Access Log Scrubber and Log Optimizer Version 2 Released

K'nechtology Inc. announces the release of version 2 of its popular Access Log Scrubber and Optimizer software.

Toronto, Ontario (PRWEB) November 14, 2007 -- K'nechtology Inc., a Toronto search engine optimization and search engine marketing company, released version 2 of its Log Scrubber a popular access log scrubber and optimizer on November 12, 2007.

The Log Scrubber allows companies to refine their web site's access logs prior to processing by their web analytics tools. With a simple to use user interface, users simply define which elements they want to be removed from the log files prior to processing. By removing non-critical data (calls for the favicon, or traffic generated by server up-time utilities, or search engine bots for example), the size a log file can frequently be reduced by as much as 25%, if not more. This not only translates directly into faster processing time by corporate web analytics tools, but also improves the accuracy of the data being reported.

"In today's market, companies frequently analyze their log files in numerous times a day to drill down to the information they need reported. By pre-scrubbing the log files (removing the unwanted entries), this translates into several hours of less processing time and puts critical information into the hands of the decision makers faster." said Alan K'necht (Founder and President of K'nechtology Inc.). K'necht went on to point out "in today's market place where products like WebTrends charge based on the volume of page count in a log file, it becomes essential to remove traffic you don't report on. While these programs allow you to filter them out from your reporting, you are still being charged for this web site traffic. For example, a simple utility that calls a web page every 1 minute to verify the web site is running translates into 525,600 pages per year that you have to pay for. With the Log Scrubber they are removed long before any processing happens and that translates directly into dollar savings."

The Log Scrubber works with access logs from both Windows IIS and Apache access logs. It can be installed on most Windows operating systems including XP, Vista and Windows 2003.

New features in version 2 include:

• Option to compress or not compress processed log files

• Expanded log file support that now also includes UTF8, Unicode, UTF7 formatted log files in addition to the original ASCII file type

• Improved functionality for editing scrubbing criteria

The Log Scrubber is available free as part of a 30 day trial or for purchase from the company web site at http://www.knechtology.com/log-scrubber/index.html?pr=ls1. The Scrubber is available at the introductory price of $199 Canadian until December 31, 2007. Afterwards, the price will increase to $249 Canadian.
