IBP’s Modules
IBP features 5 modules: Keywords, Optimization, Links, Submissions, and Rankings.
Keywords
The Keywords module functions to find the best keywords for you. You can type in a seed keyword and IBP will generate suggestions for you. You can then shortlist your keywords and gather statistics such as the number of searches per month, the number of search results, and Keyword Effective Index (KEI).
One excellent feature of the Keywords module is that IBP allows you to choose many sources of keyword suggestions, which include Google Adwords, KeywordIndex.com, and YouTube Suggest. An added bonus is that you can choose from a range of countries to get your data from, so that you can get data tailored to specific countries.
The Keywords module also features a range of tools that allow you to generate long tail keywords and misspellings, improving your chances of attracting more visitors.
One shortcoming of the Keywords module is that it does not have filters. It is not possible to shortlist your keyword list automatically by specifying, for instance, for keywords with more than 30 searches a day. You would have to do this manually.
Nonetheless, the Keywords module is highly thorough and will greatly insist you on keyword research.
Optimization
The Optimization module is where you analyse your web page against the top ten competitors to see how well it is optimized for a selected keyword. The Optimization module contains what is arguably one of IBP’s best features: with the press of a button, IBP will generate a comprehensive report that details how well your web page is optimized, and what you can do to further optimize it. The report is downloadable as a webpage, a .pdf file, a .txt file, and a .doc file, allowing you to easily read it and print it.
A remarkable aspect of the Optimization module is that it thoroughly analyses your web page in terms on on-page optimization. The report has sections on your body text, heading text, and meta tags, and gives you statistics on keyword density and keyword use. It also compares details of your web page against the top 10 competitors, allowing you to track how relatively well your web page is optimized. Furthermore, the Optimization module pulls samples of your web page and the top 10 competitors, increasing the interactivity of the report.
Many IBP users praise IBP for the report feature. If they use the Business version of IBP, they can generate professional-looking SEO reports with IBP and give them to clients. An aspect of the report that is a double-edged sword is that you can edit them. Hence, there is the chance that reports can be manipulated when you give them to clients. However, that does not detract from the main of benefit of being able to tailor the reports to your needs, or your client’s needs.
Links
The Links module serves to handle your off-page optimization needs through facilitating the building of links to your web page. A highly powerful features of this module is that, at the press of a button, it searches for link suggestion forms, existing backlinks to your competitors, and blogs that can link to you. Basically, it automates looking for what links you need to obtain to achieve your ranking.
The Links module also improves the convenience and ease at which you build links, by allowing you to instantly preview sites from which you want to link. In addition, there is an in-built facility for you to send emails to webmasters, allowing you to quickly contact other sites to ask about placing or exchanging links.
One flaw in the Links module is that it takes a great deal of time for it to look and list all the websites you can link to. However, given that it is automated and that it does a thorough job, I found this flaw to be acceptable.
The Links module also has an elegant and clean looking interface that allows link management to be a much easier task.
Submissions
The Submissions module aims to submit your website to search engines. This is highly effective for inviting search engines to visit your website.
The Submissions module features an interface that allows you to select which search engines you submit your website to. The module lists the search engines and their relevant details, including country, language, and rating.
The Submissions module also has a semi-automatic submitter, which allows you to submit your website as fast as possible to Internet directories, special interest sites and search engines that require a validation code.
Rankings
The Rankings module allows you to keep track of your website rankings for your chosen keywords. It automates queries to the search engines. An interesting quality of this module is that it uses a human behaviour emulation delay when making search engine queries. This causes a deliberate delay, which entices users not to over-consume search engine resources.
Using the Rankings module, you can measure the performance of your Search Engine Optimization Efforts, and respond when notice a drop in rankings.
How does IBP differ from its competitors?
The main reason to choose IBP over its competitors is that it guarantees top 10 rankings in Google, or your money back. Firstly, you are able to ask for a refund within 30 days. Furthermore, you are able to ask for a refund within a year if you use IBP and do not get top 10 rankings. If you needed a reason to pick IBP over other products, this would be it.
