Must Have SEO and Link Building Tools in Your Arsenal
A good set of link building tools is essential. From the tools you will get insight into competition, find out good sources to get links from, and compare your link profile to other websites. We already reviewed Majestic SEO, which is a must have in your arsenal, lets look further.
SEO Toolbar
SEO Toolbar combines new toolbar from SEO book, and 2 other tools, SEO for Firefox and Rank Checker. SEO for Firefox combines useful information such as the toolbar pagerank, number of incoming links according to Yahoo, number of .edu and .gov links (according to Yahoo as well), whois info, DMOZ listing, Yahoo directory listing and more.
The toolbar itself provides wealth of info as well for each page you are visiting. In an instant see incoming links to page / domain (yahoo, majestic), view archive.org, highlight keywords and more.

Link Diagnosis
Link diagnosis is a web based firefox plugin tool, that tries to filter out the most authoritative links for a website. It provides the most widely used anchor texts, and tries to create a list of the most popular pages on the domain.
My personal experience with this tool is below satisfactory, since the number of results was so limited, I would have been greatly misled if I trusted it. For a website with almost 1.5 million links, the tool only showed 35! How in the world. Maybe you will have a better experience. Give it a try.
Xenu Link Sleuth
Link Sleuth is all about internal link analysis. This tool acts as a search engine, checks your website for broken links, and shows all the data in an accessible format. It will give you an idea of all internal incoming links to all your pages, as well as the anchor texts and titles. If an important page is located deep inside and only has one internal reference, then you know that you did something wrong.
It also shows 404s, and links that point to the dead 404 pages. Also use link sleuth to run reports on the site from you which you want to get links from. If you see dead links, it can be an opening for you.
