FoodPair Launches Smart Ingredient Technology to Simplify Recipe Search

San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) November 17, 2011

Today FoodPair (http://www.foodpair.com), a leading recipe search engine, unveiled its Smart Ingredient search tools. FoodPairs innovative technology understands the complex relationships between the many ingredients people cook with everyday.


Until now, recipe search engines werent capable of producing useful results for common ingredients like mushrooms. FoodPairs Smart Ingredient technology solves this problem by showing clearly labeled results that make a distinction between the many kinds of mushrooms, said Founder and CEO Raj Irukulla. From there, users can easily limit their results to a specific type of mushroom such as porcini. In this way, the site offers suggestions for expanding or narrowing searches to connect people with dishes they like.


In tough economic times like these, FoodPair helps people save time and money by showing what they can make with the ingredients they have on hand. The new features also solve the common problem of not having the exact ingredients in a recipe. Smart Ingredients help users start with one ingredient they have, like Gorgonzola, and then expand see all the Blue Cheese recipes they can make as well.


FoodPair offers free access to nearly a million recipes from top food sites as well as tools for finding a great dish for any occasion. The sites powerful filters enable quick and easy sorting of recipes by ingredient, dish, course, complexity and diet. As the only recipe site with Personalized Search Filters, FoodPair allows users to save their specific search preferences and easily find recipes matching their dietary needs. After creating a free account, users can personalize the Dietary Filter for a Vegetarian or Low-Carb Diet and FoodPair will save their choice for all future searches.

Taptu Allows Users to 'DJ the News' on Android Devices with Endless Mixtape Technology

Cambridge, England & Denver, CO (PRWEB) November 17, 2011

Taptu, the social media and mobile search technology company, is announcing version 2.0 of its popular social news reader app for Android phones and tablets, with support for Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich and a unique new feature that lets users turn any keyword into a contextual stream of news.


Taptu 2.0 is the most visually appealing and useful way to find and consume content on Android devices, especially tablets, said Mitch Lazar, CEO of Taptu. The new app marks the launch of Endless Mixtape search-based streams, a feature unique to Taptu born out of our search algorithms and heritage that allows users to customize their news and information experience more than any other app.


In addition to a more beautiful and easy to use interface, Taptu version 2.0 introduces Endless Mixtape streams that use Taptus search technology to create targeted streams for any topic.


Taptu is best known for letting users DJ the news by mixing and matching different publications, blogs, RSS and social media feeds to create customized streams of social news content. With version 2.0, users can now take customization to a whole new level by creating tailored streams based on a specific keyword search or by filtering existing streams to only include stories that pertain to a specific topic.


For example, Lady Gaga fans can go to the SteamStore and use this new feature to create a Lady Gaga Endless Mixtape stream. The stream would glean all stories featuring or mentioning Lady Gaga from Taptus curated Music, Fashion and Celebrity streams as well as their immense collection of publications, blogs, RSS and social media feeds. Similarly, Florida Gator fans, could create an Endless Mixtape of news capturing just the news about their favorite team from the larger stream of college football news. Endless Mixtape streams allow users to have stories and social media content pertaining to specific people, products, places, events, teams and topics delivered to them in real time.


Android users can also use search to dig into streams they already follow, such as Taptu Technology Stream, and filter out just the stories related to a particular subject such as Android or Ice Cream Sandwich.


Other features on Taptu 2.0 for Android include scrollable widgets, giving users the power to bring their favorite streams right to the homepage of their Android phone or tablet. Scrollable widgets also allow the user to flick through the top stories for each stream before having to actually open the app.


From the biggest news of the week to stories that cater to individual passions and specialized interests, Taptu allows users to keep news, blogs and social feeds organized in a clean and intuitive design. The companys search engine heritage allows Taptu to go beyond simple RSS feeds by actually recommending sources and enabling consumers to discover new content. Taptus search expertise and algorithms also eliminates duplicate stories to ensure that users dont see the same story over and over.

BREAKTHROUGH SEARCH ENGINE SUBMISSION & POSITIONING TECHNOLOGY RELEASED

(PRWEB) October 20, 2002

PositionSolutions.com, the developer of 'patent pending'


methods to get top listings in the search engines, has


decided to release their technology in a web-based management


module, said company representatives on Friday. Previously


only available to large agencies, advertising and marketing


companies at a cost of over $ 6000, the new PositionSolutions.com


Cloak 3000 module will be $ 199 per month and virtually


guarantees getting to the top of every major search engine.


Companies have traditionally outsourced search engine


placement to professional firms due to the attention that


this type of marketing requires with some webmasters


spending up to 30 hours each week trying to get top listings.


"Competition for appearing at the top of search listings


has been fierce", says Jeff Greenfield, vice president of


1st Approach Media, a strategic media marketing company


and consultant to PositionSolutions.com "but larger sites


have always had an unfair advantage over the smaller ones


Positionsolutions.com's Cloak 3000 evens out the score."

Traditional search engine placement involves the time


consuming task of registering a site with every search


engine and then making 'search-specific' pages known as


'doorway pages'. Every search engine has its own 'listing


algorithm', so for a site which desired to be listed under


30 search terms, between 300 to 400 new pages would have


to be designed and updated on a monthly basis. Another


major problem, 'doorway pages' are based on mathematical


formulas and are not as appealing as most websites -


yielding a very low click thru ratio.


Eliminating both the time and knowledge commitment,


Positionsolutions.com enables anyone to completely generate


all of the necessary work in less than an hour. Upon


entering up to 30 search terms and a company description,


Cloak 3000 automatically generates up to 600 'doorway pages'


and then completely cloaks them so only the search engine


spiders are able to see them. "When a web surfer clicks on


your listing in a search engine, they are automatically taken


to your home page - totally eliminating the possibility of


anyone seeing your doorway pages."


The best part of the PositionSolutions.com system is that


no changes are made to the website - a totally new domain


is utilized. Included in the monthly fee is a separate


domain from which all of the submissions and changes are


made. Sales and marketing departments will now be able to


make instant marketing decisions without involving their


IT departments.


Now available to the public, PositionSolutions.com is available


as a 90 day trial for only $ 349 and includes submissions for up


to 30 search terms, daily statistics, quick inclusion in Google,


Yahoo & AOL and also includes the 2003 Directory Submission


Guide.
