hi all,
I was wondering what seo tools, apps etc. people use, apart from building clean, accessible code, I haven't really got into strategically looking at the data in google analytics and reacting to it.
Can anyone recommend any desktop app (mac), or web apps, free or paid that can help me keep on track. I did take a look at http://www.seomoz.org/ but its around £50 a month, which seems quite pricey to me.

I would think having original content would suffice, and a few other techniques that don't involve ^ that

Get a Google Webmaster Tools account for your site if you haven't already. Other than that, just read up on best practices. There is nothing in the SEO Moz tools that is all that essential, although they can be helpful. It's more knowing what to do and what not to do that is the main thing.

Actually Google Analytics is the main tool I use. They have the site search tool which overlays a layer of data on top of your website telling you where people clicked. Also the new intelligence reports is really nice too.
Other than that there is adwords, which has a website optimizer feature which lets you test multiple pages against each other and lets you know which one performs the best.
Non google stuff I use is Advanced Web Ranking 6.4. That tool allows you to see where certain keywords are ranking on your page, and also who your competitors are, keyword density, etc.... but i don't know if they have a mac version. I would love a mac one for home use.
There is one other one I used in the past that broke down my entire site according what needs to be fixed. It gives you a report that the SEO people would normally give you without the thousand dollar fee. I will let you know when I think of it.
