Yet MORE Cool Tools that are also Free! |
Yet MORE Cool Tools that are also Free! By Robin Nobles
Several months ago, I published an article on cool tools that are also free. We all enjoy discovering free resources that genuinely merit value, don't we?
Thanks to everyone who wrote and sent me your own cool tools. We'll keep publishing articles as long as you keep sending me your own ideas! We'll combine and categorize them into one very helpful list.
Here's Part 2 of our Cool Tools that are also Free. You'll find Part 1 here:
Cool Tools that are also Free! http://www.sitepronews.com/archives/2005/jan/19.html
Link Reputation Tool http://198.68.180.60/cgi-bin/link-reputation-tool.cgi
We know the importance of link popularity (the number and quality of inbound links pointing to our Web site). Equally important is link reputation - what those inbound links say about our Web site. In other words, link reputation is what is written in the link text, or the clickable text, pointing to our Web site. With this free link reputation tool, you can learn what other sites are saying about your Web site.
Trojan Scanner http://info-x.co.uk/netools/netools.asp
Wow. This tool really brings back "fond" memories when I had my very own Trojan horse clomping around inside my computer system. (A word of advice: please get a firewall!)
The Trojan Scanner at Information Exchange scans your system for 85 known Trojans. You'll hold your breath as it runs its scan, or at least I did. You'll also find a WhoIs Lookup, a Server Check, and other cool tools.
Quality Assurance ToolBox at the W3C Consortium http://www.w3.org/QA/Tools/
The W3C offers a suite of validators that you can use, such as a W3C markup validator, a CSS validator, an XML validator, a log validator, and some that I've never heard of!
As you know, it's important to be in compliance with W3C standards, and these tools and validators will help you to accomplish just that.
FreeWebSubmission Site Ranking Tool http://www.freewebsubmission.com/site-ranking.html
Plug in your URL and your keyword phrase, and you'll quickly learn your rankings across 12 major search engines in a minute or two. Pretty slick!
SnapFiles http://www.webattack.com/
Free software (freeware) galore! This is a computer addict's paradise. Enjoy!
Dynamic Drive http://www.dynamicdrive.com/
Dynamic Drive offers original dynamic scripts (DHTML) and a JavaScript code library, including calendars, mouseover images, DHTML games, scrollers, etc.
CoolText Logo Generator http://www.cooltext.com/
Not a Web or graphics designer (like me)? This site has some free logo and button generator tools just for you.
DNS Report http://www.dnsreport.com/
Many domains have DNS problems. This handy site will help you find those problems and fix them by providing a DNS report for your domain.
Everything You Want to Know about a URL (and I DO mean EVERYTHING) http://www.faganfinder.com/urlinfo/
URLinfo is a "tool for handling Web pages," and it includes 107 tools that you can use to dig for information on a URL. You'll be there for hours, so grab a sandwich and a cup of coffee and get ready! There are more nooks and crannies to this site than you can possibly imagine.
What is my IP Address? http://www.whatismyipaddress.com/
Doesn't take much explanation on this one, does it? If you ever need to know your IP address, this neat little online tool will answer the question for you.
Free Report on How to Measure the Effectiveness of Your Online Marketing Campaigns (by Marshall Sponder)
This free downloadable report is a phenomenal study in how to measure the traffic to your Web site. Too many times, Web site owners work and work on increasing their traffic, then stop way too short by forgetting about studying that traffic.
This PDF download takes you several steps further in helping you understand the value of analyzing the traffic to your online business.
Left click on the link below: http://www.searchengineworkshops.com/SearchEngineMetrics.pdf
Choose "Save Target As." Choose a location on your hard drive to download the free report to. Enjoy!
Free Wordtracker Magic Audio Tutorial http://www.searchengineworkshops.com/articles/audiomagic.html
Sign up for John Alexander's audio tutorial offering tips for doing keyword research using Wordtracker. Two audio tips are sent out by e-mail once a week, and they're approximately 2-3 minutes in length.
These tips are worth their weight in gold as they open your creative mind to researching keywords.
Search Engine Relationship Chart http://www.bruceclay.com/searchenginerelationshipchart.htm
By far, the best chart to show the relationships between the search engines and directories is Bruce Clay's. He does a tremendous job of keeping it up to date, and you can even download a copy as a PDF.
Again, thanks to all of you who shared these "cool tools" with me. Be sure and send me YOUR list, and I'll add them to the next article. Thanks so much! (robin@searchengineworkshops.com)
