We released a number of Compete.com updates today!

1. Cleaner Results with Report Overviews

Now when you run a Search Analytics report, you will see a new “Report Overview” table above each report. We have big plans for this section. Look out for more here in the near future. Let us know what you think:

3. Revamped Credit History Section

The new Credit History page gives you quick access to premium reports you run on Compete.com. You can now run and update (for credits) old reports from the Credit History section of MyCompete.

Tip: Compete Search Analytics reports are updated daily. Click “Update” on the Credit History page to re-run and update old reports with the latest data.

4. More Search Analytics data on Site Analytics

You asked for it, you got it. (hint: ask for more! :) We’re now exposing more Search Analytics data on Site Analytics. The layout of the new Search Analytics module on Site Analytics is much cleaner, and also includes a new metric — the total number of keywords that are driving traffic to the domain.

In the screenshot below, you see immediately that the gurus at Amazon are doing a much better job of milking the long tail than Walmart. Over a 10x difference - 286,306 keywords drive traffic to Amazon.com vs. just 27,206 keywords to Walmart.com!

How are you doing vs. your competitors?

In addition to the above updates, we also released a number of small usability and under the hood improvements. Please keep the feedback coming. We’re listening, and reacting.
