Thanks Kyle for your list of tools! Here we go…..
1) Skype
Need inter-office communication about a project or schedule a meeting? Skype is a great tool for collaborating in group chats and quickly firing out ideas and easily sharing website URLs. Perhaps you’d rather distribute that new viral video of the 2 legged dog or cats that eat with chop sticks to all of your employees? Skype is definitely the multi-functional software you need.
2) Global Soundings
A beauty of an internet marketing software tool. This daily organic
search ranking tracker is extremely easy to use and provides effective analytics and manages the success of your internet marketing campaigns. The reverse competitive analysis tool is exceptional.
3) HTML Validator
Clean code is good code, ditch the mindless errors and unnecessary warnings of invalid characters in your websites with this dirty code indicator.
4) Notepad++
Although there are a few Dreamweaver pilots in the company, the rest of us nerds (sorry, geeks) use Notepad ++. Hand-coding is smart because who wants extra junk provided by WYSIWYG’s in their files? Plus, it makes you a better, more reliable developer!
5) Open Office
Microsoft, schmicrosoft, this is free and open source. We like Open Office because it’s multi-dimensional and you can export files to more conventional extensions. Did we mention it was free?
You can tweet what you had for lunch, or where the next dog show is, but Twitter has proved itself as a valuable business resource for inbound marketing campaigns for small and large businesses alike! It is a great way to share the topics of our weekly webinar series. Also, we knew about Michael Jackson’s death before he even died.
