Blekko Launches the First Web Grepper

(PRWEB) September 14, 2011

blekko, the spam-fighting search engine, announced today the launch of Web Grepper, a new tool that allows users to go beyond keyword search to also look at coded information embedded in webpages. Web Grepper does this by grepping or searching lines of code within Web files to identify relevant or matching domains based on specific topics and search terms. In doing so, the tool gives users access this valuable data and furthers the companys goal of an open and transparent web.

The Web contains an incredible amount of data that keywords cant access: How many sites have Facebook Like or a Google Plus +1 button? How many sites have embedded Lady Gagas Born this Way music video? With Web Grepper, users gain insight into useful, and often unseen, data about websites including advertising, AdWords, back links, cookies, and more information that is embedded within the Web domains file. By enabling users to leverage this data, marketers and consumers who are concerned with transparency can access a truly unique competitive analysis tool based on the coded information in blekkos index.

With Web Grepper, were offering our users unique access to the blekko index and embedded information that cannot be found on other search engines, said Rich Skrenta, CEO of blekko, This allows users to uncover incredibly useful data that was previously inaccessible through a keyword search.

blekko users submit questions to Web Grepper that they would like to see grepped, and the blekko community then votes each day to determine which of these questions will be analyzed, and have the results ultimately showcased in a report. Marketers can also use Web Grepper as a market analysis tool to see the top results.

To ensure that the Web Grepper is not being used as a hacking tool to obtain personal and private information, blekko will be manually reviewing greps and monitoring for malicious data mining behavior, such as collecting credit cards or social security numbers.

blekko was founded in 2007 to pursue innovation in search. The company has raised $ 24 million since its founding in 2007 from US Venture Partners and CMEA Capital, as well as leading angel investors including Ron Conway, Mike Maples, Jeff Clavier, and Marc Andreessen. blekko has 25 employees, including former Google and Yahoo!

More recently, a study by ChannelAdvisor found that 92% of U.S. Internet users read product reviews and 89% of those respondents said the reviews influenced their purchase decision.

We are living in an age where first impressions are found online. People used to check the Yellow Pages for a job, a date, a pizza or a plumber, but now they check Google, says Todd William, Reputation Rhino founder and CEO.

mobileStorm Launches New Offering Aimed at Creating the Most Intelligent Communication Platform on the Planet

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) October 11, 2011

mobileStorm, Inc. (http://www.mobilestorm.com), a communication powerhouse according to the Ford Motor Company, announced today that it has officially released mobileStorm 5.0 (aka mS5), a new, cloud-based communication platform for healthcare payers and providers as well as marketers from a variety of industries.

mS5 has been several years in the making, says mobileStorm CEO & Founder Jared Reitzin. He continues, We have studied where digital communication has been headed for the past decade. Now with the computing power of the cloud, enormous amounts of behavioral data can be crunched in real time, resulting in powerful recommendations that can enable any-sized business to reach the right person, via the right channel, at the right time. mobileStorm is working hard to make intelligent communication a reality, and mS5 is the first step towards that goal. Our mission is to create the most intelligent communication platform on the planet.

mobileStorms offering represents the culmination of the companys extensive experience servicing the messaging needs of major brands such as Humana, New Balance, Ashley Furniture Homestore, and Kaiser Permanente.

Amazing User Experience

mobileStorm 5.0 focuses intensely on user experience. The system was designed with the Apple way of thinking that less is more. Designed to be a clear, simple, and easy-to-use tool for messaging, the cloud-based SaaS platform breaks the communication process down into three simple steps: plan, compose, and schedule. Front-end user experience technology such as HTML5 enables the drag and drop of many objects, screen slide transitions, and dynamic displays of data. An amazing user experience is incredibly valuable for the healthcare industry where typical enterprise software systems are bulky, ugly, and difficult to use. Mr. Reitzin continues, We want our healthcare partners spending more time on keeping their consumers healthy and less time trying to figure out how to create and send messages.

Integrated Communication

The first phase to achieving our mission of communication intelligence is to ensure our clients can communicate with their customers over multiple channels; and we needed to make sure that the channels were not in their own silos, says Mr. Reitzin. With mS5, adding another channel to a single campaign is as simple as clicking a new tab. Imagine being able to run an SMS poll alongside an email offer, and both messages are working together to influence your customers to act. We spent two months alone validating how to provide a multi-channel campaign experience in three steps.

Advanced Reporting

In the same way that multiple channels of communication have been integrated into a campaign creation experience, mobileStorm took an integrated approach to reporting. A client sending out an email and SMS campaign at the same time can view an integrated dashboard for detailed reports such as open and click-thru rates, message failures and reasons, complaints, and unsubscribe data. mobileStorms goal, Mr. Reitzin said, is to save our clients time and give them what they want--one screen with all of their important information in one place.

Additional Features:

mobileStorm 5.0 also supports campaign goal-setting, advanced audience segmentation, message personalization, social media integration with Facebook and Twitter, advanced list management, as well as tightened security and one-click customer service. For its enterprise healthcare customers, mobileStorm received its HIPAA compliance in June of this year.
