• Free: Prog - free Google PageRank display search tool. The Page Rank algorithm is broken down based on several calculations such as incoming links, domain, content density, etc. It's a good tool to have, but you should not rely exclusively on your Internet Marketing performance with it. This website also has some other great features as well.

• Free: Rusty Brick’s link analysis tool. Works with the Google API and offers IP and anchor text reporting. Since it works with the Google API it is somewhat slow, but it is free. This tool works with C Block addresses. (http://www.rustybrick.com/link_analysis.php)
• Free:: Class C IP checker tool checks for duplicate class C IP addresses from a list of domains. Links from sites which are on the same C block IP address may not carry as much weight as sites from different C block IP addresses.

• Free: PostTrades unique C block backlink checker. In the upper right corner of the PostTrades website is a tool which will tell you the number of unique C block IP addresses pointing links into your site. Tool works by looking that the IPs in the first 1000 backlinks in Yahoo!. If you have over 1000 backlinks then the tool may not provide accurate results. (http://www.posttrades.com/)

• Free: (Directories) http://www.wowdirectory.com will list your site free, http://www.directoryarchives.com is a directory of directories, and here is a free Excel sheet http://www.seobook.com/directorylist.xls for managing some of your directory submissions. OptiTrex updates the directories list frequently
• Free: Roboform saves your data and makes it easy to enter payment and site listing information. Useful for massive directory registration, though
you still need to ensure you mix your linkage data. It may also be in your best interest to space out some of your registrations to show more natural appearing linkage growth.

• Free: Cooperative Ad Network … this essentially amounts to a huge link farm, but it is blended in with many sites that are well integrated into the web. Eventually it may somehow be filtered out or lessened in power, but currently it is rather powerful for MSN and Yahoo! (and to a lesser extent Google). OptiTrex currently is not using this ad network on any of my permanent sites, but feel it is worth mentioning.
(http://www.digitalpoint.com/tools/ad-network/)
• Free: PRWeb – free press releases. OptiTrex often recommends purchasing one of their premium services though. This tool is great for Press Releases and establishing incoming links (http://www.prweb.com)
