Aaron Wall recently sent out a newsletter, which included some useful bits and pieces. He has created a couple SEO tools, which he is allowing us all to use. These tools allow you to use a wide array of keyword research, competitive research, and link research tools conveniently from one location. The tools are very easy to embed into a website, making them extra useful.

These Google Gadgets are lightweight XML programs that allow you to place interactive data inside web pages. This technology is useful for researching compact data points like site age, related keywords, or the quantity of inbound links pointing at a page…all the types of data points that are included in SEO for Firefox and a few that are not. If you prefer to have this type of data accessible from a toolbar we also created numerous SEO buttons for the Google Toolbar.

The list of tools is as follows:

  • Keyword Research & Competitive Analysis Tools Gadget
    • Allows you to use all the major free keyword research tools from one location.
    • Links off to additional paid keyword research tools.
    • Links to popular competitive analysis tools and lesser known useful competitive analysis tools.
  • Link Analysis Google Gadget
    • Shows you the different ways to search for backlinks from the major search engine.
    • Allows you to see fresh citations from blogs via Google Blog Search and Technorati.
    • Shows reviews and citations from Del.icio.us, Digg, StumbleUpon, and Wikipedia.
    • Links off to additional tools.
