Innovators in Search - Guava Shortlisted for E-consultancy Innovation Award

) November 19, 2008 -- With over 200 entries across 13 categories, E-consultancy's Innovation Awards are sure to be hotly contested. Guava's award entry was focused on the development and subsequent success of its SEO tool set Ascendex.

The innovative Ascendex tool was built to spider sites in exactly the same way as a search engine would and identifies critical SEO issues in one hit. The tool can be used on websites of all sizes but it really comes in to its own with large-scale sites that would be impossible to review manually.

Our in-house programmers and SEO team have worked hard to develop tools such as Ascendex that benefit our clients by saving them time and money. I'm delighted to have their efforts recognised by such a well-respected organisation as E-consultancy.

Guava's Marketing Manager, Lotte Mahon commented, "Our in-house programmers and SEO team have worked hard to develop tools such as Ascendex that benefit our clients by saving them time and money.

The final judging has commenced and all winners will be announced in early December.
