Google Keyword Planner, Google Analytics, Google Webmaster Tools, SEO Quake, ahref, Majestic SEO, Market Samurai, ubersuggest. These are some SEO tools I use. Most are free. Some are paid but I'd say that it's well worth it.

You can also try to contact the website that contains links pointing to your site. If the owner does not respond, you can also try the link disavow tool provided by Google. However, I should warn you that some SEO experts say that using the disavow tool may not be really helpful. I suggest you...

Google+ has been the center of some of the most recent debates and studies in the SEO world. Many experts say that the number of +1s directly influence your rankings. Some say that sharing your posts on Google+ helps boost your rankings because it basically functions as a backlink. Aside from...

To give you a better understanding, I will provide an example. If you search for "acne", you will very likely see pages from established health websites, detailing information about acne, its causes and treatment. You may not be able to find what you are exactly looking for in those pages, so...

Not all single page websites are terrible and spammy. I personally know this particular single page website which looks really great and ranks number one in SERP. You can even search for single page website examples and see how amazing some of them are. As for rankings, yes it's definitely...

There's no doubt that doing customization is a lot easier on Wordpress compared to Blogger. But I think it has vastly improved over the years and if you're familiar with HTML, it's really not that hard. And about looking old, there are many free templates for Blogger out there that actually look...

Social media is becoming increasingly popular among Internet marketers. That's not because it's a great way to find leads and increase website traffic, but also because there's a lot of talk going on in the world of SEO that Google and other search engines may factor in a site's social media...

It's really hard to say that Blogger isn't optimized to rank well. Actually, I disagree with this statement. I have used Blogger for quite some time now and I'd have to say that it's very easy to rank for longtail keywords using this platform. And that's without using any SEO plugin.

Are your sites currently ranking well? Are you doing well traffic-wise? In my case, all my sites aren't doing well. I've been hit back in February and I still haven't fully recovered. I've done quite a lot since that time, but unfortunately I'm still unable to bring back the great amount of...

I couldn't see how the Hummingbird update could affect PageRank. From what I understand, it's meant to make the search algorithm more human like, especially when returning longtail search queries.

You can also go to Layout and add adsense blocks to your liking. There are plenty of tutorials out there discussing this topic. Do a simple search in Google and you will find what you need.

To be honest, I couldn't think of any feature that I would like to be added on Blogger. It works just fine for me. Perhaps this is because I have used the platform for many years and I have learned the ins and outs of it.

I agree that the comparison to blogger needs to stop. It has been discussed a million times now. Wordpress may be the best, but that doesn't mean Blogger or other CMS are absolute junk. I know of some Internet marketers who still earn decent income from their blogger blogs. The most important...

I usually visit Pat Flynn's SmartPassiveIncome. He offers some really useful tips and even shares his earnings. He also has this really helpful niche site duel where he and another webmaster try to outrank each other for a certain keyword. I also like nichepursuits.com.

If you haven't tried Bing lately, I suggest you give it a try. Bing is now a reliable search engine, serving results that would satisfy your query. Google is still the king of search engines, but Bing is slowly getting quite a huge share of the market. You would still have a better experience...
