Essential web admin tools included

Besides helping your visitors find what they're looking for, Zoom also provides features which are crucial to every web site administrator such as Broken Link Detection, Graphical Statistic Reports, and Google™ and Yahoo™ Sitemap Generator.

    Zoom uses its propriety-ranking algorithm to return results based on relevancy, and I have to confess that its scoring system surprised me. I compared the order of results as returned by Zoom against that of Google custom search for the test site that I indexed, and they're ranked pretty well in the same order. Whatever secret sauce they've cooked into their application, Zoom did an excellent job of addressing relevancy where many competitors failed.
