Help Free Marketing Tools Part III
Filed under: Affiliate Marketing, General; Tagged as: alexa traffic, bigsige, convert format, copyscape9 CommentsPart III
Alexa
Alexa is a Yahoo free tool that allows you to find out the traffic of any site online, it is coming with some controversy, I will say that even when is unreliable, it is doing an excellent job:
- It does give you a good indication as to how many hits a site is getting
- Let you compare sites traffic
- Let you monitor your own site, just creating an alexa-account for the site and implementing a small HTML code in your site meta-tags
In the next picture I compare traffic for:
- Zazzle.com
- CaffeePress.com
- eBay.com
- Amazon.com
Looking to the chart: Amazon has the most hits, followed by eBay, Zazzle and Caffee Press are almost zero traffic vs. Amazon and eBay. But between Zazzle and CaffePress, Zazzle is doing better.
If you request a chart just for one website you scroll down can click on self-service tool (red arrow):
At this point you open an Alexa account for your website, follow the instructions, and when the account is approved, we will receive an email from Alexa with a piece of HTML code, and instructions where to put the HTML snippet on your site.
Making money online is all about traffic AND conversions, if you know more about how your site is doing, it will be easy to know the areas you must improves.
If you understand its limitations of this tool, and you will do using it, then Alexa can be a fantastic free marketing tool.Zamzar
Did you ever want to convert files from one format to another without to download bulky software? You need www.Zanzar.com
Zamzar supports a big variety of different formats, I frequently use it when I need to convert a gif picture in a jpeg picture, I also use it when I need to convert something to a PDF really fast.
Gigasize
Did you ever need to send a big, really big file that e-mail cannot handle it?
You need www.Gigasize.com which will let you transmit max. file size 300 MB and 10 file max for a free account.It is supper fast, you’ll have your files sent before you know it! You basically send large email files on Internet by uploading to Gigasize.
This way you can upload: Movies, Music, Games, and Photos, and store them on-line for instant access and sharing.
Copyscape
Did you ever worry about people stealing your content online (if you don’t, you should be!)? Y0u need www.Copyscape.com.
The debate is still on about whether penalties for duplicate content exists or not, but I advise everybody to have a quick look to discover if anyone has stolen your content every now and then.
This is a handy free tool, you type your website address into the box, and then click submit. This is it, the tool will rush off and check if anyone is copying your post/aticle when they shouldn’t be.
It is amazing! Isn’t it?
Until the next time
All the best Michey

More great tools.
Alexa is an important tool as another implement to expose trends and performance of our competitors. Again, as you stated in a previous comment, trends are generally under used for marketing purposes.

Sounds like Alexa can give us a lot of useful information. I am surprised that Amazon has more hits than Ebay.

I hadn’t heard of Copyscape. That sounds like an interesting tool. Newspapers know all too well the harm that can come from others stealing their online content.
