Do you ever wish there was an easy way to analyze other sites that outrank yours in the organic search engine results (so you can emulate their success)? The people at We Build Pages have granted your wish with their free Top Ten Analysis SEO Tool. While this tool has been available for some time, it was recently enhanced to provide even more information.

In addition to standard stuff such as rankings, pages indexed, backlinks (for the page, the domain as a whole, and from .edu sites), and Alexa rank, the tool offers other valuable information, including:

• “Related Pages” – this shows the site’s linking “neighborhood” (for a good explanation of this, see Jim Boykin’s blog post on co-citation).

• “Allinanchor Rank” – this shows how your overall backlinks text (anchor text) ranks in Google.

• “Age of URL” – this shows when the URL was reserved.

• “Age in Wayback Machine” – this shows when the Wayback Machine first indexed a site at the URL and is probably a more accurate depiction of the age of the site than when the URL was reserved.

We Build Pages offers a plethora of other free SEO tools, including a Backlink & Anchor Text Tool that will display all the backlinks pointing to your site as well as the anchor text in each link. There’s a ton of data available – if you’ve been frustrated by your organic rankings, this is a great place to start doing some digging to figure out what you could be doing to improve your visibility.
