Let’s start with the first: Google suggest. This is a little known but powerful tool that will find keywords for you based on the words you input. It looks just like the normal google search engine page except that as you type google “guesses” what your next letter will be -like the predictive text feature of cell phones- and serve up ten popularity-based keywords and their total search numbers for a given period of time. What’s it good for? Keyword searching based on Google’s own search records! You can even drill down on any keyword to find a sub-set of very useful keywords and their search numbers.
The second tool is Google copyscape. We all know web copy “stealing” is rampant on the web. Outright copying of pages is wrong of course and can land you in serious trouble but it is a known fact that many marketers have and use a “swipe” file made up of other marketers web copy that has potential to be used in one’s own web copy. I don’t know about you but I don’t want my web copy to be used illegally by anyone! (If you really want it just ask). Ok so how can Google copyscape help? This is a free service from copyscape.com, you simply put the copyscape html code on your pages (which is actually the copyscape.com logo. This warns users to not copy your pages). Visit copyscape.com and input your own web site .com name and copyscape (now owned by google) will scan the entire Internet for any duplication of your web pages copy. This is a quick way to find who is using your material without your permission. What you do after that is your business.
The third tool can help you get links back your main site and with a little luck get you’ll get listed quickly by Google itself. Go to Google.pages. And after you sign up, you put up simple web pages using the on line web page maker software (it’s actually very easy to use). The trick is to put a link somewhere on those pages back to your main web site. Because it is run and operated by Google itself, you will get spidered very fast and with that link back to your web site you should get a bump in your main web sites rank. Brilliant!
