Although we are focused on Reputation Management, much of what we do includes SEO.  So I thought I would list some of the sites I use to keep up to date with what’s going on in the industry.

SEOMOZ – This is a fantastic resource if you are serious about search engine optimisation.  They very much back up what they say with tests they’ve ran and are developing some great tools.

SEOCHAT – This is one of the first forums I started using 6 years ago, to be honest its good for people starting out but for advanced SEO I find the forums a bit 1 trick pony.

SEOBOOK – Again another fantastic resource in the SEO industry

My favourite SEO Tools I use:

Advanced Link and Rank Manager – By Caphyon – This software is great for watching links and seeing where the competition has  links from and new ones they add.  Great back link evolution graph to watch how your links and competition grow over time.

WEBCEO – I use this tools for watching website ranking as I find it presents the the best looking report especially for clients.

SEOQUAKE – This is a fantastic tool for quick snapshots of a website SEO

GOOGLE ALERT – This is a great tool for finding out about what people maybe saying about you also good for finding opportunities for link building from related pages.

I’m sure there are loads of other great resources out there but these are some of the ones I use a lot for just SEO.
