Cool Tools for Search Marketers
Written by: Janet Driscoll Miller
One of my favorite things I get out of conferences is learning about all of the great tools that are available. Christine Churchill of KeyRelevance presented the Cool Tools for Search Marketers session.
Christine started by sharing why she thinks tools are so important:
- save money and time
- provide insight outside of your own site
- identify missed opportunities
- does the “grunge work” for you
- they make you more efficient and keep you sane!
