Hey SEOs. You know when you’ve had that client for a year, the really niche one who deals in handling data for logistics companies specialising in shipping dog food, but only for Rottweilers? You’re not doing badly, but you’re losing inspiration. How many tangents can you take? How many ‘off the wall’ guest blogs can you come up with? And link-building, well… it’s mind-sapping if anything.
I want to keep this post as short and actionable as possible; do you have any tools that do just one thing really well? You know the kind I mean, those plugins and hack projects that you may only use once a year but when you do use them, you really appreciate them. I’ve gathered a bunch of these (some I use everyday) and I want to share them with the community. Could I ask a...

I love SEO tools. I’m sort of a pack-rat when it comes to Google Docs tools and Excel add-ins. I went absolutely nuts when Tom Critchlow posted his Google Docs SEO tutorial on distilled. Since then, I’ve rolled a few tools of my own and collected pretty much anything to do with SEO and spreadsheets since then.
I am a Romanian. I am proud of it, despite of what the world thinks about Romanians. What people think about Romanians could be influenced by Google. Google is a voice in the world, which influence in a positive or negative way, even if we do not like it.

Servers go wrong, downtime happens, bad code gets pushed to production. All of these things can impact your SEO performance badly. In most cases, the sooner you know, the smaller the damage. This week, I run through a bunch of suggestions and ideas for monitoring the various things that could go wrong.
In early 2010 I shared a keyword tool I developed called Keyword Eye here on SEOmoz. I received some great feedback as a result of doing that. It's changed quite a bit since then, it had a major revamp, there were ups and downs, trials and tribulations, so thought I'd take this opportunity to share it again with readers who may remember the original post and new readers alike.
In late August, I gave a free webinar called Link Building with Open Site Explorer. As is usual, I couldn't limit myself to just a bunch of Moz tools (always feel a bit too self-promotional when I do that), so I ended up covering more than a few others as well. I also ran through a link ...
I'm embarrassed to say that sometimes, I really don't do a good job of putting SEOmoz's best foot forward. Case-in-point: this past week, our SERPs Analysis Tool, one of the most requested, most exciting and most useful projects we've ever crafted had a new release that now includes social data in the report. ...
During the finale of the SEO Pro Seminar in London, Rand presented on reverse engineering the rankings delivered by the search engines. In my opinion this was the biggest ‘take away’ as this represented a practical approach to what we do every day – trying to understand the weighting of the important elements in SEO. As SEO’s we’re continually facing t...
Over the past few months, I've been preparing a guide with the tentative title, Excel for SEOs: Lessons for Aspiring Ninjas. I've embarked on this great journey because sometime during the #Mozinar back in September I decided that my Excel abilities were far too limited, especially compared to all the smarty pants that were giving great presentations and advice about data analy...
