STAT Search Analytics offers over 200,000 daily benchmarks to search marketers and SEO professionals.
UPDATE: We retired the STAT Codex on February 1st, 2015. We love that people have found it such a handy resource, but we’re refocusing on creating even better tools for the SEO community. Stay tuned!
Vancouver, Canada – October 11, 2011 – The online marketing community now has a massive, free source of real-time search ranking data, thanks to a new service called the STAT Codex.
Available at codex.getSTAT.com, the service provides over 200,000 daily benchmarks for 90 top-performing websites in a dozen key categories.
Created by STAT Search Analytics, a Vancouver-based web applications company, the service tracks around 79,000 keywords in Google, Yahoo!, and Bing. According to the founder of STAT, Rob Bucci, that makes it the largest free resource of its type in the world.
“We created the STAT Codex to give the search marketing community a freely available, comprehensive benchmark for organic keyword rankings. We think it will be an indispensible tool for anyone who needs to understand how search algorithms change over time,” says Bucci.
“As a reliable public benchmark, the STAT Codex has the potential to become a part of how we talk about SEO every day—in the same way that comScore or Hitwise are used to talk about online market share” he says.
The company timed the launch of the service to coincide with the unveiling of their new brand and product website, getSTAT.com. This unlimited release follows a brief limited release to conference attendees at SMX East 2011, held in New York in September.
For the unlimited release, Bucci is careful to point out that all users may use the data in any way they wish.
“It’s a completely open, free service, and we made it easy to export as much data as you need,” says Bucci.
STAT worked with Outspoken Media, an SEO consultancy based in Troy, New York, to research the tracked keywords.
“We looked for a good mix of long-tail and short-tail keywords for the best, broadest snapshot of each industry category,” says Bucci. “Outspoken Media did an incredible job, meticulously tagging every keyword for our users. We were lucky to work with them.”
“It feels great to offer something so useful back to the community that has taught me so much,” he says. “Of course, it also lets us show off just a bit of the power of the STAT Search Analytics platform. We can’t wait to see how people put it to use.”
