List down the names of the Best SEO Tools?

[Kim Cunnings]

Muhammad, asking people to name the best SEO tools is like opening a can of worms, mind you. Everyone will now flock here and say their tools are the best. Will you simply take their word on that?

If you are really looking for the best SEO software in the market, it would be helpful to know what kind of tools you need. Do you need keyword research tools, analytics tools, automatic submitters, article spinners or what?

Depending on what you need people could recommend you some.

Anyhow, as you probably know Google's been very kinky these days, and you might not want to go to such extremes as blasting your site with dozens of bookmarks, web 2.0 links or links that come from spun content.

And, if your question was what white-hat SEO tools one could recommend, I would definitely recommend these:

-- SEO Spyglass (one can use Spyglass for 2 purposes: 1. to steal backlink ideas from competitors, 2. to perform an audit of one's own backlinks)

-- Google Analytics (GA provides insight into your website's traffic and helps you determine which traffic sources, advertizing platforms or keywords work best)

-- Google Alerts (can be a powerful tool if you know how to use it for SEO, just search for "how to use google alerts for SEO")

-- Website Auditor (this SEO tool helps you eliminate any coding, canonicalization or crawlability problems on your site - it does a complete SEO audit of a website)

-- Rank Tracker (you can use Rank Tracker to check rankings in a whole lot of search engines or to research a list of keywords, including long-tail ones).

And, in case you also need to prepare SEO reports for your clients, I'd recommend the Enterprise version of SEO PowerSuite. Its reports are kick-ass.

Hope this helps.
