Another Tid-Bit

With the way that the economy is going, more and more people have found themselves with free time on their hands to do things they never had the time for before: spending more time with family, cleaning out the garage, getting to all those movies you haven't had the chance to watch. But as for me, I've taken the time to really begin focusing my efforts on utilizing the internet for money making!

Firefox SEO Tools

At the start of the summer I decided to dedicate more time to making this site more successful. I am always talking about getting more free, and targeted traffic to you site, and realizing that search engines, especially google and yahoo, are the cornerstones to receiving more free targeted traffic I set out to learn SEO (search engine optimization). In order for you website/blog to take advantage of search engine traffic, you must optimize and make it stand out in the eyes of search engines.

Well, I am just a rookie at SEO but one of the things I learned was how to look out for my competition. What that means, is that I would visit sites that were similar to my own and check
out their information. Being able to look at the site stats is a good way to compare it to your own and see where you stand. In this endeavor, Firefox makes it extremely easy. They offer two extensions:

SEO for Firefox . This plugin grabs information about the website that you are currently viewing including: PR, Technorati Rank, and Alexa rank just to name a few of the features. More than that, it highlights no follow links on the page as well. There a lot other really helpful features that allows you to check up on other websites and see where they are successful so that you are able to mold your site into a picture of SEO success. The other tool that I find really handy and helpful is:

Alexa Sparky . This little bar sits in the bottom section of your firefox window, when you visit a web page it gives you the information that you would receive if you were to go to alexa and check the traffic statistics. It gives you traffic trends including reach and rank of the page you are on and its all delivered in a small toolbar. In the picture here I am on Google's home page. it gives me Google's rank, #2, and the traffic trend over the past three months.

Both of these tools are customizable so that you and tweak the setting so that the plug-ins perform exactly how you would like them to. For anyone that is new to SEO and wants to have some quick information about the sites that they visit and also about their internet equals/competition should really consider downloading these plugins. And the best part is they are 100% absolutely FREE!
