A new release of AlchemyAPI is upon us!

Notable additions in this release include: updates to the AlchemyAPI programmer SDKs, secure SSL access to AlchemyAPI for subscription users, content mining / Named Entity Extraction from photographs of printed documents (OCR+Entity Extraction), and more.

This release brings with it several new tools built around the AlchemyAPI content analysis services.  These include:

AlchemyTagger - Semantic-powered Tag Suggestions for WordPress Blogs

AlchemyTagger automatically works in the background as you’re blogging, analyzing your writing and suggesting useful tags for your posts. Tags make your posts easier to navigate, better-ranked by search engines, and can increase flows of relevant website traffic.

AlchemySEO - Semantic-powered Search Engine Optimization

AlchemySEO detects when a search engine is accessing your website, returning a semantically-marked up version of your content. Specifically, AlchemySEO annotates your web page content with REL-TAG Microformats and HTML META “keyword” tags.  By exposing this semantic meta-data to search engines such as Google and Yahoo, AlchemySEO improves your search engine rankings and increases flows of relevant traffic.

Orchestr8 will be exhibiting at Gluecon next week, May 12-13.  If you’re attending and would like to learn more about AlchemyAPI, please stop by our booth!
