Seo Master present to you:
SEO tools are an Internet marketer's best friend, but most of them are garbage. How many times have you seen a "Free Software!" prompt, downloaded it and saw that the program was actually worth having?
Getting free software is great, but finding programs that you will actually use is a different story. I also don't know how many times I have found a free software download and the software has actually been free.
Well, in light of my distaste for how people toss "free software" onto BrotherSoft, cNet and other websites all the while knowing that they are not free or that the trial features are not very helpful, I decided that I would put together a list of great free seo software tools for you guys. Here are 5 free seo tools that I use every single day.
1. WonderWare Sitemap GeneratorThis tool is by far one of the best SEO software programs that I have ever worked with. It does so much that I can't believe it's free. The
WonderWare Sitemap Generator has the ability to crawl any website and extract every URL on the site or blog.
I use this thing for creating sitemaps and extracting the URLs on my tiered linking sites. For instance, I like to feed my blogs through dlvr.it to different social networking sites.
When I need to do an SENuke blast of my Tumblr accout, I fire up WonderWare and extract all of the URLs in less than a minute. I can then export these URLs into SENuke for backlinking. It's awesome, it's free and you'll use it every single day.
2. Sick Marketing Link Index CheckerCompletely free and unbelievably useful, the
Sick Marketing Link Index Checker is one of the best tools out there for finding out if your backlinks have been indexed. This tool checks for your links on Bing and Google with one click of a button.
You can even control the amount of threads that you have running so you can speed up the process. If you find out that there are a lot of backlinks that have not been indexed, you can export these in a single file to send over to Linkilicous or a pinger.
The Sick Marketing Link Index Checker is an essential for all marketers who use Magic Submitter, Sick Submitter, SENuke XCR, RankBuilder NEO or any other submission tool.
3. SecurityKissCan't find good proxies? Don't want to pay for a VPN service? SecurityKiss has been an awesome way to circumnavigate all of those little annoyances that plague the Internet marketing world, primarily IP banning.
When you fire up
SecurityKiss it gives you a new IP from a different place in the world. Disconnect and then reconnect and you will be given a different IP. This is great for using submission software like
SENuke because your backlinks will have different IPs registered to them.
I've talked about this tool before, but if you're unfamiliar you get 300MB per day. This is more than enough bandwidth for a day of blasting. Just remember to disconnect before verifying your email accounts.
4. Traffic TravisTraffic Travis has been another great tool for my marketing efforts. I started out with the free version and then got the pro version after a few months of debate.
I couldn't be happier with the service. If you just want the free version, which works well but was not enough for me, you can optimize all of your blog posts, do keyword searches and look at your competition.
The free version optimizes your blog posts 100% but you will only get trial results for the other options.
In my opinion, the paid version is much better and can start giving your results in just a few weeks. However, if you're just looking for a blog post optimizer, the free version is enough.
5. DropboxDropbox has changed the way that I stay organized with my marketing efforts. If you're like me, you need a place to keep all of your backlinking lists, keyword lists, ad campaign HTML, blog pictures, passwords, usernames, and scraped content. It can get extremely confusing if you're not organized.
I also run various programs across 4 different computers so getting data from one system to the next was a nightmare until I started using
Dropbox. Download it on all of your computers and start getting organized.
You will be surprised how often you drop data across your network to be used on different systems. This is also great for taking your laptop around so you have all of your lists, passwords, etc, anywhere you go. 2013, By: Seo Master
