Things at Nicecoder have been heating up during the month of November. News of a new release has been given but no date has been set yet. A large number of fixes were released last month that take care of some issues that users were having and a discussion on the future of IndexU is still taking place on the forums.
I am happy to say that users are participating in the discussion and telling us the direction they would like to see IndexU to take. A number of the items discussed have already been implimented and a number of items are planned for the near future.
I’m looking forward to working with everyone in the new year and hope you have a great holiday season. See you again next month!
New Pricing
New pricing has recently been introduced and this should give IndexU a boost in the sales department.
As a year end sale current licenses for IndexU are only $60!

Nicecoder has also introduced a 10 and 25 domain license for users that don’t really need “unlimited”.

Automated Installer
Dody has recently written a script that will install your copy of IndexU for you right from the Nicecoder website! The installer is free to use and should work on any webserver. Feel free to check it out!

Tips
Recently on my blog I detailed how to impliment the IndexU spam filters. This is a great feature that not many IndexU users know much about. Using this tip you can filter out spam keywords and domains and they will get sent into your spam links area where they can be deleted at your leisure.
