BCSE sells the Feed Manager that is produced by Firetank Software. Don't believe that BCSE has their own Feed Manager.

It's this product:

Firetank Software is actually the software vendor that created that product, BCSE is the reseller.

I'm happy to say that the NewsPro module, from SafetyNetWeb, is now supported by XCSEO Pro!

You can see NewsPro supported by XCSEO Pro at:

Hello,

We are looking at several different SEO mods, such as these two -

http://www.websitecm.com/x-cart-mods/cdseo-pro-x-cart-seo.html

http://www.magneticone.com/store/X.Cart.Modules...Mods/Advanced.SEO.for.x.Cart

Does this XC-SEO mod have all the features of these two mods? How would you compare them?

Hi Eric,

CDSEO Pro and XCSEO Pro function fairly similarly, and both allow full control over your URLs for Categories, Products, Static Pages, Manufacturers. Both also keep a URL history of all urls.

CDSEO Pro additionally supports custom page titles, custom meta tags (keywords/description), and custom anchor title text, as well as import/export.

XCSEO Pro supports "arbitrary" urls, meaning that you can rewrite pages that aren't automatically supported, such as help.php?section=faq, could become frequently-asked-questions.html, for example. The "arbitrary" url feature of XCSEO Pro is completely unique to XCSEO Pro.

Those features I mentioned that CDSEO Pro has, are being added to XCSEO Pro.

Additionally, there is a fairly distinct difference in administration between CDSEO Pro and XCSEO Pro. CDSEO Pro has a centralized administration interface, with it's appearance designed to separate itself from the X-Cart administration. To modify any of your URLs, you have to use that central interface.

XCSEO Pro, on the other hand, supports modifying your URLs when you are adding/modifying products, categories, static pages, manufacturers, within the native X-Cart interface.

Additionally, XCSEO Pro will soon have a central interface for managing all urls (in addition to the management capability from each of those 4 sections as I just mentioned), so that you can manage your URLs in whatever way suits you best. This central interface will also be ideal for better managing arbitrary urls, as well as the custom title, meta tags, and anchor title text.

For most users it seems to come down to value for your money. XCSEO Pro only costs $120, or $150 incl install fee, whereas CDSEO Pro is $200, or $250 incl install fee. That's a noticeable price gap for the same base features.


Regarding MagneticOne's module, I'm not qualified to say. It's been around for awhile, but has never been one of the more widely used SEO modules. Additionally, they're in the middle of revamping their module apparently, as it's not available for purchase, so it'd be unfair to try to compare when they're likely going to revise their feature set.

Thanks for the reply intel.

How soon until the XCSEO has the same functionality as the CDSEO? Will there be an additional cost for the upgrade?

Re: XCSEO Pro - Best X-Cart SEO module available!
 
Hi Eric, I hope to have that functionality implemented within 1-2 weeks (preferably sooner, but I can't guarantee). And no, all updates to XCSEO Pro are provided freely to all XCSEO Pro customers. Additionally, XCSEO Pro will never be replaced by a similar product, with customers having to pay the difference in cost. Anything that can be done to improve XCSEO Pro, will always be contributed back to XCSEO Pro's code and all customers ;-)
