Good morning/afternoon everyone,

A very broad question which I am very curious about, with regards to SEO tools they change year on year, if not month on month, the latest technique, fad, strategy and tool...but what I want to know is which tools both free/paid can you not live without?

Which do you find so useful or so affordable/beneficial that you just can't say no, you cannot stop using it. Now this is mainly for those SEO enthusiasts, SEO consultants and so on but please everyone pitch in.

I shall start:

Google Keyword Tool - heck it's free, useful and darn right addictive
Market Samurai - to further the Google keyword tool above, you have Market Samurai, amazing tool a little slow at times but very effective and always updated so well maintained.
SEO Moz Pro - I've found my account there to be very useful for tracking campaigns, doing competitor analysis and so on so fourth...

Now it's your turn...what am I missing out on, what are you missing out on, share your thoughts.

Scrapebox and Market Samurai. The keyword tool could replace MS, but I like having a wealth of features in one package.

There's a lot of other tools, but these two would be at the top of my list.

  I wish I could automate Scrapebox. It runs on my VPS probably 12+ hours a day. And that's only because I have to check it every once and awhile.

  SEO powersuite in general, especially rank checker and spyglass,
  
  been stuck on page 17 now in a competitive keyword for a while now, used spyglass to find all the first pages top links, dropped a few here and there, woke up and im now on page 12, going to be dropping alot more hah.
  
  Rank checker just stops me from clicking through the pages of google in anxiety to see whether ive gone up or down.
  
  Thanks

For me Seoquake plugin is very convenient. Now I can't imagine how I've been living without it before.I take info about the page for the heap of parameters. To research competitors and finding keywords I use semrush. Senuke is in use for backlinking.

Market Samurai
Google Keyword Tool (incase MS doesn't work)
Scrape box
SenukeX
SEO PowerSuite

And most important tool for me is "My Brain".If you don't have a strategy to use the tools for the max or atleast you get the investment back then whatever the tool you buy is of no use.
