EXCLUSIVE: Raventools to integrate Webmastertools

Raven-tools

There used to be a time you had a tool for everything. These days are behind us. Many of the (search) tools we use are starting to give you the ‘full experience’. Do all the things you have to do around your website in one place. And why not. It is much easier to do everything within one surrounding than to have ten different places where you need to perform ten different tasks.

Sources say that next week Raven Tools will announce that they have made another step in this direction: they are integrating Google Webmaster Tools into their own tool. You can then do many things you can do within GWT also within Raven Tools. (more…)

Linkresearchtools launches SERP Research Tool

Linkresearchtools has launched a new feature within their tool: the SERP Research Tool. The tool helps you find link prospects in the SERPS of Google and filters out the actual valuable ones. Next to the Basic SEO stats you can add different parameters like traffic indicators, Social Votes and Mozrank. It actually filters the SERPS for you and then filters out the ones you already have a link on. With more filter options you can narrow down your search. It is a pretty impressive feature. Take a look yourself below.

New tool: Google Correlate: Google Trends in reverse

Google-Correlate

Google just launched an interesting new tool: Google Correlate. It is currently available in beta in Google Labs. The tool enables you to find queries with a similar pattern to a target data series. In other words: it does what Google Trends does, but in reverse.

The tool could very well be an interesting tool for SEOs doing keyword research, but is primarily intended for researchers. On their blog Google states that the tool is designed for researchers to see what terms best match the current trends in real life. (more…)

‘Majestic Million’ ranks the top 1 million websites based on links: co.cc wins

Majestic-Badge

There was a time when tools were simply tools and once you would have made them that would be it. Updates would hardly be made. In this time in which things go faster and faster tools tend to send out updates monthly or even weekly. Majestic SEO for example has been evolving a lot since they started, and with success. The tool to use when you are looking to dive into backlinks has now released its latest feature: Majestic Million.

Majestic Million is a list of all the websites you can imagine, based on the number of back links they have. You can then specify which sites you want to see in a list and you can off course see where your own site is ranked. (more…)

All about Social Media Monitoring Tools (infographic)

social-media-monitoring-tools-intro

SEO’s love tools, especially if they have built them themselves. Therefore there are a lot of tools around. Social Media might at first not seem like a ‘tool’ thing, but it sure is, especially when it comes to monitoring.

Socialeyzer decided to ask around about the tools. Who is actually buying the tools, how much are they paying for it, and what are the likes and frustrations. And off course: what are the best ones? The used Kissmetrics to make an infographic out of the answers. (more…)

Yandex integrates WebVisor in their analytics tool

webvisor-technology

With Google in the middle of working on changes in their strategy and Bing taking advantage by winning some market share in the US as well as in the UK it might be worth looking a bit to the east. There Yandex is slowly becoming a force which in the near future might be one we should take into account.

Yandex has been building on both their market share and their features steadily in the past year. And it is starting to show. They not only fired several features out there, they also launched their english version of Yandex.ru, Yandex.com. This version is pretty good to work with actually and might just be an interesting competitor to Google and Bing.

And Yandex is expanding in different ways. They have now announced it has implemented WebVisor, an analytics tool for tracking user behaviour on a website, which they bought late last year. (more…)

Link-Assistant updates broken link checker

link-assistant-links-check

Links are important, so everybody tries to get as many high quality links to their websites as possible. But what some website owners tend to forget is that another type of links is also very important in SEO: internal links.

It is always important to know whether links on your website still work or not. Broken links after all must be fixed as soon as possible. Manually checking all the links is not do-able, so SEO’s look for tools like Xenu. But there are more tools like that.

Link-Assistant.Com now has updated its on-page optimization tool WebSite Auditor to assist in easier spotting of broken links. Users now get the full list of broken links, their anchor text and HTTP status codes. (more…)

Linkdex review: a tool as your new SEO assistant

Linkdex-dashboard

At SES London I talked to the team of Linkdex. They wanted to show me their new tool. To be really honest: many people want to show me what they’ve built so they hope I will blog about it. In some cases I get pleasantly surprised in other cases it is hard for me to hide from those who want free promotion for a sucky tool. In this case that was different. It became clear very quickly that Linkdex had built something which could be very useful for many search marketers out there.

Linkdex offered me the opportunity to play with the tool for a while. I found that the tool is very useful and has a lot of potential. Below you can read my findings and review of the tool. At the end of the review you can sign up to be one of 50 to try out the tool. (more…)

There is a new tool in town. In the past few months Linkdex has been slowly but surely conquering the search world. And they’ve been surprising SEOs around with their functionalities. I myself got the opportunity to play with the tool and will post an extensive review on that tomorrow.

The people from Linkdex however also gave me an opportunity to get a sneak preview of their newest feature. And I was impressed enough to make a small post about that here. Linkdex will be offering a feature which will allow you to see which links were build in the a specific period. This means you will be able to for example see how your competitor is doing or how hard your agency is working for you. (more…)
