fluffy slippers turned into elegant shoes and home desks turned into nice offices downtown. Soon, the need arose for managing search engine results across all the company` s clients and share all the Advanced Web Ranking projects  between users.

That is why we’ve built the Advanced Web Ranking Server,  which allows you to connect multiple AWR clients, installed on different machines, to a centralized database.

Co-workers get to share AWR projects

With the Server edition, co-workers have the ability to share the workload in Advanced Web Ranking and access each other` s projects.

The Fresh New Look of Advanced Web Ranking

Fresh, surprising, and finally out of the box!

We started the adventure about 6 months ago, with a Sunday afternoon discussion between old friends. As everything in the SEO world grows and changes continuously, we felt it was about time for good old AWR to change its looks and put on some new fancy clothes.

So we took our time and thoroughly analyzed the impact of major design changes on the application usability. In a few weeks, our idea became a viable project, challenging both for us and for our customers.  Designers, developers, testers and a nice coffee machine joined in a common effort to improve an already established seo software solution.

We always strive to give our customers what they’re looking for and make them happy with our products and service. This is why we took one step further today and started this blog.

The right person also needs to have the ability to write well and make things easier for you to understand.

That is why we decided to encourage multiple folks from our team to post and you should expect to see sometimes informal posting, but most of the time, comprehensive information and advanced tips and tricks.
