I have made a list of my favourite on-line tools that I use to analyse websites. They help me to explore in depth the structure of pages. They show me the errors that I have made during the development of the site. I also find lots of tips for on-page and off-page search engine optimization there. The best thing about these instruments is that, they are available for free use, and you are able to take advantage of this favourable fact. :)
You know that the most important thing for successful SEO optimization is a quality unique content. If the search engines find duplicate content on your sites, it can cost you the indexing of your pages.
01The first web tool that I want to show you is "Duplicate Content Checker".
Thanks to this tool will quickly learn about the problems with duplicate content. It tests for a shortcoming in settings on your servers or omissions in creating unique content.
In the photo below clearly shows that you forget to forward from "www.", which in some search engines are interpreted as multiple sites with identical content.
The solution is to add an instruction for redirection in your htaccess file.
#
# mod_rewrite in use
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.itprism\.com
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://itprism.com/$1 [R=301,L]
02Next of my favourite tools is "Markup Validation Service".
The valid HTML source code is not importance for search engines, but is very important for me.
Whenever I see a green superscription "This document was successfully checked as XHTML 1.0 Transitional!", invade at me a wonderful feeling of a job well done.
03Next is "Google Trends" - one of the most useful tools from Google.
Google Trends shows the frequency of keywords in a period of three years. So learn when is the best time of my publications
