Thanks for this! I think I could spend hours just trying to wrap my head around all these functions.. are there any specific uses for these that you think would be particularly useful? Any 'low-hanging fruit"?
 
That sites loaded with amazing tools!!, I haven’t yet wrapped my head around it all. But ....

https://tools.digitalmethods.net/beta/scrapeGoogle/autocomplete.php
Holy smokes auto complete list for any country or town in a country! Talk about long tail research

The scrapers are all nuts,
https://tools.digitalmethods.net/beta/scrapeGoogle/

this site is really a hidden gem! I found it because i wanted to scrape emails from Disqus..

The full power of all the tools here will take some one more advanced than me to discover
 
Seriously, that is pure awesome @Murk great share. There is so much here to play with...
 
Here is one I found a while back which is handy for checking Majestic stats.

http://www.webmastercare.com/majestic-seo-information/

It allows you to bulk check up to 20 URLS with TF, CT, Ref Domains, External Back links.... (its pretty much the same tool you have if you have a majestic account - but its free to use).

Its handy for checking the top ten results in Google if you are looking at the competition ...

3. Login to your twitter account
4. Navigate to the follower list (or following list) on twitter accounts like (OfficialdDrannex) or (ItsMeMacleod)

2) ActionAlly - Browser plugin to help keep you focused and effective: http://actionally.com/

3) Game to help increase fluid intelligence (short term memory) - http://brainworkshop.sourceforge.net/tutorial.html


Action Ally seems pretty cool. I like the idea. Not sure I'd use it due to my workflow but I could see that being effective for some folks, especialliy if they worked in a reward schedule to go along with it.

The Dual N-Backs or whatever they are called, I saw that years ago along with the research to go with it. I remember seeing something about even raising IQ points a lil bit (nothing too drastic). Windows only though. I'd like to try Luminosity or one of those with more games and better tracking and what not. I just don't know if they actually produce any long-term effects.

Yep the Dual N-Back that I linked to has a good amount of research backing. My goal is to complete 10 minutes/day and work my way up to the 25 minutes/day that is recommended.

I bought one of these nifty little timers off amazon and keep it on my desk whenever I need to work on something for x amount of time: (write article, dual n-back, work on website, etc) http://www.amazon.com/Datexx-Miracl...TF8&qid=1424034565&sr=8-1&keywords=dice+timer

You just turn the "dice" to the time you want and it sets the alarm. Quick and easy :smile:
 
One that I've been using a fair bit recently is Answer the Public - It gives you a good overview of the kind of questions people are asking in your niche.

By no means comprehensive but I've certainly found a few gems of content titles from that tool.
