The Search Monitor, an online monitoring service that tracks competitive advertising activity on paid search, blogs, forums, news, and web sites, announces its release of geo-targeted monitoring. TSM now monitors 17 countries, 6 languages, and most major regions, states, and cities in each market.

Pittsburgh, PA September 9, 2008 – The Search Monitor (www.thesearchmonitor.com) (“TSM”), an online monitoring service that tracks competitive advertising activity on paid search, blogs, forums, news, and web sites, announces its release of geo-targeted monitoring. TSM now monitors 17 countries, 6 languages, and most major regions, states, and cities in each market.

Geo-targeted monitoring enables companies to watch their competition and affiliates, and to manage their reputation and brand use locally. With this launch, interactive agencies, marketers, affiliate managers, and compliance teams are able to monitor paid search, blogs, forums, news, and web sites around the world from a local point of view in countries including: USA, UK, Canada, Australia, Argentina, Chile, France, Germany, Italy, Belgium, Luxembourg, Mexico, Spain, the Netherlands, New Zealand, and many others. Monitoring can be conducted in English or in the language native to each country.

By gaining visibility into global search markets, companies will be able to overcome a key challenge in analyzing activity in their extended markets. Prior to the geo-targeting capabilities of TSM, an agency with clients worldwide could not effectively monitor locally targeted ads because its visibility was limited to its home base. TSM’s new capabilities provide the insights needed at the local level to protect brands and optimize search campaigns on locally.

The Search Monitor offers important information that can only be gained by careful 24×7 automated monitoring, and surfaces the information in 3 easy to use reporting sections:

1.    Competitor Monitor gives insights into competitive bidding strategies, competitor market share and visibility, ranking on sponsored search, ad copy strategies, and promotions like free shipping, trials, or sales.

2.    Trademark Monitor eases the tasks associated with reputation management by auto-detecting advertisers sponsoring branded keywords, use of trademarks and slogans in ad copy and display urls, and negative, positive, and neutral brand buzz on blogs, news, and web sites.

3.    Affiliate Monitor simplifies oversight of affiliate programs by auto-identification of affiliates using sponsored search to detect violations of rank requirements, keyword restrictions, ad copy requirements or restrictions, and landing page copy requirements or restrictions.

Search engine marketing has become a critical component for advertisers. According to the Search Engine Marketing Professional Organization (SEMPO), North American advertisers spent $12.2 billion on SEM in 2007 and that figure is estimated to more than double to reach $25.2 billion by 2011. The Search Monitor was developed to provide the tools necessary to optimize the sizable investments being made in this medium and to protect brands from competitive threats.

“Monitoring both globally and locally is critical in benchmarking competitor advertising strategies and for watching affiliate activities online,” says Shaun Martinec, a TSM founder. “Many affiliates will carefully craft their campaigns at the local level in order to take advantage of better priced keywords or to avoid merchant detection when they are not in compliance with affiliate program terms. We find that major brand marketers are often outbid by competitors and affiliates on top terms at the local level.”

About The Search Monitor

The Search Monitor is comprised of a team of SEM enthusiasts who uncovered a need in the market for external automated monitoring of competitive activities on paid search, web sites, blogs, social media, and press coverage. Automated monitoring greatly reduces the number of hours and effort required to manage affiliates and competitors infringing on brands and misrepresenting products across the web. Further, automated monitoring reveals competitive marketing strategies that enable advertisers to benchmark their own performance, optimize ad budgets, detect successful ad copy combinations, and receive advance awareness of special offers like free shipping and sales dominating their verticals. The Search Monitor is offered as a web based subscription service. To learn more please visit www.thesearchmonitor.com .

Empowering non-technical people to plan, develop, and market iPhone applications on the Apple App Store while reducing costs and eliminating errors.

New York, NY — iGiki announces the launch of iGiki Apps, an all-new service offering a collection of tools transforming the way the world creates iPhone applications. iGiki Apps empowers non-technical people to plan, develop, and market iPhone applications on the Apple App Store while reducing costs and eliminating errors. At launch iGiki Apps will offer 3 core products; the Apps Maps System, an iPhone Professionals Marketplace, and an iPhone Knowledge database. More information is available on http://igikiapps.com.

The primary product offering is Apps Maps, a creative environment to envision iPhone applications and create concepts. Non-technical people can quickly and simply create concepts, share them with others, and have professionals bring the concepts to life. Technical people can use Apps Maps to their advantage as well, by planning out applications before designing and coding. Simple to understand knowledge on iPhone applications is built right into Apps Maps.

Apps Maps includes hundreds of iPhone user interface and programming elements to allow in-depth concepts of iPhone applications (http://igikiapps.com) to be created. In addition elements can be uploaded from a user’s computer or from a website allowing for endless possibilities.

Apps Maps includes dozens of iPhone Native App templates, which are for applications distributed through the Apple App Store and iPhone Web App templates, which are for applications made available on a website.

Application concepts can be edited in Apps Maps. Concepts can also be posted to someone’s personal and secure Apps Maps Gallery on the web for sharing and working with colleagues, developers, or others. Concepts can be exported to an interactive PDF for storing or emailing, or used on the iGiki Apps iPhone Marketplace.

The iPhone Marketplace is the only online professional services marketplace devoted to iPhone application development. Concepts can be created in Apps Maps (http://igikiapps.com) and shown to dedicated iPhone professionals around the world to receive accurate quotes and work with them. Finding a qualified professional is quick and easy since their portfolio of iPhone work can be quickly and visually evaluated via iGiki App’s Visual View technology.

iPhone applications represent a tremendous opportunity. Succeeding in this fast moving market requires understanding about planning an app, developing it, and marketing it. iGiki Apps provides a database of knowledge in a non-technical fashion to help people succeed.

iGiki Apps comes from iGiki, a leader in iPhone applications. A little more than a year ago, iGiki drew the attention of the iPhone community when it announced the first third party iPhone applications. iGiki realized non-technical people were interested in offering iPhone applications but lacked the ability to effectively do so; with this in mind, it set out to make available a comprehensive set of tools to allow them to make an iPhone application regardless of technical ability, budget, or experience.

“At iGiki Apps, we want to help the people that have innovative ideas for iPhone applications but do not have the resources, knowledge, or budget to bring these ideas to reality,” said E. Rose of iGiki Apps. “We expect that our comprehensive set of tools including Apps Maps will empower and inspire these people to participate in the iPhone market.”

iGiki Apps will be launching in the summer of 2008. Pricing and availability information will be announced shortly, in addition to other yet-to-be revealed features of Apps Maps. For additional information on iGiki Apps and to be notified when it launches please visit http://igikiapps.com.

London, England — theprintspace has extended their groundbreaking ‘DIY’ photographic printing process to the web. theprintspace.com will be the first online service to incorporate an easy to use professional colour management process. The result – enabling accurate soft proofing of images by clients on their own systems using bespoke print profiles, meaning prints that are as accurate as possible – first time! The process is explained in easy-to-follow video tutorials filmed exclusively by theprintspace, making theprintspace.com the first specialist professional photographic printing lab to utilise the web 2.0 spirit of innovation to its full potential.

theprintspace originated as Europe’s first walk-in DIY professional photographic printing lab. Launched in October 2007 and based in Shoreditch, theprintspace occupies two floors of a 4000sq foot area comprising of exhibition space, for-hire retouching and scanning booths, and large format printers. Since its opening, theprintspace has enjoyed acclaim from both industry professionals and clients alike.

Theprintspace philosophy is to equip the customer with the knowledge and resources necessary to get creative with high-spec professional imaging equipment (www.theprintspace.com/help/Studio.aspx) – which would usually only be accessible by the staff of a pro-lab. Until now, it has been impossible for photographers to have such unbridled control over their images, with a full range of professional print types, from digital C-Type archival prints to Epson Giclees and CYMK proofs. No website has ever made color management so accurate, so professional and yet so accessible and easy to use. In presenting a web interface for its famous creative print process, theprintspace.com acts like a professional standard, fully colour-managed print studio on your desktop.

At theprintspace guidance is available at every stage; from online articles to face-to-face consultations from in-house colour management and print technicians. A key feature of the website is the colour management and profiling tutorials (www.theprintspace.com/Content/colourmanagement.aspx), which are available to stream (www.youtube.com/theprintspace) or download from the website. Offering step-by-step instructions on subjects ranging from monitor calibration to building colour profiles and soft-proofing at home, theprintspace.com will enable users at any level to learn more about colour management.

As well as Epson Giclee (inkjet) prints, theprintspace offer affordable digital C-Type prints (www.theprintspace.com/Content/printtypes.aspx), which are genuine wet lab prints exposed by a real photographic process. theprintspace’s digital C-type professional photographic prints are produced on a Chromira, which is a professional quality, colour-managed, high resolution print device producing exhibition quality archival prints suitable for the professional art market on Fuji Crystal Archive & Kodak Professional paper. The machine prints up to 30” wide, and up to 50 metres long. Alternatively, Epson (inkjet) prints are from the recently released 880 range using Epson’s new Vivid Magenta inkset, exclusive to the range. These ‘Giclee’ prints are printed on professional art papers, such as Hanhemuhle Photorag, Pearl, and Epson Gloss and Semi-gloss. The Epson prints up to 60” wide by 30 meters long.

A straightforward web ordering process allows clients to send disks to the lab or to upload digital files directly via a built-in secure file transfer system. Once received, print turnover is unparalleled. Instead of waiting days for digital prints, files can be transferred, printed, and returned within 72 hours. Theprintspace also offer an in-house mounting service, to exhibition standard on a choice of materials.

The team behind theprintspace.com are no strangers to the demands of the photographic industry, having run retouching and ‘prolab’ printing businesses in London for the past three years. In creating theprintspace, MD Stuart Waplington says, “We wanted to do something different, something that would empower photographers & creatives – really give them tools they need.”

As Dominic Apa, Public Relations Officer explains:

“theprintspace.com is very much a response for what we saw as a need for a democratisation of the top-level of digital printing. With more and more people becoming familiar with Photoshop and an increasing number of photographers even retouching their own work, people simply needed the ability to access the resources which until now had only been avaiable to a very select few. Just as we have made our colour profiles available for download, we have attempted with theprintspace.com to open up our systems to become platforms for user innovation. theprintspace is about enabling our clients to have full creative control over every aspect of their work, from start to finish, while providing guidance and assistance when it is appropriate.”

In January 2008, a revolutionary new website was launched that will forever change the biodiesel industry. Fillmore Fuels is the first biodiesel related auction website to hit the market. In today’s renewable fuel market, there is a great divide between the individual consumer or home-brewer and the large commercial businesses. Fillmore Fuels is leading the way in bridging that divide by not only establishing a marketplace for biodiesel related items to be bought and sold, but also by building a community where everyone can come together to share their knowledge and expertise.

Largo, FL March 20, 2008. Significant growth in the American biodiesel industry has left the door wide open for entrepreneurs to explore new ways to help shape the market. In January 2008, biodiesel enthusiast Wesley Fillmore launched Fillmore Fuels (www.fillmorefuels.com), the first community-driven biodiesel auction site. The website was designed to help both hobbyists and commercial producers quickly and easily buy and sell biodiesel fuel and related products and equipment. Thanks to its innovative business model, Fillmore Fuels is uniquely positioned to revolutionize the market by helping to: regulate regional pricing; maintain a high level of integrity between buyers and sellers of biodiesel; and facilitate the exchange of ideas in an evolving industry.

According to the Annual Energy Outlook released by the Energy Information Administration in 2007, consumption of biodiesel is expected to reach .4 billion gallons by 2030. Fillmore Fuels is the first on-line community dedicated to biodiesel fuel and related products, and the consumers, hobbyists and commercial producers interested in purchasing and selling them. This new auction site brings buyers and sellers together to engage in on-line commerce and to address pertinent issues related to the industry. Since gaining momentum, the renewable fuel industry has faced a number of critical issues, including regional pricing. By creating a dynamic environment in which buyers can find the products they need at prices they can afford, Fillmore Fuels hopes to help mitigate this problem. While the value of biodiesel fuel varies by region, consistent and competitive pricing is essential to the growth of the market.

“With profit margins at a minimum, the ability to resort to more affordable feedstock when available is priceless, and Fillmore Fuels provides this option,” says Wesley Fillmore, President. “In addition, it provides a means for local farmers, restaurants, and producers to sell their virgin vegetable oils or WVO to the highest bidder, thus increasing their profit margins and limiting the middle man and cost.”

Sellers who use the Fillmore Fuels website offer a variety of products and resources. The site is designed to easily facilitate the sale of feedstock, algae, fuel, processors, vehicles and more. Each product is accompanied by a detailed description, and potential buyers can ask sellers questions before placing their bids. To maintain the highest level of integrity in all transactions, buyers can rate and review sellers and their products, therefore holding sellers to a higher standard and further assisting buyers in their purchasing decisions. In addition to providing a mutually beneficial on-line marketplace for buyers and sellers, Fillmore Fuels is also one of the few websites where both hobbyists and commercial producers can network and share valuable resources and tips. Additionally, the website offers useful articles on a variety of topics including how to avoid scams and how to save time and money. There is no cost to join the Fillmore Fuels website.
