Dulles, Virginia - (Cheap Web Hosting Directory) - December 18, 2007 - Business operating systems for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs), Everest Software, has released its new Search Engine Optimization (SEO) solution service, which maps the visitor search process.

According to the company, businesses are moving online as consumers demand the convenience and flexibility offered through online storefronts. In fact, e-Commerce holiday spending for 2007 is up 17% compared to last year. With more than $14 billion being spent during the season-to-date, e-Tailers are investing in new technology and marketing to drive consumers and businesses to their online storefront. Edwin Miller, CEO of Everest Software noted, ”Over 80% of business referrals from search engines come from organic search and not pay-per-click (PPC) advertising. We are committed to delivering our customers the tools and technology necessary to meet their revenue goals and drive business to online storefronts.”

Everest SEO solution is designed to:

• Increase the number of visitors to a Website by raising the sites ranking in Internet Searches
• Receive SEO expertise at a fraction of the cost of hiring full-time employees
• Leverage Everest to manage entire e-Commerce needs - Everest is integrated with your backend inventory and sales management eliminating the need to enter the same information in multiple databases

Most businesses that sell goods and services online seek to drive traffic to the website and increase online sales. While there are several ways to achieve this goal, most analysts agree that SEO is more cost-effective and yields better traffic than pay-per-click advertising. This reinforces the findings by Jupiter Research, which said that around 6 out of 7 searchers click the natural results (SEO), rather than the right hand listings (PPC).

In 2006, spending for search engine marketing in North America was up 62% at $9.6 billion, according to the Search Engine Marketing Professional Organization (SEMPO). Spending is expected to almost double to $18.6 billion by 2011.

Everest SEO gets your Website on the top pages of the Search Engine Results and keeps it there. More and more SMBs recognize that when SEO is implemented correctly, it can have a dramatic effect on business.

Scott LaPointe, IT director at Planet Inc. remarked, ”Since implementing Everest, we have significantly improved our SEO ranking and that is key to our continued growth. SEO is basically free advertising and thanks to Everest we are now excelling in the market.”

The Everest e-Commerce suite is robust and designed with the functionality necessary for a business to succeed on the web. With features like upsell and cross-sell items, product variations, and real time stock availability, the Everest e-Commerce storefront delivers an experience shoppers expect today. Warehouse staff can react instantly to new orders and maximize daily fulfillments with the integrated Everest order management system. The Everest dashboard provides sales managers a quick view of each online marketing channel, so decisions can easily be made to target the greatest revenue potential.

Everest Software empowers companies to view and manage every function of their business more effectively.
