Pagerank & Alexa ranking are not the the only factors that people will look at when analyzing the strength of a website. There are many elements come into play including but are not limited to basic on-page optimizations, domain age, inbound links, number of indexed pages in search engines, backlinks from social mediasphere (i.e. Digg, StumbleUpon et al) and xhtml, css validation.
Advertisers of these days are more concerned on how a website evolves; whether they are artificially boosted (blackhat) or naturally developed. I came across a few useful FREE SEO websites that provide thorough analysis as I hang out a lot in DP forum. Some of the websites are now buried deep in DP archives and I couldn't find a way to dig them out as most of them resided in threads totally unrelated to SEO things. So I decided to collect and list them (SEO tools that I still remember vividly) in this post.
Here is a list of FREE SEO tools.
1. Website Grader - This website provides a score that incorporates things like website traffic, SEO, social popularity and other technical factors. It also provides some basic advice on how the website can be improved from a marketing perspective.
2. Xinu Returns - Find out how well your site is doing in popular search engines, social bookmarking and other site statistics.
Note: I've seen websites with similar framework and template so I presume Xinu run on a similar script.
3. URL Trends - Features Pagerank, Alexa, number of baclinks from Yahoo & Google and many more. Fast at delivering result.
4. IwebTool - Provide pagerank prediction, in-depth analysis on backlink information, multi rank checker, website speed test and few more analysis.
Note: Pagerank prediction doesn't work most of the time.
5. SEO Book Tool - Features Search Analytics Tools, Keyword Research Tools, Competitive Research Tools, Link Analysis Tools & Search Engine Ranking Checkers.
6. SEO Digger - SEO Digger is a decent keyword gathering and research tool but what it really helps me with is determining a given site's overall theme and keyword focus. Apart from a list of search queries, wordtracker and overture results are also determined (keyword popularity calculated by Wordtracker.com). Data is also CSV-exportable.
7. QuarkBase - Provide overall stats related to social media popularity, traffic details and technical information.
8. Check Page Rank of Internal Pages - This is one of my favorite SEO tools and particularly useful after every pagerank update. The only downside is, it only registers 100 entry before it comes to a stop.
Note: Sometimes it's not responding but that is the only working Internal Pagerank checker I found so far.
There are many great FREE SEO tools out there but not listed here. If you find them to be useful and would like to share with our readers, please don't hesitate to add up your favorite SEO tool by commenting this post.
