Website Resources
Tools
Google Analytics Add this to the code in your website and receive detailed information on how many people are visiting your blog, where they are coming from and what search terms they are using. Here
Google Alerts Add this to the code in your website and receive detailed information on how many people are visiting your blog, where they are coming from and what search terms they are using. Here
Email Me Form Put secure forms onto your website - this requires people to verify images to contact you. Most webmasters suffer from a lot of spam if they put a contact form or email address on their website. I don't get any spam through this. Here
Page Rank Checker Use this tool to find out your Google PageRank. Here
Seo Digger Type in your domain and see what keywords you are ranking for on Google. Here
Seo Book Keyword Analyzer Type in a search term for estimates on how often people are looking for it on Google or Yahoo. Here
Google Keyword Tool Type in a keyword and Google gives you an idea of how many people are searching for it and the advertiser competition as well. Here
Wordpress Free, open source blogging software. The best. Themespress create a Wordpress theme from a regular site design for only $10.
Gallery Add a photo gallery to your website. I have it in use on a travel page I made. It's decent. Get a thumbnail on your site and link it through to the gallery. Here
Forums
The collective knowledge of Forums and the wide variety of topics covered make them some of the best information resources for building websites.
Digital Point is the biggest and the best. However your thread might get lost in the noise. here
SitePoint is smaller but with a much better developed market place for buying and selling services. There's also a section where you can have your website critiqued by other forum members, a highly useful service. here
NamePros was originally a domain-related forum, and while it still has huge content about this, you can get much more. here
