Norton Antivirus 2010 Released

Saturday, 26 September 2009

Norton Antivirus have just released the 2010 edition of their software, which rolls years of virus protection expertise with anti-spyware protection.

Early reports are that that this release addresses some of the system hog complaints often leveled at antivirus and internet security packages. Antivirus programs do have the issue of needing to continuously run in the background without being noticed, and on a huge range of machines with different processors and RAM configurations. Some older PCs will always struggle with antivirus - get over it and buy a better machine.

Norton Antivirus 2009 had a significantly smaller footprint than it's predecessors which was broadly welcomed by users. The 2010 release shores up these gains with significantly increase scan speeds. The product is on the right track.

As far as virus detection goes, the new Quorum engine adds behavioral and reputational analysis making the protection as good as your going to get through a consumer product.

We'd love to hear experiences. Reviews as usual please.

IBP11.5 Released

Friday, 14 August 2009

IBP have just pushed out version 11.5. iBusinessPromoter (or is it Internet Business Promoter?) 11.5 is described by Axandra as a MAJOR improvement on previous incarnations, so let's take a look.

The significant area of development is in the Keyword Tool. It has been a trend over the last few years for SEO suites to focus their efforts on keyword selection since the likes of SEO Elite and Keyword Elite became so popular. The new keyword tool brings the product in line with the likes of Web CEO. Enter a keyword and IBP returns keyword suggestions, monthly searches on Google, number of search results and the KEI (keyword effectiveness index). All have been a feature of Web CEO for some time.

The new release can also handle keywords in 13 different languages - although I suspect the average user will just require 1 at most :)

Axandra have also released a new video on how to achieve top 10 rankings using IBP 11.5, enjoy:

Web CEO 8.0 released

Monday, 08 June 2009

Web CEO have moved from version 7.7 to 8.0 since my last review, so it's time to take the new features for a spin.

Along side a batch of small incremental improvements, such as improved project search and increased control over scheduling, are some larger rebuilds:

Keyword Search Tool

I'm a bit user of Web CEO's keyword tools. With version 8, data is now sources from Google themselves. The search seems to be more snappy and suggestions more relevant. And the big improvement is search frequency, which now reflects the figures produced by the Adword tools themselves.

Blog Submission

Not an area of the program I use often, but one which will come in useful to those with a new website to promote. Version 8 sees an expanded number of sites to submit your blogs to. The submission process has also been streamlined and is now less of a chore.

Link Partner Finder

Alongside a raft of small usability enhancements, the big one here is that pages with backlinks are now tracked. If those page are dropped by a major search engine you will be warned and can take action as appropriate.

The Full Package

Web CEO still stands out as the SEO suite to beat. Should users of 7.7 rush to upgrade? Yes - it's free so make sure you download the latest install files now. I'm not sure why Web CEO don't give an automatic option to upgrade from within the program itself, but until they do you'll need to download the files manually.
