In the previous article (Part 1), I shared with you the importance of Search Engine Optimization (SEO) and introduced you to some of the free SEO tools in the market. In this article, I will like to introduce you to some more free SEO tools.

Microsoft IIS SEO Toolkit

Microsoft has arrived with one of the most useful SEO tools - the IIS (Internet Information Server) SEO toolkit. This toolkit is only installed on IIS 7 web server. However, you can also use it to analyze any remote site not running on IIS 7. The toolkit offers you interesting utility features such as, site analysis, Robots exclusion, site indexes, and sitemaps. From all these analytics, you can derive useful information about how to make your site more and more search engine-friendly.

Sitemap Generator AuditMyPC

To improve the search positioning of your website, your site needs to be familiar with the intricacies of leading search engines such as Google. One way to catch the attention of a search engine is to create a site map and offer it for the search engine's inspection. Though there are many tools that create site map, AuditMyPC is probably one of the best products available in this category. This is an online tool that runs on a Java-enabled browser.

SEO Toolbar

Firefox provides some additional libraries that offer a complete SEO kit on a toolbar. The SEO kit includes rank test features (Google PR, Alexa Rank), website search-friendliness analysis, keyword analysis, competitor's website analysis and many more SEO features.

Like Firefox, there is a similar tool for users of the Google Chrome Browser: the Site SEO Tools extension. This Chrome library gives you general information about your site's SEO readiness in a window.

Xenu Link Sleuth

This is a lightweight application that runs on all windows versions (desktop environment only). The application is pretty easy to use and it quickly detects the broken links (related to the eyebrow-raising Error 404). By detecting broken links, this application helps you to do a better SEO job.

SocialMention

We know that analyzing competitor's brand positioning is important to improve a site's SEO positioning. SocialMention is an online service that conducts search operation in blogs, forums, social networks, and calendar pages to derive information related to your brand or the keywords that you have used during your SEO activities.

Website Grader

This is an online service that measures a website's marketing success. Your site is given a score based on information like web traffic, the extent of SEO performed, popularity of the website in social networks, and several other technical parameters. The results serve as crucial metrics and will pave the way for your future SEO strategies.

Now these were some of the free SEO tools that you can use to make your website more search engine-friendly. As webmasters, we need to remember that SEO cannot bring immediate results. Patience and the will to discover new tools and techniques are essential attributes to deliver best SEO results in the long run.

A business needs to rely on remote backup services for a number of reasons. Whereas these reasons are as many as they are varied, we will review only the most important of them all in a systematic manner.

For starters, security is a given with these kinds of services. This is mainly as a result of the fact that your data will be stored off- site. Needless to state, this is of utmost importance because in case anything happens to your office or home, you can be certain that you will lose both the original data you had stored on your machine and the files you backed up.

However, storing your data elsewhere will give you a reason not to worry. This is because you can be certain that whatever eventuality is endured by your hard drive or computer, you can be certain that you have a secure and safe copy of the most important of your files in a different place.

Protection also comes with data storage done on a remote server. When you encrypt your data, you will be able to protect it from unwanted eyes. Most systems store data in the same format that it was in originally. This is risky because other people can easily look through your stuff.

However, with remote data backup services, your data will be encrypted automatically even before it has left the computer. It will stay in this form whilst in transit via the net. This way, once the time is ripe you will only need to use your password to decrypt the data for an easier read. Therefore, no unauthorized people will see the files.

It is also easy to make use of remote backup services. This is mainly because you will not be required to do anything to store it. Once you see to it that the software has been installed, a couple of backups will run automatically depending on the schedule you have chosen to go with. Once you decide on the schedule, all you have to do is relax and let the backups be in control.

Convenience is also in store for you when it comes to relying on server backup done on a remote basis. For instance, in case you are accustomed to using different computers, you must be certainly aware that it is somewhat difficult to transfer the files from one computer to the other. External computer hard disks are also not that much useful while flash memory tends to get lost easily. Optical media also tends to break frequently and get scratches.

The implication being made here is that in case you are looking for a convenient way to store your data, you will be very well advised to rely on backing your data on remote servers. This way, you will no longer have to be troubled by the worry and hassle of having to transfer data between computers.

Nothing has revolutionized the way people do business quite like the rapid onset of new and innovative technology, especially where the internet is concerned. After all, it is only in the past five years things have truly developed to the point where you can organize a business meeting from a Blackberry on a plane, proofread a proposal from your iPhone, or sit in an internet cafe, be it in San Francisco on in Shanghai, doing everything from finishing reports to organizing conventions. And while some critics claim that the new virtual office is going to decrease workflow and interrupt synergy, the truth is, business has never been better, on all levels.

From WiMax to satellite internet, the latest innovative service providers have only made it easier for business to become truly nomadic in the best way possible. Now, start-ups can look for the brightest talent regardless of their location and smaller companies that couldn't afford large New York offices can now appear impressive to their peers just by building and maintaining an extensive global network. Where branches in multiple international cities used to be the domain of only transnational corporations, the playing field has been leveled, and having at least one remote office is becoming par for the course as far as many companies are concerned.

And this switch by companies isn't just good for the CEOs and the silent partners: it's also helpful for workers who are interested in telecommuting. Think about someone who has considered, for the most part, retiring, and is now living a more peaceful life in a rural location. More often than not, some of America's most popular rural locations have internet that could be described as unreliable at best. Now, with the aid of things like satellite broadband, someone who isn't quite ready to leave the table can act as a consultant or contributing writer every so often, working from the comfort of a tranquil vacation atmosphere.

It's not just about the ability to have the odd guru here and there, either. Remote staffs are starting to pick up in a number of different fields, from localization services to the big powerhouses of SEO content, who can actually find writers all over the world to work for their clients. This means that if the job market is looking particularly bad in, say, Boston, it only takes a little bit of research online to find something that pays well and is based in a completely different city.

For those in managerial positions, organizing a remote staff with the help of satellite internet can get a little tricky if everyone isn't on the same page, technologically speaking. But if you decide to relocate the business or the IT portion of your start-up to somewhere that might be a little off the beaten path, investing in a dish means that not just checking in on you, but also keeping in touch with loved ones is a lot quicker and easier than it used to be in days of old. Technology truly is limitless.
