General SEO Tools

There are many various tools which help make the job of SEO quicker. These are
some of my more commonly used tools. All the tools in this section are free.
• FireFox browser – browser allows tabbed browsing, which saves a ton of
time when I am looking at about a half dozen sites at the same time.

• Firefox Bookmarks and Extensions – extensions and bookmarks I use to
customize Firefox to make SEO easier.
(http://tools.seobook.com/firefox/bookmarklets.html)
• Internet Explorer beta preview – allows tabbed browsing
(http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/ie7/ie7betaredirect.mspx)
• Internet Archive – shows the history of websites.
(http://www.archive.org/)
• Digital Point keyword ranking, backlink, and PageRank checker – I use this
tool to view my position for various websites in Google, Yahoo!, and
MSN. It also helps me hypothesize some of the ways they may have
changed their algorithms.
(http://www.digitalpoint.com/tools/keywords)
• Xenu Link Sleuth – finds broken links on your site, and helps you build a
sitemap. (http://home.snafu.de/tilman/xenulink.html)
• Free Meta Tag Generator – helps you create the code for your page title
and meta tags
(http://www.search-marketing.info/meta-tags/make-meta.htm)
• The Google Toolbar – good for highlighting keyword proximity and usage
and doing many things like giving you a quick glimpse of a cached copy of
a page and its backlinks. (http://toolbar.google.com/) If you are doing lots of
exceptionally aggressive promotional techniques it may be unwise to install
any toolbar distributed by a major search engine since it will help them
track and cross reference your sites.
• Google Toolbar buttons - if you use the Google toolbar for Internet
Explorer you can create custom buttons to act as an RSS reader or link to
various useful tools, like a site’s WhoIs history. I created a number of
buttons here (http://tools.seobook.com/buttons/)
• Top25Web PageRank lookup – shows PageRank of any page you input.
(good to use when the toolbar is broken)
(http://www.top25web.com/pagerank.php)
• Show IP – FireFox extension shows what IP Google results are coming
from (http://l4x.org/site/node/1078)
• GoLexa – SEO Swiss Army Knife tool (http://www.golexa.com/)
• Office application. Things like spreadsheets make life much easier as an
SEO. I use MicroSoft Office sometimes (http://office.microsoft.com/)
and sometimes I use OpenOffice (http://www.openoffice.org/). Either
will probably work for most jobs. OpenOffice can create PDF documents

for free. The newest beta version of Internet Explorer also can produce
PDF documents from web pages.
• Myriad Search – meta search service which makes it easy to compare the
top search results from the major search engines
(http://www.myriadsearch.com/)
• Espion – Free download application which makes it easy to change your
user agent to check for user agent based cloaking.
(http://tools.webguerrilla.com/new-browser-app/)
• Content generation & scripting: http://www.elance.com is an online
auction where people bid on your projects. You can find real bad deals and
real gems there. http://www.constant-content.com is a content bank full
of content for sale. The US government and the BBC are also offering free

Keyword Selection

Doing SEO effectively starts with finding the right words, phrases, and ideas to
target.
My general philosophy with most of these tools is they are good to get an idea of
what to go after, but most of them do not provide deep enough search data. The
best way to find deep search data is to bid broad match on Google AdWords, track
the referrals, find the good terms, and block bad terms. Use this data to refine and
improve your keyword list.
The only keyword research tool I have purchased so far and felt it was worth the
subscription price is WordTracker, but I actually like the free tool that I created a
bit more than WordTracker. Google’s free keyword research tool is probably the
S E O B O O K
3
best tool on the market, but if you use my tool it will provide cross referencing
links to all of Google’s tools and the other most useful tools on the market.
I also typically do not advocate changing content over and over again trying to find
a magical keyword density. In reality there is no such thing. Keep creating new
content regularly and don’t keep changing your old content over and over again.
• Free: SEO Book keyword suggestion tool – driven largely off of
Overture’s keyword suggestion tool, my keyword research tool makes it
easy to cross compare the results from most other keyword research tools
on the market. (http://tools.seobook.com/general/keyword/)
• Free: Google AdWords keyword suggestion tool – Shows 12 month
seasonal traffic patterns, bid competition, related terms and is exceptionally
easy to export keyword lists from.
(https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal)
• Free: Google AdWords traffic estimator – estimates the traffic you would
receive from AdWords given a specific bid. Also estimates the bid price
necessary to rank #1 on AdWords for 85% of queries
(https://adwords.google.com/select/TrafficEstimatorSandbox)
• Free: Google Trends – shows estimated trending data for keyword search
globally or by market. Data goes back multiple years and allows you to
compare multiple keyword phrases on the same graph.
(http://www.google.com/trends)
• Free: Digital Point keyword suggestion tool – free web based tool which
compares Wordtracker and Overture search frequencies.
(http://www.digitalpoint.com/tools/suggestion/)
• Free: MSN Search Result Clustering
(http://rwsm.directtaps.net/p5/clustermain.aspx)
• Various Prices (approximately $7 / day to $250 / year): WordTracker
– web based leased product which has many more features than the other
tools. WordTracker traffic is generally more representative of actual traffic
than Overture’s tool since many fewer automated bots scour its data
collection network than Overture’s.
(http://www.wordtracker.com)
• Various prices: Keyword Discovery - database of keyword data. Contains
historical data. Some of their partners made them sign a non disclosure
agreement. The database may not be as clean as the WordTracker
database, but it contains a bit more data.
(http://www.keyworddiscovery.com/)
Keyword discovery also provides free limited depth usage and has a free

keyword directory
(http://www.keyworddiscovery.com/keyword-directory.html)
• Various prices: Keyword Intelligence – database of keyword data from
various HitWise partner sources. I was not exceptionally impressed with
this offering. (http://www.keywordintelligence.com/)
• Free: Overture Search Term Suggestion Tool – offers search frequency
for the prior month throughout the Overture network. Please note that
many bid checkers and other automated bots cause this number to skew
high. (http://inventory.overture.com/d/searchinventory/suggestion/)
• Free: Google Search Suggestion Tool – auto-completes search queries to
help you find more related search terms
(http://www.google.com/webhp?complete=1&hl=en)
I also have an online Google Suggest scraper at
(http://tools.seobook.com/general/keyword-information/)
• Free: Google Sets – shows groups of related keywords.
(http://labs.google.com/sets)
• Free: Good Keywords – free downloadable software which can be used
for preliminary keyword research. (http://www.goodkeywords.com)
• Free: Ontology tool – finds related keywords using the Google ~ search.
(http://www.gorank.com/seotools/ontology/)
• Free: Keyword Typo Generator
(http://tools.seobook.com/spelling/keywords-typos.cgi)
• Free: Lexical FreeNet -- helps find ideas and terms related to a given word
or words. (http://www.lexfn.com/)
• Free: Tag Cloud – free Folksonomy tool (http://www.tagcloud.com/)
• Free: Competitors websites and related search suggestions from various
search engines such as Vivisimo, Snap, Gigablast, and Ask.

SEO Conferences

If you analyze the search results well enough you can figure out quite a bit of
information. Forums occasionally offer great tips as well.
I can’t recommend enough attending conferences though. Conferences allow you
to meet people and talk to them in person, which helps build trust, and some
people may be willing to explain things in private that they would not talk about in
public.
The two biggest conferences are Search Engine Strategies and WebmasterWorld’s
Pubcon. Both are great. Search Engine Strategies tends to be geared more toward
corporate marketing and Pubcon tends to be geared more toward independent
webmasters. Many of the same big names in the SEO field attend both
conferences.

can learn a bunch there too.

SEO Forums

The ability to gain near real time answers to your SEO questions makes SEO
forums extremely valuable. I have my opinions about which ones are best, and
likely you will have your opinions about which ones you will like best.
A good forum has a good sense of community, but different SEO forums have
different goals. Generally I support the idea that good SEO is generally making
good ideas that would be easy to spread and / or gaining high quality links. The
forums that allow open discussion of and support effective SEO ideas are my
favorite.
You will learn a bunch of your SEO knowledge from personal experience, but
forums will also help speed along the learning cycle.
• Free: Review of and links to most of the major SEO forums (and many
smaller ones too). Most SEO forums are free.
