Which is the best SEO tools for beginners ?

[mosdef]

Saw a few recommendations for google Analytics here. They have a good service but they have a history of just deleting people's information and taking no responsibility for it. I know because it happened to me, and a google search for "google analytics account disappeared" will show you that this is a very common problem. If you use analytics and your account disappears, CALL THEM IMMEDIATELY. When an account dissappears, there is about a two week window before they actually delete its data. if you call within that period it should be fine.

For me Google analytics and Webmaster has been the best tool for analysing my Website and Blogs.

A good way of increasing SEO is through squidoo. Its just like a blog but it makes your posts much more exposed and it is a PR7 site, good rankings in google so much more likely to be seen. you can include valuable information from your business mind to build value for potential customers.

I agree to you that squidoo is a good site for articles and blogs. I have been working in this site for more than 3 months and it is responding very good. It is really useful site.

What's the purpose of a tool? To help you get things done.

In the case of SEO tools for beginners, it would be to help them get "SEO done".

Search Engine Optimisation (not online marketing, social media marketing, or pay per click) tools, therefore are going to help you optimise for search engines, aka -improving your traffic, therefore your rankings on organic search.

There are tools to tell you how you are doing currently (historical reporting).

There are tools to tell you what you are doing wrong with your site (site audit tools) and tools to tell you what you are doing wrong with your backlinks (backlink analysis tools).

There are tools to tell you what you could be doing (keyword and competitor analysis tools).

How long is a piece of string?

None of these tools are worth having if you don't have enough knowledge. Tools are designed to help make your life easier, by automating what you already know how to do, and thus saving you time.

Tools are not the same as education. They are not going to impart the wisdom of the sages. In fact, if you choose the wrong tools, they'll steer you completely down the wrong path.

None of the tools are a replacement for education and experience. They won't tell you that those other 10 copies of the site, running on the same server, but different domain names, are poisoning one another.

Beginner tools aren't going to tell you that your site was hammered by a Penguin, or that your suffering from a bad Panda. If you do get lucky enough to find one that will overlay your WMT data with a Google updates calendar, they won't tell you which of the backlinks were the cause, which pages were dupe or over-optimised, won't tell you how to know whether you should do removal requests/disavow or whether you need to do a reconsideration request.

Yes, a beginning SEO practitioner must start somewhere and move from nowhere to somewhere, and then onward, upward.... Shoving a tool in the hands of a beginner isn't going to make them better at their job - just faster.

The best tools are training and testing. Read about it, think about it, try it out, then believe that which is useful and forget the rest.

SEO is an important part of online presence. Can anyone share with me, the best SEO tools for beginners?

According to me SEO spyglass and search status are the best tools for beginners.

Okay...

We're using Moz analytics, we're listed on most of the big directory sites, we're on Google+, Facebook, and Twitter (with a decent following), we have a regular blog, which I'm listing on big sites like Reddit, but nothing seems to be happening...

Our domain authority according to Moz's Open Site Explorer is only 19, with only 1 backlink (which is from our own blog), so it seems what I've done so far has had no effect.

We're desperately trying not to use any SEO programmes - we're avoiding black hat methods as much as possible - so I'm struggling to see what the next step is. Any ideas?

1. Publish content on the blog that is so fascinating, so remarkable, so unabashedly outstanding that people feel compelled to bookmark it, tweet about it and share with their friends, neighbours and relatives.

2. Rinse, lather, repeat step 1.

 

[WallpaperInk]

Thanks, webgeek.

I'm quite new to all this, so I think I might be getting ahead of myself. I'm expecting results back in weeks, when actually I should probably be setting a much longer time scale.

I'll concentrate on the blog for now, and hopefully things will pick up

 

[webgeek]

If you blog 3 to 5 times per week, targeting one phrase per post, each one should theoretically pick up 10 to 50 visitors per month.

The value comes when you compound this over time.

Be patient, be giving to the community, be remarkable - and you'll be successful.

 

[WallpaperInk]

Thanks again.

We're managing a good post every day so far, mixing things up with text, galleries, infograohics, etc., and we've moved up to 12th place on Google for our keywords, so hopefully things will start compounding soon!

Hi...

You need to set up the content...in seo Content is King...thats is the basic Tool.

[WallpaperInk]

Thanks guys.

It does seem everywhere I go I find the 'content is king' mantra, which I suppose is how it should be - it's a lot fairer to the smaller sites who can't afford big SEO budgets.

It's just a pain in the proverbial having to write something brilliant every day!

It depends on who you talk to, and what your business aims and marketing objectives are.

Great content will make no difference to google (as all it really wants is unique content to index) and you won't get ranked any higher in the SERPs (directly) because of it, but it will obviously make a difference to your potential leads, and maybe help you to convert more of them into customers.

Just don't fall into the whole 'Build it and they will come' trap, as 9 times out of 10 you will end up languishing on page 10, while others are out making money - there is nothing fair about the way that google ranks sites.

It's just a pain in the proverbial having to write something brilliant every day!

You totally don't need to!

Spend one day writing something good, and then spend the other 4 days promoting it where your target audience hang out.
