We all know that seo’s are getting paid a bit above other jobs that involves web development as this is where the success of an online business mostly rely, unless the site is as huge as Google, Yahoo, MSN and the likes which obviously don’t need search engine optimizers anymore.

We know that keyword research is one important factor if you want to be successful with an online business. Others even pay hundreds of dollars for a successful keyword research for their target market. But why pay if there are tools out there that you can use for free?

I have compiled some of the free keyword research tools that I have used and currently using for my seo projects. If you can add more, please feel free to leave it in the comment section and if I find it useful, I’ll add it in the list.

After discussing the advantages of submitting to article directories several days ago, I have learned yesterday that there’s a new exploit going around for article directories that is powered by article dashboard. Someone discovered a vulnerability which can be used by malicious people to conduct a sql injection attack. When I first learned about it, I asked the person who told me about it to prove it by logging into my site as admin and he really got in. When another friend told me how to do it, I tried it to a friend’s article dashboard powered directory and I also got into his admin panel without even knowing his username and password.
