“Hi everyone! I’ve been working in the search industry for ten years‚ĶAnd there is something nobody is talking about. Google can’t see and index every valuable page existing on the web. Far from it. On average, Google ignores 35% of e-commerce website pages”, he announced. “Botify is the first solution that gives digital marketers the power to control how Google understands their websites”, he declared.

May 2016 seems to be one of the greatest seasons for our company. After winning the European Search Award for the Best Search Software , we were nominated as a finalist in the Best Search Software category at The Drum Search Awards 2016 . And this week, here we are, in New York, pitching in TechCrunch’s Startup Battlefield , in front of the world’s leading entrepreneurs and a huge live audience.

TechCrunch’s Startup Battlefield brings together the world’s top early stage startups to compete on stage for the Disrupt Cup, a $50,000 prize, and the attention of media, potential partners and investors. 508 startups have participated so far since the first competition, in 2007.

Top VCs and entrepreneurs, along with TechCrunch editors are among the judges. The participation itself is a huge success, because it opens the doors to the membership in the elite ranks of Battlefield alums (Dropbox, Yammer, Mint, Tripit, Soluto and other distinguished companies).

Botify was selected one month before the event. Selection, based on the company’s team, product and market potential, was highly competitive, and we are proud to get a chance to participate in the competition. Botify has been also granted an exhibit space on the floor of the Startup Alley.
