IMI is proud to announce, that after a 14 month beta, we have released our proprietary "news" "Content Marketing" platform.   In short, IMI will  build an enhanced "Search Engine Optimized/Marketing" (SEO/SEM)  "breaking news" website around your industry's  keywords for your vertical/niche.  

Our platform will send our "trained"  "NewsBots" to scour the web (once an hour 24/7/365) for specific keywords.  Once our NewsBots find a breaking news story containing the keyword(s), they send it back to our servers which then reformat the story into a Drudge Report styled (but better) post.   We not only include the Title, Photo, and a direct link to the original content provider.  We include: Credit to Author, a 25 word blurb/preview, and other stories surrounding said keyword.  Because our platform does this every hour, 24/7/365, it gets noticed (Big Time) by the major search engines quickly driving traffic to your news site in droves.   

We can provide "targeted traffic" to any vertical, any niche, any subject.  Visit Near Field Communication News or take a look at the "Breaking News Site" we built for the NBA's Miami Heat at NBANewsHeat.com  Other examples include: NFLNewsBears.com & NFLNewsPackers.com.  In 3 short months, we've seen traffic grow from 900 in Month One to over 10,000 by Month 3.  So, in a very competitive marketplace (Profesional Sports) in the Big 4 (NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL) featuring the most popular vertical (Miami Heat) here's how we perform after only 4 months:
