Squiz Funnelback Pattern Analyzer
July 21, 2010
If you’re looking to be able to fine tune search rankings and other features then you should be looking to the Funnelback Pattern Analyzer. If this sounds little too good to be true for your business needs than you’ll also be excited to hear about the Web based administration interface that comes with the product.
By looking in the analyze section of the administration interface you’ll see a query spike detector that’s especially useful for alerting you to a change in user patterns or even query spikes.
The interface can even provide the kind of geographic information that you’ll find useful and there’s another report that alerts you and informs you of the size and length of each of the spikes. The analyzer can be set up to inform you via email when these spikes occur or to send a regularly scheduled report.
More information about open source Funnelback is available from the Funnelback Web site. Like other search vendors, Funnelback is holding its first user conference in October in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. That’s a bit far for the ArnoldIT goslings, however.
