GMO TECH, Inc. (CEO: Akihito Suzuki, hereinafter referred to as GMO TECH), a GMO Internet Group company that provides online customer acquisition services, has announced that its MEO (※1) comprehensive management tool, "MEO Dashboard byGMO," has been selected and recognized for the "ITreview Grid Award 2022 Fall" (organizer: ITcloud Inc. URL:https://www.itreview.jp/award/2022_fall.html) in the "MEO Tools" category, we are the only company in the MEO category to have won the highest "Leader" award for nine consecutive years, and we have also won the highest "Leader" award in the "SNS Management" category for six consecutive years.
(※1) MEO is an abbreviation for "Map Engine Optimization," and refers to measures to improve the search ranking of a store page on Google Maps. It refers to measures to aim for a higher ranking in the search results on the Google search results screen and Google Maps when a keyword is searched on Google.

　ITreview, a review platform for business IT products and cloud services, has developed a unique four-quadrant map called ITreview Grid, which uses collected reviews from real users to understand customer satisfaction and product recognition in the market.
The "ITreview Grid Award" is a quarterly award ceremony that recognizes products that have received positive user support based on reviews posted on ITreview. This year's "ITreview Grid Award 2022 Fall" awards recognize reviews posted up to September 2022.
The two areas with the highest user ratings on "ITreview Grid" are recognized, with products in the upper area being awarded a Leader badge and products in the lower area being awarded a High performer badge.

　As demand for staying at home increases due to the spread of COVID-19, companies and business owners who primarily operate physical stores are accelerating the trend toward digital transformation, selling products not only in stores but also online via e-commerce sites.
"MEO Dashboard byGMO" is a comprehensive MEO management tool that is equipped with all the functions necessary for operating a "Google Business Profile (hereinafter referred to as GBP)" and allows you to analyze MEO's daily search rankings and customer attraction effectiveness, as well as update store information, all in one place.
"An interface that anyone can use," "GMO TECH's unique insight comparison function," "improved business efficiency through centralized management of GBP," "customer satisfaction that encourages word-of-mouth on Google Maps from the survey response screen," "SNS reverse pattern posting function that can reflect posts on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter in GBP," and "keyword analysis function that can check the search terms and search queries that led to traffic to GBP." These are all comprehensive functions that support the digital transformation of physical stores, as well as GMO TECH's unique support system, which have led to customer support and have led to this sixth consecutive award.
We also received the highest "LEADER" award in the "SNS Management" category for the third consecutive year. "SNS Management" refers to a tool that allows a company to operate and manage multiple SNS accounts, such as Facebook and Twitter, all at once, and we believe this was in recognition of the functional integration of "MEO Dashboard" with Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. We will continue to work on further enhancing the functionality of this SNS management tool, such as by integrating it with official Line accounts.
