Free is awesome. Especially when that “free” whatever is giving you extra traffic, money, rank, reputation, riches, etc. Thankfully, there are a ton of free tools in the SEO world. The downside is that some of these free tools are junk.

Google Analytics is to the online marketer like air is to the human being. You can’t live without it.
If you’re not yet using Google Analytics, I recommend that you begin doing so as soon as possible.

Most of the other data tools simply piggyback on Google’s datausing the API.
