    If you're looking for tools checkout the review section on this forum. there are plenty of reviews on the three main paid for tools. Keyword elite 2, micro niche finder and market samuri.

    I've got keyword elite 2 with is very good however many of the reviews I've read ( after my pruchase) say market samuri is best. I've tried the trial and I must admit It's pretty good.

    i would say that adwords keyword tool is one of the top SEO tools to use.

    some sort of back link checker is also handy for checking the competition.

    I use Google Insights for surface research, because it is free and a lot of valuable information can be found there. Market Samurai is the best place to go in my opinion for in-depth research.
