SEO Elite Software Review

Posted by Val Reynolds on 28 Jul 2007 | Tagged as: Product Reviews, Software Reviews

SEO Elite is a search engine optimization software product designed to get user?s websites to the top of the search engines. Unlike most SEO tools, SEO

Elite appears to be created for the average webmaster. The interface is very straightforward and built with a sort of ?wizard-like? appearance.

There are 8 main project types within SEO Elite. Each project type represents an entirely new software product. So, essentially SEO Elite includes 8 software programs, all rolled into 1. The project types are as follows:

1. Analyze backlinks using a specified search engine
2. Get links to your website
3. Analyze allinanchor, allintitle, and allintext
4. Verify that link partners are still linking back
5. Find where your website is ranked in the search engines
6. Find how many pages are indexed
7. Find possible authority websites
8. Submit your article to article directories

For the most part, each project type is self-explanatory, but I will do my best to briefly explain each project type in our review below:

Project 1 review: Analyze backlinks using a specified search engine

The purpose of this project is to spy on your competition in order to see who is linking to them and exactly how they?re doing it. The theory here is that the search engines rank websites based primarily on the quality and quantity of sites linking the particular site in question. If the website has more quality links than another site, it will rank higher. With this SEO Elite project, you can quickly see who is linking to whatever site you enter into the software.

Project 2 review: Get links to your website

The purpose of this project is to do just that? Get links to your website. In order to rank higher in the search engines, you need websites to link to you. This project allows you to find quality websites and gathers their contact information, and then allows you to contact them from directly within the software? cutting down on the time it takes you to contact the potential link partner.

Project 3 review: Analyze allinanchor, allintext, and allintitle

This project type allows you to compare, side by side, the regular search results for a given keyword, as compared to Google?s advanced search criteria.

Project 4 review: Monitor whether link partners are still linking back

This project type allows you to input a links page on your website and SEO Elite will then visit each link partner on that page and will tell you whether or not they are still linking back to your site. We?ve found that many times link partners will just remove your link without you knowing.

Project 5 review: Monitor where your site is ranked in the SE?s

This project is a neat one in that it allows you to see where your site ranks for as many different keyword phrases as you want. SEO Elite also gives you a very nice little graph that visually shows rises and drops in ranking.

Project 6 review: Find out how many pages are indexed

You can input either your website or a competitor?s website and see how many of the website?s pages have been indexed by all of the major search engines. You can also see which pages, and the PR and Alexa rank of those pages.

Project 7 review: Find possible authority websites

I personally like this project type the most. You can input a keyword and SEO Elite will compare all of the top ranked website?s links and will tell you which are ?common links? between all of the websites. Those common links are potential authority websites and ones that you should approach for a link exchange of some sort. A link from those sites will help your ranking the most.

Project 8 review: Submit your article to article directories

There are entire software applications that do nothing but submit your articles to article directories. What?s cool about this project type is that it?s essentially a $100+ program al rolled into 1 project type. There are roughly 50 article directories within SEO Elite and this project type steps you through submitting to the directories in a very straightforward, easy way.

To conclude our review of SEO Elite, I would say that it is a solid program that was easy to use. There was a manual that came with this software, as well as many tutorial videos? but to be honest, the software was so straightforward, we found ourselves not really needing to read any help guides etc. SEO Elite gets two thumbs up.

Give a Gourmet Wine Basket

Posted by Val Reynolds on 23 Jul 2007 | Tagged as: Product Reviews, Software Reviews

A gourmet wine basket just might be the perfect gift. It is a “one size fits all” choice for friends, family, colleagues and discerning clients alike.

Wines are considered to be “gourmet” when they are created by a highly-respected winery. Anyone who has acquainted themselves with gourmet foods can expect to find the same personal satisfaction from a bottle of carefully-chosen gourmet wine.

Depending on where you live, you can choose from a variety of gourmet wine baskets. In the United States, these commonly feature those with California wines. Winter time brings about holiday wine baskets. Gourmet wine and cheese baskets are available all year. The distinctive flavors of gourmet wines are perfect for sharing good cheer.

Country Gourmet Wine Basket

A well-thought gourmet wine basket will contain items that complement the bottle. In summer, a country gourmet wine basket is a great choice for picnics and get-togethers. The country gourmet wine basket is loaded with delicacies. The featured wine will be paired by delicious breads such as sesame pepper crostini, as well as cheeses, nuts and even mustard. This type of gift is suitable to all types of wine drinkers. They will appreciate the wine itself, and will be duly impressed by the carefully chosen food pairings.

Although many shops provide a selection of ready-made gourmet wine baskets, you can easily design and assemble your own customized gift basket. The first item that you select should always be a fine bottle of wine. Choose either white or red, depending upon the taste of the recipient. A sparkling wine is a nice touch for a special occasion. Once you’ve chosen the wine, begin to select complimentary items. Gourmet cheese and crackers are natural choices. Dried fruits and packaged cheese spreads can also be used. Try to find varieties of cheese that are from the same country or region as the wine.

A picnic basket is a fun way to present your fine wine and gourmet foods. Choose your wine and foods, and then add some additional items. Wineglasses, a corkscrew and cheese knife are thoughtful items. Select everything that you’d like to include with your gift, and then find a pretty picnic basket. For the perfect presentation, tie it all up in a pretty ribbon.

A Gourmet Wine Basket for Your Love

There is no hard and fast rule that you can have only edible items in a gourmet wine gift basket; you can include the items of intimacy in it as well. You can add his favorite brand of cigars in the basket along with foods and wine. If he is golf player, try to include golf balls in a box, some nutritional bars and a bag of tees. If you are going to design the gourmet wine basket for a women, say your spouse, you could toss in a box of bath items or fragrances.

You can easily pick out the small items from the stores where they have been prepackaged. Just put everything in a basket and wrap it with ribbon or flower bouquet.

Celebrate the special friendships in your life with gourmet wine baskets. You can even do this if your friends live on the other side of the world. Many gift shops, wineries and online shipping services offer mail order gift giving. Be sure to check with the national, state or provincial laws before sending your gift. There are some countries and areas where importing or shipping alcohol is illegal, so always check before you send your gourmet wine basket.
