    Wordpress is a platform more than an 'IM TOOL' iMHO.

      So far there hasn't been one I use at all, but on the other hand there's been only one I've never heard of (so I'm doing much better than I normally do, in these threads ).

      I offer the following three (I don't use many IM tools, really, and even these three might be stretching the definition, for some people's taste, though they've all been hugely helpful to me): The Warrior Forum, TypePad and Aweber/Get Response.

      (If I have to have two more, I'll try ClickBank and Amazon.)

    5. GoogleGlobal browser addon (to check search results in different countries)
    6. LastPass (password saver)
    7. Maord.com (password creator)
    8. RegisterCompass.com (expired domain search tool)

      Seems like a general question looking at all the answers...

      If you are looking at SEO, then you'll find the Google keyword tool (for searches) and Google searches (for competition) to be good enough.

      There is another awesome keyword tool I bought here on the forum for $47 one time fee, but I can't remember what the name was...

      If you are looking for niches, the Google tool above plus ebay, amazon, clickbank, magazines.com and dummies.com would be good bets.

      For list building I use Aweber now.

    Only need one tool and that's your brain!

    You can have all the SEO tools in the world and still get nowhere, SEO tools only work if you know how to use them correctly.

    Well, for me this the top 5:

    1. SEOquake, firefox add-on, to check page rank easily
    2. Ubersugest, to find a good keywords
    3. SEMrush, to observe a competitor
    4. Tinyurl, to shorten a long link or to cloak an affiliate link
    5. Copyscape, to check plagiarism

      Numerous tools, but a few ones you should consider using..

      ReadNotify.com (no chasing clients, know when they read your email or offer..that way you know when to back off or when to re-send a personalized email) I use it every single week. Love it

      Google Calendar - the alerts are just perfect on my end, daily reviews on what needs to be done sent to your mobile or whatever you input the free tool to do, ts a great one!

      For SEO? Many, most people that are serious about SEO long term purchase SeNuke XCR, SickSubmitter, MagicSubmitter, Scrapebox..you should use them all as long as you're going to use them on your end, hiring someone or can afford them. Different benefits in every single semi-automated tool. Have fun!

    Hi Guys...

    Here are some higher level tools used only by pros within the Seo Professionals Industry and they are all web based which means you will pay monthly for the use of these pro tools.

    1) seomoz
    2) raven
    3) buzz stream
    4) ontolo
    5) webceo online
    6) analytics seo

    Raven seems to offer a lot of integration with other platforms which is a plus and minus ... so depending on what your focus is then pick the right tool that you can build your real estate online...;>)
