“There are 3 components to the suite:

  • SEO – The software will scan your web page, run library of best practices, monitor what’s happening with search engines, and offer analysis. But don’t expect any sketchy recommendations. It’s only white hat here, folks.
  • Paid Search – Yield offers automated bid management for the big three search engines: Google, Yahoo! and Microsoft. You can view all of your campaigns in a single place. The software also offers keyword optimization.

“The product is ideal for small to midsized businesses, said Derek Gordon, VP of marketing for Yield Software. ‘There are a lot of search marketing dollars sitting on the sidelines because people are intimidated by search marketing or afraid of the time or expense associated with it,’ he said, ’so we eliminate the jargon and make it easy to use.’”

“Yield’s software does away with a lot of the mythology and snake oil in the SEO community about what is important in raising the rank of a web page. The software analyzes each page and lists all the things that are done right and flags things that are missing, and spells out exactly what needs to be done. This alone is worth the monthly subscription price of $129.”

“For companies just getting a start, such as Yield Software Inc., Twitter also offers a cheap and direct marketing path. ‘It’s just absolutely critical to our business strategy,’ said Derek Gordon, vice president at San Mateo, California-based Yield. ‘When I started out in PR, it was all about mass communication. Now it’s very much one-to-one. It’s this intimate connection with people you seek to serve.’”
