(PRWEB) April 27, 2005 -- Icon Interactive releases I! Alert: a desktop monitoring tool for Google and Yahoo. This tool allows users to monitor their Google and Yahoo ranking in real time.

Troy Janisch, president of Icon Interactive, said his company created the tool to fill the gap in existing programs to easily monitor keyword rankings in real time. We initially created the tool for ourselves and our clients to monitor the effectiveness of our search engine optimization services," Janisch said. But it was clear from the beginning that this would be a tool that everyone else could benefit from too. Thats why we decided to share it with others."

Most keyword monitoring tools are painful to use, he said, because they require that you remember to a username and password and you pay a monthly fee.

I! Alert (pronounced "I-Bang Alert") is different, he said for several reasons: it allows you to easily monitor the ranking of web sites on Google and Yahoo based on specific keywords; It monitors any keyword or phrase and instantly informs you of which top 100 position the website currently holds on Yahoo or Google; It stores any number of keywords and phrases for a single website; and, It bypasses the need for e-mail alerts.

I! Alert works on Windows 95, 98, 2000, XP, ME and NT. It sells for $19.95 and includes software updates. A free 30-day trial can be downloaded from the Icon Interactive web site: www.iconinteractive.com
