WebPosition Gold Reviews:

"Don't waste money on 'services' that 'register' your site with search
engines. Instead, make your own submissions with a program like
WebPosition (www.webposition.com) from FirstPlace Software Inc."
--Newsweek, April 5th, 1999.
Industry Standard WebPosition Gold Keeps Getting Better and Better
"If you were to look in the toolboxes of professional search engine optimizers, Web masters, and Web site owners from around the world, what one software program would appear as a staple in virtually every arsenal? WebPosition Gold. Those of us in the industry have watched its beginnings as WebPosition Analyzer and stayed by its side up to its present power-packed form, WebPosition Gold Version 1.60. In fact, WebPosition has been a household name since "search engine optimization" first became an industry!

"At this point, the most probable question from the Web builder crowd is, 'Does it really work?' ...the result was that not only did it work, but it achieved better results than I had expected early on....In summary WebPosition Gold is a good tool that should be in any serious Web builder’s toolbox. It offers all the search engine tools you are ever likely to require for maximising the potential of your site’s pages, at an amazing price."

"You can submit your site for free to the search engines, but getting
your site to appear in the first page of search results has become
something of a black art. Meta tags, keyword density, and doorway
pages are some of the buzzwords that experts in search engine
optimization glibly toss about. And doing it wrong can get your site
banned from a search engine.
I use and highly recommend the WebPosition GOLD software. It really
takes the mystery out of optimizing and submitting your site to the
search engines. WP Gold will help you optimize your pages to rank in
the top 10, automatically submits your site to the most important
engines, and can track and report your positions and traffic.
You can download and try WP Gold for free. I have no financial
interest in the company, and I'm not working on commission. I just
happen to love this program, and I don't know of anything that comes
close.

"... if you're managing a large site, or a number of sites, or you simply intend to win this war with your competitors now and forever, then you'd be well-advised to invest in software that can significantly reduce the tedium of the process when it's done on a large scale. One useful tool for streamlining this process is FirstPlace Software's WebPosition Gold (www.webposition.com). FirstPlace Software also publishes a free monthly e-newsletter that discusses the techniques used as well as the ever-changing landscape of site marketing and promotion."

Search Engine Watch:
"The clear leader in the perfect page numbers game is WebPosition. In
mid-1998, the rank checking software was upgraded to incorporate doorway
page building tools...."
"To me, the real genius to WebPosition is that it walks you through the
process of building doorway pages from scratch..."
"Aside from the aforementioned doorway page building and critiquing
components, WebPosition offers an outstanding position checking feature
plus can also submit pages you've generated with the program or which
already exist on your site. Don't overlook the extensive help files for
both the program and its Page Critic component. They contain extremely
useful information."

"When an application is as highly touted as WebPosition, one suspects that it might be good, but not necessarily easy to use. This software, however, is a cut above the crowd in two ways: ease of use and powerful functionality. Anyone with even a little computer experience can be using WebPosition in a few minutes..."
