Can't I get all that information for free from well-known online search engines?
The truth is, probably not. The most well-known search engines retrieve only a small percentage of the 500 billion documents on the Web. So, what is the chance that they are giving you the most relevant information to your business? And if the free services did pull the most important articles for your business, how much time would that take for you to search, scan and filter through the hundreds, even thousands, of articles that any search term might deliver?

In side to side comparisons, we have found that the most popular free services miss 6 out of 10 of the top daily articles that TECHMarketNews posts for our subscribers.


How does TECHMarketNews find articles that the free services do not?
TECHMarketNews utilizes customized search technology that is super efficient, performing searches on multiple terms at one time and prioritizing each article . We do not conduct a universal search of the entire Web. Rather, we target only the key online media outlets for your technology interests. Through advanced search capability and human editors, TECHMarketNews pulls no duplication or archives, only the most current postings. Lastly, our search engine and human editors go beyond news coverage to dig deeper into key Websites for feature stories and research reports.


Is TECHMarketNews an online clipping service?
No, most online clipping services are not intelligent, and searches are done on terms only - they do not discriminate the context or value of the term without significant user programming. TECHMarketNews is a personalized and intelligent search service. Our engine can search on a nearly infinite number of terms, while at the same time a sophisticated valuation system prioritizes the articles. Human editors do the final selections, in order to tee up only the most important articles in your market segment.


What are TMN qualifications to offer this service?
We have been serving the communication needs of technology companies for more than 10 years, and most of our associates have been in the technology market for more than 20 years. We know first hand how to get the information that makes a difference, and TECHMarketNews was born out our efforts to help our clients improve their bottom line. At the core of the TECHMarketNews operation is a proven methodology and approach. Based on identifying, documenting, testing, and refining processes inspired by the Capability Maturity Model (CMM) from the Carnegie Mellon Software Engineering Institute, our methodology and constant evaluation of processes drives cost and performance efficiencies that benefit both TECHMarket Communications and its clientele.


Is there an automation component or is it all manual searching?
We built our own search engine to serve the specific needs of technology companies. Through our advanced search automation, we go directly to the most important online media outlets for your product category and market segment. We continually evolve, deepen and expand our reach to optimize the targeted information we bring to you every day. Through constant input from our clients, we continually adjust the valuation assigned to your search criteria, in order to prioritize the articles delivered every day. We are able to search on a nearly infinite number of search terms at the same time, and still deliver only the top 10 to 12 articles to you daily.


Why is it so important to have actual people involved in the process?
Applying human intelligence as the final step in distilling the myriad results down to the most relevant articles for your market segment is what makes TECHMarketNews such an invaluable tool. We have performed numerous side-by-side comparisons to other services and our experience has shown that six out of the top 10 articles we pull daily do not show up on other widely recognized search engines. In fact, we have to manually purge through dozens of redundant and archived postings on free search engines to find the articles that match our findings of the most current and relevant articles in a particular market segment.


How does this product fit in with the rest of my communication programs?
Over the years, TECHMarketNews has become the lifeline for many companies—validating company direction and strategies, or uncovering a key sales prospect looking to make a purchase in the next few months. We drive communications like your own in-house research team by aligning ourselves as closely with your organization as possible. Your mission is our mission. With your guidance, we define your search criteria, and then we run from there. With the market in a constant state of motion, feedback along the way enables us to continually optimize the delivered product and evolve with your communications program.


Why would I choose TECHMarketNews over other services?
