Shake Your Fox With The Quake

Shake up your Firefox with SeoQuake addon. We all know that FF has an impressive collection of addons and the list keeps growing fat. This time, I'm gonna introduce to ya'll an indispensable FF addon for all webmasters, internet marketers and interested folks alike.

You can read the whole description about SeoQuake in mozilla addon site or on its website. Basically, it is feature packed and handy addon which helps me, as an IM, perform more than enough tasks for my work.

There are many additional parameters and plugins that u can find on seoquake website. A lot of people who get spawned by the idea of "hey I know SEO" will install the addon and enable a ton of parameters and plugins. Too much information can prove counter-effective. Folks will find it obtrusive and clutter and soon uninstall the great addon because they get frustrated that they actually don't have a clue about SEO.

So, tell me what are the essential parameters and plugins?
For plugin, I only enable Google plugin.
For parameters, most of the times, I only have Google Pagerank (PR), Yahoo! Links and Google Trend parameters.

*PR: rank of a website on certain keyword, ranging from 0 to 10 with the higher the better.
*Yahoo! Links: count the inbound links into that webpage, excluding links from the same domain.
*Google pagerank: search trend, geo information, related websites, keywords to that website/keyword

What else does SeoQuake offer?
SeoQuake has some other extremely helpful functions such as page info, keyword density. Webmasters and IMs will find these functions super helpful.

*Page info has 3 sections:
page info: including meta keywords, meta description...
parameters: all installed parameters will appear here
keyword density: basic keyword analysis

*Keyword Density
advanced keyword analysis with Google search volume and estimated CPC.

Are you saying that only cool people like you can use SeoQuake?
That's right I'm cool and I'm using it :)
For people who are not cool like me, Seo is a very practical and functional task that an average web surfers shouldn't waste time bothering. Tho it's cool to play with SeoQuake to know something about the website u r looking at. If you are doing research about a brand/product in Singapore and you come across an online forums discussing about it, it's a good idea to see where the majority of traffic to that site comes from, is it Singapore or US? If it's Singapore, it's acceptable to reference those comments as customers perception about that brand/product.

That's it about SeoQuake.
