It seems like only yesterday that we announced the release of the "URL Tools" section of your ANR Portal, but we already have an update to share! We've added a new "Recommended Sites" tool that will allow you to highlight your site when someone uses the search tool provided at the top of Site Builder 3 sites.
We use Google's Custom Search to power the general search results in all Site Builder sites. Even though Google returns good results, it may not always return the best result. To assist our users in finding the right results, our Recommended Sites tool will query an internal list of search terms and try to find a match.

Once again the Web Action team is releasing something new! Something that many have asked for one way or another. Currently you may track your blogs statistics using the built in visits counter (which is not precise at all). Or you may use Google Analytics. Which works great except for the fact that your blog may be incorporated into many different Site Builder 2 and Site Builder 3 sites and Google Analytics cannot track these. This makes tracking blog stats almost impossible... Until now!
I would like to introduce to you "Blog Stats Beta"! These stats differ in that they gather data not only about each blog but data about each blog post is tracked individually. The stats are counted for any location that the Blog...
