SEO for Firefox's New Features

SEO for Firefox.

Thank You for Updating!

Update: Like SEO for Firefox? You will LOVE the SEO Toolbar.

New in version 3.2.0 ... 3.3.0

  • Now works on maps.google.com (though it does not yet work on the Google Maps 7 pack that sometimes appears in organic Google search results)
  • Updated StumbleUpon configuration
  • Updated for new Delicious configuration
  • Business.com Directory search integration + $50 off coupon :D
  • Now compatible with FF 3.6
  • BOTW should work in on-demand mode
  • Now works on Microsoft's Bing search results.
  • By default nofollow highlighting is not turned on (though it can be turned on in the options menu). I was getting a lot of OMG feedback from new internet marketers about red links, and that was getting old. ;)

Save $50 Off Business.com Listings

Thinking of listing one of your websites in the trusted Business.com directory to get a high quality link? The following coupon scores you a $50 discount. In SEO few things are as good as a Google approved trusted link source that charges less than $1 a day. Especially when you get a discount! :D

Does your site have structural issues hurting your SEO progress? With the Website Health Checker Tool you will be able to research through many potential issues - in under a minute!

With the Competitive Research Tool you will learn

  • what profitable keywords competitors are ranking for
  • with an estimate of how much each ranking is worth
  • the top keywords your site ranks for
  • how much potential additional traffic you could get by improving those rankings
  • the value of that traffic
  • (and all kinds of other great data...I could write for hours about this tool!)
  • here is a quick member walk through video of this tool to give you an idea of how powerful it is!

With the Duplicate Content Checker Tool you will be able to see if the content your writers submit is original or plagiarized from other online sources indexed by Google, potentially saving you thousands of dollars in legal fees and other issues. And you can also check to see who is copying your content without consent.

If a site links to multiple competing sites then perhaps it is an industry organization, an unaffiliated news site, or a directory of industry professionals where you can advertise or build links from. With that in mind we created Hub Finder, a tool which shows you common backlinks amongst competing websites.

Links are a big piece of the SEO puzzle, but what links count the most? Links from other sites that are trusted (and well ranked) for your keywords are more likely to count a lot. Google even discussed boosting these links in one of their search patents. With that in mind we created the LocalRank tool, to show you which ranking sites are linking to other ranking sites.

I should have made a version update log a while ago, but now is better than never. :)

If you are using Firefox version 3 you can now enjoy a feature in SEO for Firefox that we call SEO X-ray. SEO X-ray allows you to see...

  • how the on page optimization of any page looks (headings, meta description, page title)
  • the keyword density of the page and popular phrases on the page
  • how many links point into a page (total links, or links from external resources)
  • how many links point out of a page (as well as the anchor text of these links, nofollow vs follow, internal vs external - all exportable in CSV format)

then this new feature makes it quick and easy to do all of that. Simply right click on the page you are viewing, scroll down to SEO for Firefox, and click on SEO X-ray.

That will show you an overlay on the screen like this
