Yesterday, Seattle-based Moz announced it was laying off more than a quarter of its staff and refocusing the company on “what we love and what our customers value from us: search.”
At the same time, Nashville-based Raven Tools has announced it is similarly refocusing on its original specialty of search optimization, by releasing a completely rebuilt, standalone version of its Site Auditor tool.
It is designed to improve SEO by spidering and then identifying website problems at a code level, allowing the recommendations to be quickly shared for team members to fix.
Co-founder and president Jon Henshaw told me that, when the company was originally founded in 2007 as a marketing agency, its first software development was oriented around search engine optimization. Early products focused on tracking traffic from organic search and search results ranking.
