Only a word , Fantastic ! .

When ODP came along, I didn't see much value in it. However, it was priced very well and I figured Anaconda had done so well with Amazon, I wasn't out any money even if it did bomb. Talk about underestimating the value of a product! My Anaconda ODP page is nearly always in my top ten pages in terms of visitors. Since traffic is the lifeblood of any site, this program was a Godsend. It's also a handy research tool for me as I go about adding value to Mindconnection. Others use it for research, too. An engineering company in Virginia book-marked it on 83 computers. They felt it was better than Yahoo, because it gave the same information without all the ads and other junk. Since visits to Mindconnection run about 2,000 a day and some days average more than 3 hours, I can't help but think they are not alone in this opinion.

I'd also like to mention a product that failed. Anaconda etoys seemed like a good idea, based on my prior experiences with Anaconda products-and the excellent tech support I needed before they made the programs such a breeze to install and update. I bought Anaconda e-toys, and my next check from e-toys.com was more than what I paid for the program. This continued until e-toys.com suddenly changed their database. I was really frustrated by this! Anaconda offered me a full refund on my purchase price on their e-toys product, but I refused to accept it because the product worked as advertised and then some. Shortly after this, e-toys.com came out with their own version of Anaconda e-toys, but I have never earned a dime from it.

Thank you for making me look good!

Adding dynamic content couldn't be any easier, and our visitors love it too! I just had to drop you this note to say, "WOW! Your Anaconda products for webmasters are great!"

Adding content to our site used to be a tedious job, finding the content, hand coding it in and then constantly updating the pages. But no more! Your scripts make it easy! The dynamic content is always fresh and accurate. With your scripts doing all the work, I now have more time to focus on advertising and promoting our site.

Oh... and boy do our visitors love it too! Time and time again their feedback states "I no longer have to waste my time searching through long and irrelevant search engine results. I just come to your site and there it is!"

Our sited traffic has increased twofold, (and is still increasing!) since installing your scripts. Your documentation is so through and easy to understand that I seldom need any help. But when I do need support, you always respond promptly.

Thank you, Anaconda, your products make me look good! And that is priceless.

This is one of the best programs we found and the only program that could grab news and integrate it into our site seamlessly. Our site wouldn't be a true portal without news and the only other way for us to provide news would be to type it in manually everyday. Anaconda! Clipper saves us hours of work each day, automatically keeps content fresh on our web site, and has proven to be a great asset to DesertPortal.com.

Thank you Anaconda! Not only do you have great products, you have great concepts.

We used their Director script, a free, fully customisable user interface, to add extra functionality to our web site. And we were so impressed, we jumped at the chance to integrate their commercial Foundation Search of products.

They have enabled us to introduce features we consider far surpass the quality of the 'big-players'. Features like quality-controlled web searches and amazing comparison searches of hot products like books, video, music and toys. We even have auctions, forums and job sites covered, and it's all controlled from the original user interface - Anaconda Director.

Fully configurable, with astounding performance, Anaconda products have single-handedly given us the upper hand in our industry. We can provide an outstanding service to our rapidly growing user base, and thanks to Anaconda Partners, our website has turned into a full-time business operation. We're so excited about the future, we've put our name down for their upcoming products already!

Thank you!!!!!

I just wanted to thank you both for the great support and advise you have provided on my chef2chef project. I am elated with the functionality and the ease of maintenance on your Foundation Search products.

Keep up the good work!

The installation process was quick and painless. And the additional module installed in seconds, just as you mentioned in your onsite documentation. Every CGI script should be this easy!

With your online discussion board and active community sharing ideas, we have been able to modify and customize our MetaSearch to our hearts content. Support is always quick and helpful!

Thanks again for the wonderful product and we can't wait for your next Foundation module!

Anaconda Products have really boosted my web site. You can't have a successful on-line business when you don't have anyone looking at your page. My web traffic and profit has tripled since I have purchased Anaconda Products. It really keeps the visitor on you site and coming back.

I most defiantly have to give credit were it is due. All of my return visitors are due to Anaconda. Thank you for the great script.

We have achieved brand recognition among customers looking for content, information and books about the African-American, Multiracial and Latino experience. As an Amazon.com associate, we have been able to offer a niche interest in African-American literature from the growing inventory of Amazon.com books, music, and new products. We have climbed the ranks of the search engines, claiming several listings in most of the major portal sites, including the coveted Yahoo ranking, and are one of only a handful of sites like ours in the Open Directory. We have been deluged by hits from around the world and e-mails asking for more content and information.

What accounts for our rapid growth and success on the web? The unprecedented popularity of African-American Studies and the heightened visibility of "public intellectuals", such as Henry Louis Gates, Jr. and Cornel West, has helped. Literary lights such as Toni Morrison, winner of the Nobel Laureate and the explosion of interest in African-American literature in general have contributed dramatically. But, in the end, it has been a tiny Perl script little more than a page long that has enabled The Black Bookshelf to truly distinguish itself from other affiliate sites. Ultimately, it is Anaconda that has made all the difference.

The name of the product alone, "Anaconda" evokes images of a knowledgeable guide, familiar with the uncharted rough and tumble of the vast Amazon. Interestingly enough, this metaphor is not far from the truth, the symbolism of which is not lost on anyone who is an affiliate of Amazon.com. In a World-Wide-Web where "affiliate sites" tend to be looked down upon as junior partners in the "real world" of e-commerce, Anaconda is a powerful ally. The product itself and the individuals responsible for its creation are one of the few entities on the web that offer such a powerful tool for webmasters.

When we signed on as one of the first affiliate sites on the web with Amazon back in 1998, Amazon.com had already amassed a strong collection of books and material relating to the Black, Multiracial, and Latino experience. The Black Bookshelf simply pulled those resources together into one place. But it was Anaconda that gave our users the power to search for any book they wanted in an interface that was familiar to them. Since then, we ve also added multicultural greeting cards, music, posters and prints, and the ability to trace family ancestry.

Beginning in the spring, we will add a forum where buyers and sellers of used books can find each other, kind of like a Bibliofind for black books--classics in black studies, antiquarian titles, and first editions. Again, we will turn to Anaconda for their newest script that will allow users to search Amazon zshops for these rare books.

Our customers are the most important part of our business. They come to The Black Bookshelf because they know that they can target their search for African-American literature within the vast reaches of Amazon.com. But it is because of Anaconda, our wise and dependable guide to the Amazon, that we have been able to provide them with such an enhanced service. We simply would be lost without Anaconda.
