As some of you may know I have an art/teacher
background - it's what I used to do before
I got into online marketing.

Having an art training has helped me tremendously
but probably not in the way you're thinking.
It has nothing to do with graphic design or
designing websites... but rather an artist
training gives you the tendency of always
looking beneath the surface of things.

In order to understand or draw an object/form
you have to know what's underneath the structure.
Same goes for the web.

In order to really understand the Internet, you
have to know what's beneath the surface. What
makes it run...

With the web and online marketing, SEO is everything.

Unless you go the PPC route and pay for your
traffic, you must know SEO and you must know how
it works in order to get those top rankings. Because
of my background from the get-go I was extremely
interested in what actually made the Internet work.

It boiled down to two things: keywords and search
engines. I knew I had to master those two main
elements to succeed online no matter what the topics
of my sites was going to be.

I believe all webmasters must learn and master those
two things in order to succeed online. My other
strong belief - if I could do it, anyone can.

Over the years I have built up a passable knowledge
on SEO due mainly thru my art training and my constant
searching underneath the surface of things. The daily
running of two websites on Internet Marketing Tools
played a small part as well!

Along the way I have used countless SEO tactics and
tools to try and increase my keyword rankings. Here's
a short list of my most helpful Free SEO tools that
I use on a daily basis in running my 9 or 10 websites:


1. SEO Book Keyword Research Tool

http://tools.seobook.com/keyword-tools/seobook/

This tells how many searches are made each day
for my targeted keywords. Invaluable information
to have with SEM - Search Engine Marketing.

2. Detecting Online Commercial Intention

This MSN tool tells me how the probability (percentage)
someone clicking my chosen keywords are likely to buy.
Another great tool to use if you're trying to earn
revenue from your sites. Higher the percentage,
the more likely you will make a sale.

3. SeoQuake for Mozilla Firefox

http://www.seoquake.com

This is an addon for Firefox and gives you
invaluable SEO information on a site while
surfing. All the important info is here:
Google PageRank, Numbers of links, Traffic rank,
Whois, Keyword Density...


4. Google Alerts

http://www.google.com/alerts


This is a great SEO tool if you use it to track
and build your links. Just create Google Alerts
for all your major keyword phrases and Google will
keep you updated on current links being formed/indexed
on your keywords. Also great for tracking articles,
urls, competitors...


5. WordPress

http://www.wordpress.com


This free blogging software lets you place
very SEO friendly blogs on your sites.
Another invaluable SEO tool for improving
your keyword rankings. Blogger and Bloglines
are other alternatives you can use.


Now, I use more SEO tools than this but these
are the top five. Try some of these and see
if it can improve your keyword rankings like
they did mine. No harm in trying.



....

Now if you're still at the site creation stage
and you haven't built your site yet - here's
another great free tool I told you about last
week from Brad Callen:





This is BlinkWeb - create a site in the blink
of an eye. If you want an easy way to create web
pages this is the tool for you.









Kind Regards,

Titus
