:: SE Tools

Sort of a continuation of the last post.. I use these tools regularly. Bookmark it, and use it as needed.. Click Here

Link Popularity Tool - Research the number of links pointing to a website as indexed by six popular search engines. Also useful for comparing multiple sites for link popularity.

Search Engines Index Verification - Verify whether or not a site is indexed by the search engines. Type in a domain name and it will return the number of pages indexed by a particular search engine.

Search Engine Simulator - Allows the webmaster to have a "search engine" view of a website's titles and headers. Also shows all text and HTML code visible to the search engines. An especially cool tool if you're adding special characters to titles for more visibility.

Search Term Suggestion Resources - The Overture.com keyword/keyphrase suggestion tool gives associated search terms clicked on during the previous month throughout their advertising network. The free results can help you develop a fairly accurate list of keywords to target.

Free Search Engine Positioning Tool - Here's a free online search engine positioning tool that will determine website positions for keyphrases as well as archive your project(s) history.

Search Engine Relationship Chart - Clicking the interactive Search Engine Relationship Chart below will illustrate how most search engines rely on each other for their listings.

TouchGraph Site Relationship Charting - Perhaps now more than ever before, major search engines such as Gòògle may decide positions and relevancy for a website based on its association with other industry-specific sites. The TouchGraph maps out a visual representation of similar sites in a user-friendly interactive display. (requires simple Java plugin)

You will find all of these tools available on one page, to use freely... Now, you have no excuse for having a poorly ranked, magic-related, site. If you have a new site, it will take a few months before you begin to see real results.

Two other tips... Don't waste your time submitting your site through the multiple submission services. Sites that are submitted automatically are rarely indexed by the search engines. Take the time to submit your site manually to each of the top eight or so search engines. It may take an hour or so, but it's possibly the most important hour you'll spend getting traffic to your site..

Do sign up for Google Adsense. Adding adsense to your website may result in getting your site crawled by googlebots in just a few days, as Google has to send 'bots to your site to determine it's viability..
