NZS.com launches Kiwi Status and Site Profile

It’s the first day of Spring! September 1st is not only a big day for every Kiwi that has been hanging out for warm weather, it’s also a big day for us at NZS.com: today we’ve launched two innovative new features to the NZS.com directory, Kiwi Status and Site Profile.

You’ve probably already noticed the categories are looking a little different within the NZS.com directory, and there are new icons beside every listing – this is Kiwi Status, NZS.com’s new way or ordering our website listings.

Kiwi Status is a unique way of identifying quality within the New Zealand Web space. We’ve created a system (the only of its kind in New Zealand) which orders websites based on around 20 different criteria – and gives them a “Kiwi Status”.

Kiwi Status offers you an objective view of what is available in the New Zealand Web space. The primary objective of this is to ensure that you get you the quality information that you want, faster.

Coinciding with the launch of Kiwi Status has been the launch of Site Profile. Site Profile is a useful tool for SEO (search engine optimisation). It displays the information about your site that search engines can see, such as: title tag, server information, Kiwi Status, and information from your NZS.com directory listing.

Site Profile also displays all of the sites that are currently linking to your site, and who you are linking to. This is a great link building SEO tool, as essentially you can use it to find out who your potential online partners could be, who could be linking to your site.

If you’re looking for government sites you can read the newzealand.govt.nz Site Profile, or if you’re more interested in news sites check out the stuff.co.nz Site Profile.
