About

RankTracer began, in 2006, as a small PHP script that queried Amazon on an hourly basis. Within a few months, a basic tracking and graphing service was released to the public. By the end of 2007, RankTracer had a built in sales estimation engine, a reporting and alert service as well as several free tools for researching product information on Amazon.

After a redesign of the user interface in 2008, along with the addition of several powerful new features, RankTracer began to attract a small community of regular clients. With a burgeoning community came new suggestions and feature requests and the pace of development and refinement of the service quickened.

By early 2009, RankTracer was attracting as many new customers in a month as it did in all of its first year of operation. A community network service for members was added along with a suite of free tracking and promotion widgets.

With nearly two thousand published authors, publishers, editors, celebrities, manufacturers and business leaders utilizing RankTracer each day, and traffic volumes that double periodically, RankTracer is set to grow into the de facto tracking and analysis service for the publishing and online retailing industries.

Recently RankTracer has also begun providing a high quality author review and promotion service to help authors and other retailers leverage the power of search and social Internet media.
