As an SEO I always try to stay up to date with techniques, tools and information. A few years ago I started my own Internet Marketing firm offering SEO, SEM, Analytics, Affiliate and Ad marketing services for medium to large companies and over the years I’ve compiled quite a list of SEO tools.
Within the last three weeks I’ve received over 150 requests for what tools and/or applications I use specifically for search engine optimization. Below you will find my list of tools, applications and services I use on a regular basis, I hope this information helps and keep the questions coming if they don’t! :)

If you have suggestions on SEO tools please comment on this post, I’m always looking for tools to save me time and headaches!
Over the last few months Aaron Wall from SEOBook has been making many anti-Google comments regarding SEO. Matt Cutts, Google’s leading Spam Engineer, has been faced with such topics like “SEO equals spam” and “How to buy organic ranks in Google”. I think it is important to get people involved in this discussion and try to make some sense of this. I of coarse have my own opinions regarding many of these discussions and arguments between the two but I would love to hear what you think.
I do think that Aaron Wall and his new wife are trying to stir the pot a little and get some linkbait. Aaron has a lot of knowledge in SEO and I don’t think he will just throw things out there with no thought. I also don’t think Aaron would do anything to piss Matt Cutts off considering Matt helped Aaron when Aaron was getting sued from a business/client of his…

I just registered for the Blog World Expo which is on November 7th - 9th and I am extremely excited for this conference! I am especially excited for the SEO Best Practices session on the 7th with Aaron Wall, the author of SEO Book. Blog World is in Las Vegas this year so I will be making the most of my trip by staying an extra 3 or 4 days to reflect of what I learned and the new contacts thousands of dollars I have made. ;)
If your attending be sure to leave a comment, email, or IM me and let me know; maybe we can grab drinks and shoot the shit. Although I have been heavily involved with SEO, SEM, and Online Marketing for a couple years, I am new to blogs and blogging; I think Blog World is perfect for me and I know I will make the most of it.
