New plans & more tomorrow

We’ve got a brand new web site coming tomorrow, which heralds the commercial release of our software!

We couldn’t have gotten this far without the input from everyone that’s been using the software in our Beta trial over the last 2 years, so thank you to everyone!

Tomorrow we’ll have a new site online and you’ll be able to contact us through a new support area.  There are also new FAQ’s and a rather spiffy feature tour.

Our new plans are detailed in the image to the right.  The new plans don’t affect anyone that signed up before today, so there’s no need to worry.  Your current Plan has been discontinued, but you can stay on it for as long as you like.

Structuring Information for Search Engine Snippets

Here’s a quick update.

We’ve added a small improvement to our Theme support by defining a new header variable which can be used in the Theme.liquid file as part of the section.

Rather than hand-coding author, copyright, description and keywords meta tags, you can just code

[ruby]
{{ header.author }}
{{ header.copyright }}
{{ header.description }}
{{ header.keywords }}
[/ruby]

These variables will automatically generate the appropriate meta tags for your page’s content.

The advantage of these automatically generated tags is that they structure the description information in a way that makes it easy for the search engines to extract the relevant information about your product or page and this will appear as the snippet in the search results.

For details have a look at our Knowledge Base documentation
