  4. Scott Says:

    Thanks for the list… some of these I had seen and use already but many I had not, so thanks for putting them down. Under buzz the Google Alerts are one I have used for quite a while and was surprised to hear the other day that not as many people use this great free tool as I thought, I certainly has its place on my list. Thanks again, Scott

  5. James Mann Says:

    I have been reading a lot of posts on your blog and many other blogs. I have found a ton of great information but for today I must say you have the best list going.

    I gave you a Digg and a Stumble.

    Thanks for these links. I have seen quite a few but it’s always great to have even more to add to my own lists.

  35. Jon Says:

    I’d like to suggest 2 more additions to the Stats category:

    WebSTAT provides a free and paid tier for real-time tracking of stats on your site.

    nextSTAT a robust SaaS statistics offering that provides a free 2-week trial and reasonable pricing.

    Also, why would you recommend Google Analytics to people? Do you hate them? There’s a reason that Google Analytics is free — they use the data they collect to further their evil purposes. Don’t contribute to the empire. Just remember this: Urchin OnDemand used to cost $495/mo and now Google is giving it away free! You have to know they’re getting at least that much value out of it still…it just comes in a different way.

  42. Sofna Says:

    Thanks for the tools. I have one I would like to add that I have never seen anywhere else. It is in beta right now, so do not add too many links right now, just add your exchanges and paid links. This tool is a backlink watcher. You do not even have to check your links, just login to the software and it will tell you if someone removed your link, changed the anchor text, or even if someone added a no follow. This way you do not have to worry about it.
