Looking for a good blog editor? Bloggers around the world now have a new tool that makes blogging a little bit easier. Zemanta is a newly launched tool that easily integrates into several blogging platforms. Typepad, Blogger, and Wordpress users can incorporate it into their everyday blogging needs.

It will conveniently recommend links, pictures, tags and articles that are related to your current blog postings. The reason Zemanta can make such smart recommendations is because of the proprietary language and algorithms built into it.

Zemanta produces its search results from within a large number of media sources and blogs from some of its users. A vast number of images from Flickr, Shutterstock, Fotolia, and other photo websites furnish Zemanta with needed info. Users will not have to worry about getting into legal troubles when taking advantage of this useful feature. Content has been pre approved by the providers for regular consumer use.

The setup process involves installing the necessary Firefox extension and then restarting the browser. At this time, Mozilla Firefox is the only browser supported for this blogging tool. After completing the installation process, you’ll have to visit one of the blogging platforms that support the service. Start posting your valuable content and then Zemanta will take care of the hard work. It quietly works behind the scenes making sure that only relevant information pertaining to your blog posts are shown.

Once you start writing posts, you’ll quickly notice a sidebar on your editing page. It will contain tons of photo galleries and other content. This will make your posting process quicker and easier to enhance. Writing more content for your blog posts will increase the recommendations from Zemanta. For the best results, make sure that your blog posts are at least 300 words and it is only available in English. In the future, there may be more changes to this blogging tool.

Instead of having to search for photos or content all over the Internet, let Zemanta do the legwork for you. This is a cool blogging tool with a lot of potential. When I first started using it, it had a few bugs and the sidebar did not want to populate. After refreshing the page, it appeared and started working properly.

Although there are a few bugs in Zemanta, I am still impressed by it. Using Zemanta to work with my blog posts has helped me shave off some excess time. Anyone looking for a useful tool while blogging should take a look at Zemanta.

I am sometimes overwhelmed by the amount of content online – and I wondered – how much of this content is keyword optimized? In a recent quest to find the best article keyword density analyzer, I found a lot of sites that allow you to analyze your web pages but not many that allow you to analyze the text PRIOR to posting it online. However, there was one gem in the vast array of so-called keyword density analyzers (http://www.live-keyword-analysis.com).

These days, it’s no longer enough just to create and post your content on the internet; it actually takes focus to create not only interesting subject matter, but making sure interested readers can easily locate your content in the boundless sea of information on the web.

So how do you ensure the subject matter will be found and read? The best way to ensure that your content gets attention is by using a keyword density analyzer, a type of search engine optimization software to maximize the results of a contents exposure on the web.

SEO basically is used to make sure that content posted on the internet is found by search engines spiders like Yahoo!, Google, and MSN- which makes it easier for browsers to find specific information. By using specific keywords in an article, a search engine will find the keywords from the article and instantly measure the keyword density to make sure it can be ranked by a search engine.

The most popular online tool for measuring the keyword density is a keyword density analyzer, which measures the percentage of keyword saturation. There are a lot of free seo tools that help in maximizing the results of keyword density, but this has to be the most effective tool to ensure that a website or keyword rich article will be found by the search engines.

The best thing about this tool is that there are so many websites offering their services for free, but most sites like Keyworddensity.com, only allow content creators to post the URL of their website to measure their contents keyword density. However, for those people who would rather see the results before posting their content to a website, there is a great alternative called Live-Keyword-Analysis.com.

This site does not ask for the URL to locate your posted content, it analyzes a contents density from an easy cut and paste box. Better yet, it actually measures the keyword density in real time, so one can edit their content while watching the keyword density saturation percentage increase. Once the keyword density rate is at an appropriate rate, the content can be simply cut and pasted into your website or URL and posted – it’s really that convenient to use!

What other keyword density analyzers have you found? Are there any better ones out there?

When you first started blogging, you probably used to spend a lot of time refining the design and making sure your site loaded quickly. You basically made sure that is was technically sound and working well for your visitors. However, after some time, your concentration may have shifted to other important tasks such as writing good content, marketing

your blog, commenting on other blogs, writing guest posts, etc.

Here’s a list of free tools you should definitely check out to make sure that your website is running at an acceptable level compared to your fellow bloggers. If your site is not running optimally, then you’re probably not getting the your full potential of traffic.

1. Website Grader - I wrote about Website Grader a few months back as a free search engine optimization tool that you should be using if you’re a webmaster. Website Grader will give you a report of many aspects of your site and a final grade out of 100. When I first ran it on my site, I was at 56, now I’m up to 98. And my traffic has gone from 100 visits a day to 5000. I’m not saying it’s because of Website Grader, but it helped me determine problem areas.

2. Xinu Returns - Another web site I had written about a couple of months back that lets you quickly check things like your pagerank, rating, backlinks, and indexed pages. It’s a great tool to get a quick overview of your the status of your site in the blogosphere. It also gives you tips for your title tags and meta keywords.

3. BrowserShots - This site is really awesome for webmasters. You type in your web address and then choose all of the browsers and OSs that you would like to see your website shown in. You can see how your web site looks on Linux, Windows or Mac and in all of the different browsers, including Firefox, IE, Safari, and Opera. You can also choose the screen size, color depth, etc. Really great tool.

4. YSlow - YSlow is a Firefox only addon, but it is an amazing tool for analyzing a website in terms of performance and speed. It checks 13 different factors for a web page and generates a final score for the site. It also lists out the improvements that need to be made to ensure the highest possible grade. I wrote two articles on YSlow, one about how it helped me reduce the load time of my site by 50% and another on how to setup YSlow. Make sure to read them and install Firefox just for this purpose.

5. WebSiteOptmization - Another tool you can use that is similar to YSlow, but no need for Firefox. It gives you a breakdown of various aspects of your site, including HTTP requests, DNS lookups, etc and gives you recommendations on how to make it load faster, etc.

6. BuiltWith - BuiltWith is a very cool site that creates a profile of your website based on what technologies your site is running on. This site really focuses on the actual technologies that your site is built with, i.e. PHP, Apache server, Google Analytics, etc. It also gives you a score out of 5 stars depending on how good those technologies are. Microsoft.com has a rating of 2/5! IIS sucks!

7. CSS Optimizer - Just about every website uses css in some way or another and each call to a CSS file takes time to download. If you can shrink the size of your CSS files, even by a little bit, you’ll save a lot of time on page loading. You can also go to the W3C CSS Validation site to make sure your CSS is valid.

8. Minify - A very powerful tool that will take your JavaScript and CSS files and combine them together and remove all unnecessary comments and whitespace. I have used this tool before to reduce the size of my Javascript files by almost 40%. You can imagine the savings in load time because of that, especially if you use Wordpress where each plugin usually has it’s own Javascript file.

Going through these websites for a few hours and really analyzing your website will help you improve the overall user experience with your website. I learned many things that from these sites that would have been impossible for me to figure out myself. Enjoy!
