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.

This means that people want to have their data reports delivered without going back in the application and requesting on and on for the information.

Have The Ranking Changes In a Second

Have you ever felt overwhelmed by the clutter of ranking data you have to read and analyze?

Have you ever wished someone else could do the rank tracking for you and just fill you up with the news?

Well, everybody has!

Because checking the search engine rankings is usually a task that requires a lot of patience and time.

There is too much data you have to read: tens of clients with hundreds of keywords and each of them with their own search engines. You do the math and see that spotting the information that you actually need becomes very difficult to do.

How to Set Up Filters Like a PRO

Math equationsI have talked in a previous post about custom reports in Advanced Web Ranking and, as I promised, I’m back with details on how to define custom filters.

So let’s get started!

As I said back then, Advanced Web Ranking is a software that allows you to process the data it gathers just the way you like it. But if you thought I was kidding, I can assure you that are about to change your mind.

Although Advanced Web Ranking comes with a list of default filters, you can also set your own rules to be followed when putting data into your reports. Continue reading

What if you could skip the daily routine and get right to the hot stuff?

Relaxation timeHave you ever had that feeling of time flying by and not being able to slow it down?

I bet you did.

In fact, I believe this is the most common problem in our lives.

There are so many things you need and want to do, but it is just not enough time. Sometimes you feel like reading a good book or watching a relaxing movie, or maybe just spend some time with your family and friends.

But there is so much work to be done. Sometimes the work you love, becomes a burden.

There is just not enough time…

This problem would be solved if you could find a way to be more effective in your work.

But only if you could find a way to remove all those unnecessary tasks you have daily and focus on the important things. Continue reading

Are you creating awesome reports?

Work would be wasted if you wouldn’t be able to synthesize it and put it all on one piece of paper. You wouldn’t be able to show it to someone else or have it available days, moths or years later.

But, thank God, you can build reports!

These reports generated by computer software can be usually exported to different kinds of file formats (and Advanced Web Ranking makes no exception, as it supports exporting to HTML, PDF, Excel, CSV, Text and XML file formats), you can print these files on paper or you can sent them by email to whoever you need to.

This would be just great if only these reports would always be the exact result of your hard work. But they don’t. There are too many times when you gather so much data and you work hard on it but you don’t have “That” magic report you need to send to your clients. All of the available reports are not compelling enough or just don’t have all the info you need for your clients. It’s frustrating because you can loose your clients for this.

If you do have these frustrations it means that you have not yet found these things about Advanced Web Ranking.

How “Place Search” affects the way you check rankings

Google has recently introduced Place Search, a new kind of local search to help users find their way around places easier and faster than before.

The new search results are marked with red pins, each result being unique and containing relevant information about the website and links to that website.

This information is grouped conveniently and makes easier for users to get comprehensive information about each result.

However, this has dramatically changed the way organic and local business results are displayed in the SERPs and the way you can check rankings.

How will Google Instant affect you?

Yesterday Google announced the launch of Google Instant to make search even faster. With the new Google Instant now launched a new search revolution is announced to start. This new feature was  brought up to make the search a better experience for the users and to decrease the average time spend on a search.

How does it help?

When typing a query it makes suggestions of terms that it guesses to be most likely for you to search and displays them in a drop down list. The one with most chances of being your match is also displayed in the search box as a grey sequence of your query and if you think it fits you just press Tab and it will automatically complete it for you.

The coolest thing about Google Instant is that as you type the query search results are already displayed below the suggestions drop down list. With every word you ad to your text the suggestions change and the results shown change too. This way you can get suggestions for the terms to search and see the results without making a click or pressing a key. And it will also be a lot easier to find a relevant results fast by only eye scanning the results as they change with your typing. Continue reading

How to track 50 000 keywords using AWR

Track Large Projects

Track Large Projects

We often receive feedback from our clients about tracking large number of websites with lots of keywords faster. But the speed of Advanced Web Ranking depends entirely on search engines. They use advanced systems to protect themselves from automatic queries, because they affect their bandwidth and processing power. From this reason there is no way to pass those systems without having your IP address temporarily banned.

To deal with this issue, Advanced Web Ranking uses “human emulation technology”, which makes the queries indistinguishable for search engines. In the same time using “human emulation technology” Advanced Web Ranking will not affect their bandwidth and processing power. This is because it adds a random delay between queries, so that your IP address will not get banned by search engines. Continue reading
