21.6 SEO Tools

There are a number of tools that I recommend to help with search engine optimization. The first is the Google Toolbar, which will let you keep track of your page ranking. You can download it for free at http://toolbar.google.com/googlebar.html.

The Alexa toolbar is also useful and will show you how your site ranks against others. You can download the Alexa toolbar at
