SEO Tools for all occasions
Thursday, 17 July 2008
Digg!

It's about the pool player, not the cue

This morning the most wondrous Ann Smarty posted a exceedingly groovy list of tools that rock!

Not to be left out I thought I would take this opportunity to mention we have a pretty good list here on the trail as well…. See our SEO Tools section for more (80+ tools in total).

It is important to note that tools are only as good as the practitioner using them. What that means is your methods and theories of SEO dictate which tools and how you use them. A tool alone cannot make your programs better – that is up to you.

I would also note that I advise using more than one tool for any part of your research and development as trusting a single source for data is often a recipe for failure… now go and start playing!!

David Temple  - And picking the right cue     |2008-07-17 08:26:57
I agree whole heartedly with your analogy or is it an allegory? Anyway just like a good pool player has his own cue stick based on length, weight and diameter, so should you pick your seo tools.

What works for one person, might not for another and perhaps that's why there are so many tools.

Hi David... that was certainly the point that came to mind. The approach dictates the data one mines and thus each person should have a preferred set IMO.

..and I believe it's an analogy...
Ann Smarty  - Thanks :)     |2008-07-17 10:34:22
Thanks for the link! I didn't know about your collection - I will definitely check it out.

Hiya Ann you tool queen you!! I started a post last year and keep adding/deleting as I go.

Your wonderous post had me thinking that I don't mention the collection too often... thanks for the goodies... some new ones for me as well!!
