Shareworld Tests Google Custom Search

As of today (Sunday 20th February 2011) we are running Google search on Shareworld to replace the native search of our CMS System (CMS Made Simple).

If anyone has any feedback on the effectiveness of search on Shareworld - including any issues/bugs or just praise, please let us know!

Share price information and realtime news search

We now have a share price lookup tool available on Shareworld, it will accept both company names and ticker symbols and will return simple share information including last price, day high/low and trade volume.

The price information is pulled from Yahoo Finance using PHP, the main downside is that the data is several hours old.

In addition to price information, the tool will also search Yahoo News, Twitter and Interactive Investor Discussion Forums for information on the stock in question and will return real-time news and discussions for any particular stock.

Try it out here - Share price information and real-time news search.

Shareworld and Amazon

After discontinuing our Amazon advertising last year after several disputes, we have decided to give it another go.
If you visit Shareworld you will see we have added some banners on both the homepage and sub-pages, we are also working on an Amazon-hosted Bookstore.

We had issues in the past whereby Amazon were not paying us the correct commissions due to a disagreement of terms, hopefully this won't happen this time around - as apart from that, we think Amazon offer a great service and hopefully in turn we will be able to offer our visitors some great deals on some of the investment books amazon have to offer.

Shares Awards 2010

On 11th November Shareworld attended the Shares Awards 2010 at the Grosvenor House Hotel in London, as a guest of Redmayne Bentley.

The awards are held every year by Shares Magazine and are presented to the best financial providers in various categories - as voted for by the public.

The evening commenced with a bustling champaign reception, giving everyone a chance to introduce one another - and scout out the competition!

At 7pm all the guests went through to the grand ball room where we were seated for a three course meal and the awards ceremony itself - presented by Ben Norris - UK Stand-up comedian.

The awards over, the guests were invited to participate in a variety of competitive games courtesy of Shares Magazine - these included a "nearest to Pin" golf simulator, clay pigeon shooting (simulator), Blackjack and various others.

All in all the evening was extremely entertaining and we hear that Shareworld's representative thoroughly enjoyed themselves!

Full details of award winners for each category are available on our website - Shares Awards 2010 - Winners.
