Your must have SEO plugins for firefox

We all know that plugins make everybody's lives easier, so I thought I'd share my favorite SEO plugins and see if anybody else has any I am missing.

First up we have Kgen I haven't used this that much but basically you visit a site and it'll tell you which keywords are 'strong'. This is determined by how many times a keyword is mentioned on a site and different places hold different weights. (E.g a keyword in the title is worth more than a paragraph.) I find it useful for keyword research and what not.

SEOquake , this shows you heaps of handy information in the search results themselves. (PR, links, how many pages are indexed etc.) Also if you visit a site you can have it show these details in the top left hand corner. You can also use it to highlight keywords/show keyword density and heaps of other cool stuff.

Searchstatus - This shows you google PR and alexa rank in the bottom right corner. You can also use it to highlight keywords/show keyword density. It overlaps a lot with SEOquake, but you can have it highlight links which are nofollow which I find extremely useful. (Much quicker than looking in firefug for the nofollow attribute.)

 

Thanks for sharing , I am already using SEOQUake and SearchStatus , I will give try to Keygen

Thanks

Try "source chart" - it gives you a super easy page source view of any website

 

before I'm using Inventory Overture for keyword searches per month, and since overture gave up this tool because of a certain problem. Now I'm using a keyword searching tool which is based in top 4 search engine, which are Google, Yahoo, MSN and Ask!

 

I also have IE View. Helps to see what a page looks like in IE by right-clicking on the Firefox page, rather than opening another browser tab/window.

 

Thanks for the information I will try the Kqen

 

They are some AWESOME tools

Thanks mate

 

Dang, thanks for that. Exactly what I wanted. Is there a version which will do the same for safari?

 

I'm going to have to check out the IE view as well. I hate wasting time to open internet explorer when I'm editing a site.

 

I installed it and just uninstalled it. There's nothing special about it. It just opens a page up in IE.

An add-on that I is good for developers is "Web Developer". It has a lot of useful tools.

 

Searchstatus
I'll try this one.

 

I have just launched Link Diagnosis Firefox Extension. It lets you see:

Most of the backlinks that site have + lots of interesting data like:

* see Google Pagerank of every backlink
* see Anchor text of every backlink
* see if links are no-follow
* see most popular anchor texts
* see charts with breakdown of pagerank and link types
* CSV exports

See the link in my signature.

 

I have Web Developer and SEOpen. Just about everything you need with these two.

 

Hi ive downloaded Kgen but cant find it, where do i switch it on or whatever i should do?

 

I will give a try to Kgen, But I really love Seo for Firefox & Search status plugins for Firefox. Now really cannot live without these plugins.

 

go View > Sidebar > KGen

 

Thanks Husam, very helpful.

 

I currently use SEOquake and searchstatus, havn't tried kgen.

 

I hope Site Information Tool Firefox extension will be useful for you too.

 

thanks for the plugins good post
