Here’s another SEO tool I would love to see built.

Site Theme Keyword Cloud Generator

This tool would allow someone to enter the URL of their site in order to have a keyword cloud built based on the keywords found throughout their site.

The tool would spider a certain number of pages (Lets say 10-100), and return a keyword cloud.

Heres an example of a keyword cloud that blinklist.com uses

It would be great to be able to visually see the theme of a site.  This would could be used to analyze your competitors or to just get a rough idea of how a search engine might see it.

If anyone wants to team up to make this tool.  Let me know.  I’ll fund it if someone wants to manage the building of it.  This would be a great free SEO tool.

For those of you who don’t already know, Aaron Wall (Seobook.com) released his “SEO for Firefox” extension (SFF) a few weeks ago.  It has gotten some really great reviews so far.  I started using it last week and it has already saved me a good amount of time.

In Aaron’s own words:

SEO for Firefox pulls in many useful marketing data points to make it easy get a more holistic view of the competitive landscape of a market right from the search results.

If your a link builder it can be a real lifesavor.  It’s also great for researching domains for acquisition.

Out of the box, SFF only pulls pagerank automatically.  If you dont mind your searches being slowed down a bit you can default it to include actual data of things such as Age, Yahoo Backlinks, Links in DMOZ…

Even with all the options defaulted on, SFF will show you the search results first and then add the additional data in real time as you sit there browsing. There is still a slight slowdown in browser performance but you can customize it to show only the info you need which will speed it up.

I’m packing for SES San Jose and didnt have a bunch of time to write a comprehensive review, but take my advice and download it.  It will definitly save you some time.

Look forward to seeing you all there!
