Internet Marketing Tools (FREE) – The Top 12 (Part 2)

In my last post, I shared with you the first part of the top 12 Internet marketing tools I use in my business.

In this post, let’s finish where we left off from the first post and give you the second part of the top 12 Internet marketing tools.

Stock Xchng

This is a great resource where you can obtain free graphics to use in your website/blog. Though the image resolution for the graphics is limited (meaning if you’re looking for high resolution images you may have a problem getting them here), you have to keep in mind that it’s free.

Fortunately, if you need graphics only for web purposes without actually printing them, this is an excellent place to grab your free graphics.

Almost all the images I’ve used in this blog are taken from here.

VLC Media Player

This is an awesome player that plays all kind of media files. Want to play mp3s and flv files? No problem. Want to play other audio and video formats such as MPEG-2, MPEG-4, DivX, or MPEG-1? This player can play it all.

No more downloading and installing multiple video programs just to be able to watch the different video files on your PC. No more headaches!

Just get VLC Media Player and you’re all set.

FileZilla

This useful piece of software allows you to upload, download, and transfer files to and from your PC and your server (hosting).

FileZilla is pretty easy to use and its menu is intuitive, making it relatively easy to use. Even if you’re a beginner trying to use this software, you should be able to get yourself up and running fast.

DownThemAll

DownThemAll is a Firefox plugin that downloads all your files in one, easy-to-read and easy-to-manage location.

In addition, with this plugin you’ll be able to increase your download speed. According to DownThemAll, this software can increase your download speed at up to 400%.

Last but not least, you can also pause and resume downloads with the simple click of a button.

I hope by now you see how powerful Firefox is, and the almost infinite number of plugins available, all aiming to make our lives easier and get things done faster in a more efficient manner.

Still not using Firefox as your default browser? You SHOULD NOW.

Skype

This is a free chat program, much like Yahoo Messenger and MSN Messenger. You can chat via instant text messaging and Skype phone.

When you have a lot of things you want to convey to your business partners or team members, and you want to communicate to them FAST, then you can use Skype phone to call them on their PCs (free), or call their landlines (for a low tariff).

Furthermore, for an affordable fee, you can also get a landline number. When people call this number, they’ll be directed to your Skype account.

With Skye, communication becomes EASY and fast.

Copyscape

Copyscape is an online tool designed to check if your website content has been illegally copied or plagiarized by unscrupulous people.

How can you use this in your online business?

Let me give you one good example.

Suppose you outsource article writing to freelancers. After you’ve got your articles from them, upload your articles to your server. Then go to Copyscape and check to see if there are any duplicate results. If there are, chances are that your freelance writer is plagiarizing other people’s content, which is NOT good.

So there it is the top 12 FREE Internet marketing tools that I use in my business. Thanks to these tools, I’ve been able to save a lot of time and effort. I really can’t imagine running my business without these tools.

What about you? What Free Internet marketing tools are you using in your Internet business? If you have one and it’s not covered here, please share with us in a comment below so that all of us can benefit. Thanks in advance!

Internet Marketing Tools (FREE) – The Top 12 (Part 1)

I’d like to share with you the top 12 Free Internet marketing tools that I use in my Internet business. Simply put, I can’t afford NOT to have them. Without them, my business will be in a mess!

Below is a list of the top 6 Free Internet business tools in no particular order. The remaining 6 will covered in part 2 of this series.

Last Pass

Lastpass is an excellent free program where you can store all your online passwords into one neat little place on the Internet (so that you can access it anytime and from anywhere). In my Internet business I have so many different usernames and passwords that I couldn’t simply remember off the top of my head.

Yes I could create an excel spreadsheet to record all the different usernames and passwords (and I’ve done that), but having a safe online place to store them would be a lot better as this would save me a lot of time and effort when trying to access my private area from a remote location.

Previously, if I didn’t bring my laptop with me (which contains the master password excel file), then I can’t login to my private area. But with Last Pass, all the problems are eliminated.

Yes, there may be dangers in storing your usernames and passwords in a single location, but so far my data has always been kept intact and safe. It saves me A LOT of time and effort, so why not use it?

SEO Quake

This is a Firefox plugin that actually tells you some very valuable and useful data. No more manually trying to figure out a particular web page’s Alexa rank, Google PageRank, how many pages are indexed in the search engines, how many backlinks it has, when the domain was first registered, etc.

You can get all these data without almost doing anything as they are automatically shown to you when the web page loads.

Valuable and useful data retrieval is just eyeballs away.

Google Adwords Keyword Tool

This tool is actually meant for Adwords advertisers to gauge how popular a keyword phrase is and to expand on keywords that are related to the base keywords advertisers are bidding on.

However, even though this tool is intended for Adwords advertisers, you can also utilize it to:

1. Guest estimate the demand for a particular keyword phrase (in other words, how many times the keyword phrase is searched for every month)

2. Find related keyword phrases. For example, if you type in “tennis shoes” into the tool, it will return related keyword phrases such as “red tennis shoes”, “professional tennis shoes”, and so on.

Download Helper

With this Firefox plugin you can download every online video that you encounter to your hard drive. Not only that, you can also convert the default .flv file type to .wmv or other popular video extensions.

Can’t download YouTube videos? Not anymore with this plugin!

Also, allow me to reveal one neat trick. This is especially useful if you spend a lot of time watching training videos.

Who has the time to watch 6 or 12-hours video courses? In this day and age, everyone wants instant results!

With Download Helper, your 6-hours video course can be easily consumed in 3 hours. Simply convert the default .flv file to .wmv file.

Then open Windows Media Player >> click “Now Playing” >> click “Enhancements” >> click “Play Speed Settings”.

A speed bar will appear and you can watch your video at a speed that’s comfortable for you (for me, it’s usually 1.5 to 2x speed depending on how fast the person in the video is speaking).

A major time saver!

Google Alerts

This is a handy tool by Google that notifies you by email on topics that you want to monitor on. Everytime Google finds an entry (web page, news) related to your query (determined by the keywords you enter into Google Alerts), you’ll be notified by email.

You might be thinking “That’s all fine and dandy Welly, but how am I going to utilize this tool”?

Let’s take this post for example. This post is about the top Free Internet business tools. Now I can go ahead and go to Google Alerts and enter “free Internet business tools” as the keyword phrase I want to monitor.

Whenever Google finds anything related to this phrase, I’ll automatically be notified by email. I can then go to the original web page/blog that talks about “free Internet business tools” and leave my comment there, saying that they can get a comprehensive list of the top 14 Free Internet business tools. Of course, I’d be leaving valuable comments so as not to appear spammy.

Google Analytics

This is also a Free program provided by Google that tracks how your website is doing in terms of the number of visitors, how they came to know about your site (from Google, article directories, some other sites, etc), how long they stay on your site, what’s your conversion rate, and so on.

You need to know these metrics if you want to truly maximize your visitor value. I’ve talked about this in this post some time ago.

All my sites are tracked by Google Analytics and you should give it a try as well if you haven’t yet.

We’ll take a look at the next 6 Free Internet marketing tools in my next post. Stay tuned as I’m very sure you’ll benefit a lot from these tools.
