The correct tools are make or break in the search for search optimization processes that bring more traffic.

Using the correct tools is very crucial, however.

Go to Google and just type in “Google keyword tool”. Another great one sorry not free is Market Samurai, which does a lot more than just keyword research.

Nichebot is another great one, though it requires a monthly subscription. Used by many, Word tracker is also very popular, and it requires a subscription payment. Read reviews on these different keyword tools in order to choose a plan with the features you like.

An oft overlooked asset is the humble and near invisible RSS Feed. Blogs automatically have RSS feeds, but its a pretty good bet that your static site does not. But this is not a problem as you can easily add an RSS feed to any online site — this is something that few marketers know, which means you will be ahead of the game!

In the search for more back links, we often forget that by submitting your RSS feed to different directories, one can increase one’s site’s exposure level exponentially in this way.

Social bookmarking tools have also been popular for a couple of years now. However, “their effectiveness has declined a lot”, in many SEO expert’s opinions but not in mine and I have the proof.

Note that the above paragraph talks specifically about or at Social bookmarking links and not the automated bookmarking tools. It is said that some tools leave footprints that are a like real stop signs to the technical guys that invent the google search algorithms.

There is significantly more to seo tools, so don’t stop with this article.

Remember that rewards rarely come fast in this area – so be persistent!
