Todays’ Free Traffic Tip #1- Concept: Toolbox

I was a little busy today. I tend to use the term, “working from home” loosely, and today I’m back at my home - Home. And I’m trying not to grow too attached to it, because I’m soon to move to another part of the area for a short time, and then move back to the East coast permanently. I love it out here in the West though, and I’d love to buy a house out here.

Anyhoo, today, I want to talk about toolboxes. I learned the hard way this past week, when my phone went on the fritz that there are some tools I can’t live without, free or not.

Free Traffic Extra: MSN & I told ya so: Updated

So. Remember on Monday when I told you there was a new news bot in town? Today, the back story was in- and yes, I was right again. *does little dance*.

Update: The earliest place I can find with the story, after my speculation in my blog was ZDNet. They’re in the same family as Technology.Updates.com - so I thought it only fair that I should come back and state that. How did I find that? My Slashdot headlines.

Free Traffic Tip #3: Google Tools of the Day

Here’s a tool that gives you three levels of site information - its Google PR, the number of backlinks it has through Yahoo, and its Alexa rating.

As the site discusses, Alexa information can be a helpful way to help determine a relative traffic measure. It is not, and is not intended to be, an absolute determination of a site’s ability to draw and retain traffic. When evaluating sites by their Alexa rating, click on Traffic Details and look at the page views.
