I’ve come across several free services that offer some great info about evaluating your own websites.
Starting with my most recent finds:
Website.Grader.com does a very good SEO evaluation of your sites and offers suggestions for improvements and links to directories. You need to set up an account before using it and opt-out of most of the emails. I will give this site 4.5/5 stars.
ZoomInfo.comis a new directory that is free. Gets more links pointing to your site…good for SEO. I give it a 5/5 stars for ease of use.
Alexa.com has some info that you may find valuable. 3/5 stars.
Market Leap’s Link Popularity Checkeris pretty cool. Compare competition and gain valuable insight. 4/5 stars.
Quantcast.com has very detailed information about your website and it’s visitors. Covers Traffic, Geographics, Demographics, Business and Lifestyles of your visitors. I highly recommend using this service. 5/5 stars.

Very Good Pat, I see we were on the same trip today. Thank you for posting, hope everyone reads it.
Come on Harvey leave us some more links to more sites.
I tell you what, that Website Grader will keep me busy for a few days making changes.
At the last meeting I mentioned a book that has been very helpful in managing my business. It is “CEO Tools” by Kraig Kramer, published by Gandy Dancer Press. Website: http://www.ceotools.com. I like this book because he gives very practical ways to manage my business. One tool we used right away is called “Recognition Bucks”. It involves asking employees to recognize each other with a written comment about a specific thing they did to help customers or make the business better. We did this a company meeting it it proved very rewarding.
Thanks, Jeb.
