Search Engine Site Loyalty and The Search Toolbar...

A recent Internet search site survey performed by iProspect shows that today’s web users are in fact loyal to the free search engine site of their choice.

The statistics show that the Google, Yahoo and MSN search site toolbars are close in the running. But it really depends upon which search site you use on a regular basis as to which search toolbar you choose.

AltaVista at your Fingertips

The AltaVista Toolbar is free, customizable and gives you the research tools to perform searches and translations from your browser anywhere on the web. Download your AltaVista Toolbar Today!

Google Deskbar... Google has done it again. It has come up with another new, interesting, simple and useful innovation and made its competitors look lazy and sloppy.

Meta Tag Tools
• ABAKUS Meta Tag Generator
The most important meta tags are covered with this generator. Simply copy and paste the generated code just below your <title> tag in the <head> area of your web page.

Keyword/Website Analysis
•ABAKUS Topword V.1
The Topword keyword analysis tool will analyse a complete web page and count keyword occurrences as well as keyword phrases (number in brackets) . Excellent for post optimization and competitor analysis.

Domain Check
• ABAKUS Domain Check
Domain Check will simultaneously check .com, co.uk, .net, .org, .biz und .info for domain name availability. In addition there is a built in whois function to check domain registration details.

Keyword Domain
• ABAKUS Keyword Domain
This tool is a fantastic way to find available domain names through the mixing of up to four given keywords with and without hyphens. Automatically lists those domains available and those not (also with whois functionality).

Keyword Research
• Wordtracker
A free trial is available with Wordtracker.com. Wordtracker possibly the largest keyword database out there, and the keyword research there is often fruitful.

• Overture Keyword Suggestion
Overture (the Pay per Click provider) has on its website a tool for basic keyword research. Their database is growing with each passing month and it makes for an excellent quick look up.

• Espotting Keyword Vorschlag
Espotting also have a basic keyword research tool which in some ways is better than Overture's as it doesnt have the same word stemming problem.

Keyword Density Tools
• Keyworddensity.com
One of my personal favorites for keyword density research. Raw Data Comparison is what I find to be the most useful. Plus the fact you can add more than one domain per query is very useful for comparison purposes.

• Webjectives Keyword Analyser
The good thing with this tool is it breaks down the densitys of certain HTML elements such as title density, body density etc. It gives a more detailed picture of how the total keyword density is constructed.

Establish who's Linking to whom
Below are the queries you need to put in the search boxes of the given search engine in order to establish who is linking to whom. Clicking on the search engine link opens a new window.

• Altavista
link:domain.de -url:domain.de

• Google
link:www.domain.de

• AllTheWeb (Lycos.de)
link.all:domain.de

• AOL / MSN
linkdomain:domain.de -domain:domain.de

Where of course domain.de is your domain name, or any other domain for that matter.

Search Engine Spider Simulators
It is always wise to check a webpage to see what a search engine robot can see. Below a couple of tools that allow you to do this.

• Search Engine Spider Simulator
• Lynx Viewer
