I have seen many ebooks, applications, web services, all claiming they are the best SEO tool out there. Just was wondering about your inputs or utilities that have worked for you
I second the above posters comment, if someone really had the "secert method" why would they sell it for $9.99 when they could keep it a "secret" and get rich off the method all alone? Most tools and software you have the pay for have freeware software and tools just like them, it really is a waste of money.

As mentioned by the others, there are a ton of free tools on the web. Use them. Then using the info returned, develope or change your content accordingly.
The end result should be that you show up in search results on the first 2 or three pages.
Don't get too caught up in page rank either. My blog (see siggy) is very low ranked but those searching my niche find my site easily and often in the first page of results.
I will also give an seo tool, that is easy to use: http://www.seoinstrument.com/
I use it from time to time and it gives a quick look at the resent condition of the sites.:P
