  240. <p>FreeFind.com ignites a new category of webmaster tool</p>
  241. <p>(Santa Cruz, CA) A new company, FreeFind.com, has introduced<br />
  242. webmasters worldwide to a popular new category of webmaster tool: the<br />
  243. remotely-hosted site search and navigation engine.</p>
  244. <p>Remotely-hosted tools are already an important part of the<br />
  245. architecture of the web but, as a group, have gone relatively<br />
  246. un-remarked by the industry press. Although some tools, like ad<br />
  247. servers (LinkExchange, Flycast, etc), have gotten specific notice,<br />
  248. the continuing trend towards remotely-hosted tools in general seems<br />
  249. to have been missed.</p>
  250. <p>This may change, though, with FreeFind.com's introduction of an<br />
  251. important new remotely-hosted tool that has already become a category<br />
  252. stand-out and is in use by millions of people browsing the web today.<br />
  253. This service allows webmasters to instantly add the site search and<br />
  254. navigation features that visitors find most important.</p>
  255. <p>These features are:<br />
  256.    1) Site Search - allows visitors to search all the pages of a<br />
  257.       site for the occurrence of a text string,<br />
  258.    2) Site Maps - allows visitors to see at a glance the overall<br />
  259.       structure of a site and go directly to the desired area, and<br />
  260.    3) What's New Page - allows visitors to quickly determine<br />
  261.       what changes have been made since their last visit (a must<br />
  262.       for repeat visitors).</p>
  263. <p>The FreeFind.com service is at the crest of a wave that is changing<br />
  264. the way web sites are constructed and delivered. By providing an<br />
  265. important service for free which may be automatically and<br />
  266. transparently accessed by any web site, FreeFind.com has eliminated<br />
  267. all of the obstacles to the webmaster, including time, money, and<br />
  268. server restrictions. Now just a few minutes of time is required to<br />
  269. implement advanced site navigation. Webmasters simply signup then<br />
  270. paste some HTML into their site.</p>
  271. <p>Why this is truly a breakthrough for webmasters can be illustrated by<br />
  272. comparing the old site search and navigation solution lifecycle with<br />
  273. FreeFind.com's new technology:<br />
  274. PHASE 1 - INITIAL INSTALLATION</p>
  275. <p>Step: Allocate Human Resources<br />
  276.    Old: Even for an experience webmaster, setting up site<br />
  277.         search & navigation can take a week or more.<br />
  278.    FreeFind: Nothing to do. Anyone can setup and use<br />
  279.              FreeFind.com, typically in less than 10 minutes.</p>
  280. <p>Step: Allocate Hardware<br />
  281.    Old: Allocate the servers to run the old site search engine,<br />
  282.         or buy new ones. Expand them as needed to handle the<br />
  283.         increased disk usage and load.<br />
  284.    FreeFind: Nothing to do. FreeFind.com uses its own servers.</p>
  285. <p>Step: License the Site Search Engine<br />
  286.    Old: Pay the vendor for a license, often costing thousands<br />
  287.         of dollars.<br />
  288.    FreeFind: Go to <a href="http://www.FreeFind.com/" title="http://www.FreeFind.com/">http://www.FreeFind.com/</a> and signup for<br />
  289.              free. It takes just a few seconds.</p>
  290. <p>Step: Install the Site Search Engine<br />
  291.    Old: Receive/download search engine. Install on your<br />
  292.         development system. Repeatedly configure and test till<br />
  293.         it works as you want. Read the manual. Once you have<br />
  294.         that figured out, determine strategy to upgrade your<br />
  295.         servers with a major new software component without<br />
  296.         a) risking data loss, or b) interrupting service. Be<br />
  297.         sure you can fall back from your upgrade if you need<br />
  298.         to, while still retaining your visitor's transactions.<br />
  299.         Backup servers. Implement strategy. Hope it works.<br />
  300.    FreeFind: Tell FreeFind.com to index your site, and how often<br />
  301.              (using a handy web page). Paste the HTML that you<br />
  302.              received when signing up into your site. You're<br />
  303.              now "live". Optionally customize the FreeFind.com<br />
  304.              results to look like your site (again using a<br />
  305.              simple web page).</p>
  306. <p>Step: Create Your Site's Site Map<br />
  307.    Old: Determine how the pages of your site are linked<br />
  308.         together, and how best to display a summary of them that<br />
  309.         will be clear to the user. Design and layout the page,<br />
  310.         then add it to your site.<br />
  311.    FreeFind: Nothing to do. FreeFind.com has already created<br />
  312.              three different types of site maps for your site.</p>
  313. <p>Step: Create Your Site's What's New page<br />
  314.    Old: Determine how to clearly display a summary of all<br />
  315.         changes to your site. Design and layout the page.<br />
  316.         Add all the changes that you've made in the past couple<br />
  317.         years (you've been keeping track, right?). Remember,<br />
  318.         every time you modify a page in your site, you'll also<br />
  319.         need to go and update this page.<br />
  320.    FreeFind: Nothing to do. FreeFind.com has already created<br />
  321.              a What's New page for your site.</p>
  322. <p>PHASE 2 - UPKEEP</p>
  323. <p>Step: After Every Change Made to Your Site<br />
  324.    Old: Review and update your Site Map. If you've made<br />
  325.         extensive changes, you may need to totally redesign<br />
  326.         it. Update your What's New Page to note each page that<br />
  327.         you've changed. Re-deploy both your new Site Map and<br />
  328.         new What's New Page.<br />
  329.    FreeFind: Nothing to do. Every time FreeFind.com re-indexes<br />
  330.              your site, it also re-generates the Site Map<br />
  331.              and What's New Page.</p>
  332. <p>Step: Administer the Site Search Engine<br />
  333.    Old: Grab the manual to look up what those switches meant.<br />
  334.         On your developement system, re-configure the test<br />
  335.         search installation, modifying the shell files that you<br />
  336.         wrote in the previous step as needed, and see if it<br />
  337.         works. When you get it to work as you want, apply<br />
  338.         to your online servers.<br />
  339.    FreeFind: Go to the FreeFind Control Center<br />
  340.              (<a href="http://www.FreeFind.com/control.html" title="http://www.FreeFind.com/control.html">http://www.FreeFind.com/control.html</a>) and use<br />
  341.              handy Wizards to run reports, schedule automatic<br />
  342.              re-indexing, or change the look of your<br />
  343.              search results.</p>
  344. <p>PHASE 3 - UPGRADING THE SOFTWARE</p>
  345. <p>Step: Update the Site Search and Navigation Engine<br />
  346.    Old: Purchase a license for the upgrade. Receive/download<br />
  347.         the upgrade. Install on your development system.<br />
  348.         Repeatedly configure and test till it works as you want.<br />
  349.         Read the manual. Once you have that figured out,<br />
  350.         determine strategy to upgrade your servers with a major<br />
  351.         new software component without a) risking data loss, or<br />
  352.         b) interrupting service. Be sure you can fall back from<br />
  353.         your upgrade if you need to, while still retaining your<br />
  354.         visitor's transactions. Backup servers. Implement<br />
  355.         strategy. Hope it works.<br />
  356.    FreeFind: Nothing to do. FreeFind.com upgrades your services<br />
  357.              transparently.</p>
  358. <p>As you can see, FreeFind.com's new remotely-hosted technology allows<br />
  359. the webmaster to save truly amazing amounts of both time and money.<br />
  360. What once took a week or more to accomplish can now be implemented in<br />
  361. just a few minutes.</p>
  362. <p>In addition, it has also opened up a major new market.</p>
  363. <p>The vast majority of webmasters do not have "hands on" control of<br />
  364. their servers; they cannot install and run software as they please.<br />
  365. Till now, these webmasters simply could not provide a site search<br />
  366. feature as it required the installation of special software.</p>
  367. <p>Now, with FreeFind.com, all sites can have site search and navigation.</p>
  368. <p>Because the FreeFind.com search and navigation engine is<br />
  369. remotely-hosted, it does not require any additions or modifications<br />
  370. to the webmaster's server. This allows the service to be used with<br />
  371. essentially any site on the web - simply signup and go. No longer is<br />
  372. site search limited to the small percentage of sites that have full<br />
  373. server access and control.</p>
  374. <p>The advent of easily implemented site searching technology is<br />
  375. important not just to webmasters, but users of the web as well. Over<br />
  376. time, more and more sites they visit will have comprehensive site<br />
  377. search and navigation, allowing them to quickly locate the<br />
  378. information they are looking for and improving their overall web<br />
  379. experience.</p>
  380. <p> From major corporations to tiny operations, the new FreeFind.com<br />
  381. service always has something compelling to contribute. For small<br />
  382. operations the advantage is clear: now they can have site search and<br />
  383. navigation where they simple couldn't before. Large corporate sites<br />
  384. benefit as well by offloading a significant chunk of system<br />
  385. administration, by saving time, and by not having to pay the<br />
  386. multi-thousand dollar prices that search engines have often<br />
  387. commanded. In addition to all those benefits, software upgrades are<br />
  388. performed transparently by FreeFind.com, thus eliminating another<br />
  389. major headache.</p>
  390. <p>About FreeFind.com</p>
  391. <p>FreeFind.com currently has millions of people using its site search<br />
  392. technology and is growing rapidly. FreeFind.com is a privately-held<br />
