Free SEO Tool

Looking for a great free seo tool? This one is worth a try.

A while ago I downloaded Firefox to see what all the fuss was about. Have to say I’ve been a convert ever since. I like the tabbed browsing, the speed and the huge number of extensions which help me customise my browser to my specific requirements.

One of my favourite extensions is called seo-for-firefox. If you’ve ever done any manual competitor analysis for a given keyword, you will know how repetitive and boring it can be.

This little extension is perfect if you want to know why Google or Yahoo! ranks pages.

“SEO for Firefox pulls in many useful marketing data points to make it easy get a more holistic view of the competitive landscape of a market right from the search results.”

Well that’s what it says on the SeoBook.com site and I have to agree with them.

The way it works is that you load the extension, turn it on, then enter a search into Google or Yahoo!. The tool then embeds the results into the Search Engine listings.

Under each result here’s what you can get:

• Page Rank
• Age
• Technorati Links
• del.icio.us links
• Yahoo! Domain Links
• Yahoo .edu Domain Links
• Yahoo! .edu Page Links
• Yahoo! page links
• Alexa rank
• Google cached Pages
• DMOZ listing
• dir.yahoo.com listing
• bloglines subscribers

When you look at a whole page of results it becomes pretty clear which key factors lead to a top ranking. You can see how your site performs compared to the rest, by scrolling down to the page with your listing on.

All in all this package has saved me many hours, and its provided a few areas to work on that I would not have otherwise considered.
