Web tools on a shoestring budget .

I wanted to share some links to what I consider to be invaluable tools .

The first link is one I'm sure everyone is familiar with , Alexa.com .

Alexa is mainly a site that ranks websites on Google but they offer many services .

One tool they offer free is the Alexa toolbar which is extremely useful . This toolbar gives the ranking of any site your on along with the link count .

When you download Alexa toolbar you can check site rank globally and in the us , see how many links and view links to any site , see what's hot on the web in real time and much more .

This is not an affiliate link http://www.alexa.com/ the only reason I'm sharing is because I use this and just had to share it .

Another link I love gives me graphics and tools that I find indispensible . If you've ever needed a picture or some cool graphics for your website and searched the internet endlessly looking for that perfect pic only to attempt to get it then find out it's going to cost xxxxx amount to get it you know why this site is great .

Need to check your sites rank but don't have the tool or everyone wants to charge for it .

Then you need this link and don't take my word for it check it out , there is no charge for looking . http://www.yourwebgraphics.com/ I think you'll love this and http://www.searchenginegenie.com you can access Search Engine Genie from Your Web Graphics .com also .

I use SEG to check rank , backlinks to my site , html errors and much more .

None of the links in this article are affiliate links and I don't get compensation for them .

What I do get is a warm fuzzy feeling knowing that I may have helped someone who is struggling .
