SEO Elite and IBP pricing?

from Davin Ogden- SEO Strategist

SEO tools to improve search engine ranking does come at a price

While it is safe to say that on the internet you can find some free tools to use in your seo campaign.  I really don't recommend it myself.  I've tried to manage things like this in the past and it really is in your best interest to purchase your own seo software and keep track of your campaigns yourself.

For one thing, you can manage multiple seo campaigns within the software.  These things can include which sites directories you have already submitted to, which sites have traded links with you, which sites are giving you a one way backlink etc.  Just having this knowledge in the memory of the software saves you hours and hours, if not days of tracking this information down later.  Trust me, once you own either IBP or SEO Elite you will never go back to doing things the old way.  It just doesn't make sense. 

You will need seo software like this if you plan on having any sort of control and sustainability in your business.  Whether it be right now or a little later on.  I have come to understand that.  Having any type of control with your ranking and the need for more links and targetted web site traffic depends on it.

With that let's start to compare both IBP and SEO Elite when it comes to thier pricing!

SEO Elite

The price of SEO Elite is $167.00.  Overall I would say that the price is fair.  Like I've said before I do own both SEO Elite and also IBP.  SEO Elite doesn't have nearly as many functions as IBP, so if you take that into consideration it is still quite a good buy.  The added use that you will get out of it compared to doing everything completely by hand make the software pay for itself in a short amount of time.

The feature that I do like in SEO Elite, I will say, that IBP doesn't incorporate yet is the ability to submit to some article directories.  This does come in handy.  But, I'm not going to sway away from the fact that IBP is so much more superior in so many ways.  I guess if I was putting SEO Elite on a scale out of ten, I would give it a eight. 

Internet Business Promoter (IBP)

Well for one thing, IBP comes in two different versions.  IBP Standard and IBP Business.

IBP Standard is for small business owners that want to have a complete internet business promotion system for their own websites.  The standard version comes with the ability to manage up to 5 different domains.  If you need to manage any more sites than that you would need to go with the business version.  For this point this version is used most by small business owners to improve search engine ranking, manage all aspects of thier linking, on page optimization, off page optimization email tasks to other website owners in request for links etc.  IBP is the top choice by webmasters, businesses, and is the most highly recommended SEO campaign management software by top internet marketing webmasters and magazines.

Be #1 on Google and Yahoo!

IBP standard comes at a price of $249.00.  For the added amount of functionality that you get with IBP the extra $80.00 or so is indeed worth it.  If IBP had the capability of submitting to a few article directories like SEO Elite does I would give it an eleven out of ten.  But since it doesn't, we will have to settle for a 10/10.

IBP Business comes with corporations and people that would want to make a business out of using the software in mind.  The ability to handle unlimited domains/clients/projects.  And like I said earlier it comes with the ability to create custom reports and information for each client you may be performing SEO for.  So with the added features that come with this killer software IBP charges $449.00.  Considering you can literally go into business for yourself or handle a complete corporations SEO needs with the business version, it is a really great buy.

The Ferrari of SEO Campaign Management Software

Now before I leave these price comparisons.  I should mention that there is another seo software out there that does a similar job to SEO Elite but does not have any of the email functionality, that both IBP and SEO Elite have. 

When I used to be a member of Affilorama we had use of a product called Traffic Travis .  It does an alright job of getting some of these tasks done, and is possibly an option for some of you that want to get serious about your seo, but have a tight budget at the moment.

For my own personal SEO Optimization though my choice will always stick with IBP. (Internet Business Promoter)  Thier software has really made a lasting and trusting impression on me.
