Update on Search Engine Optimization Tools

Some time ago, I reviewed both IBP and WebPositionGold. Between the two, I have tended to prefer WPG, since the release of the new version in 2004. Before that, I preferred IBP.

Does it sound like I'm waffling? I guess I am, but that tells me that these two companies continue to challenge each other to improve their software.

Recently, I've been using Internet Business Promoter more and more again. The feature I find most useful is the submission tools. In a short time, you can automatically submit your site to all of the major search engines that will accept automated submissions.

Additionally, you can do a semi-automatic submission to a large number of other search engines.

I'm also especially fond of the Directory Submitter in IBP, as well as the Special Interest Site Submitter. These are two more tools that will help you get lots of incoming links to your sites, many of them without the need for reciprocation.

IBP continues to publicize the fact there is a new version coming in 2005, which will be free to any customer who purchases the current version. This new version promises to be an exciting new competitor, with many new features that are described on the IBP sales site.

IBP is certainly very clean and straight-forward in its interface, and very easy to learn and use. That was one of the reasons I always preferred it in the first place. I'm hoping that the new version, with all of the new features, will retain a simple interface.
