Thing is, there are tons of free SEO apps for your iPhone out there. That means you can install them and assist your customers or just work with your own site right on the go. Right here and right now. I’ve spent a few HOURS installing and testing a whole lot of apps for my iPhone 5S. Here’s the thing. This post is actually a roundup of the best free SEO apps for your iPhone. Most of them are actual apps that you can use for all sorts of search engine things, but you’ll also find two items that are essentially video courses packaged as Udemy.com courses. Thus you can learn how to handle SEO for your website and select the tools you want to use for that.
Site Analyser
Site Analyser (from Koozai) allows you to get all sorts of domain info (location, domain age, date created, no. of indexed pages, etc), on-page SEO data (page size, load time, etc), and link profile titbits, such as Page Rank, domain links, etc). In order to get the info, you just need to specify your domain name and enter your security code. Other than that, the Site Analyser app makes it possible to read the Koozai blog right from within the app.
SEOgrams
The SEOgrams is just a collection of all sorts of SEM (search engine marketing) infographics, which allow you to comprehend complex concepts. The infographics are broken down in the following categories: social, PR 2.0, keywords, ROI, concepts, linking, habits, conversion and geotargeting. Truth is, it’s not always comfortable to peruse those infographics on your iPhone. That’s why you can use the Email Infographic feature so that you can study it in great detail on your Macbook or iPad.
Found SEO-Tool
With the help of the Found SEO Tool app, you can just specify your site address (URL) and hit the arrow button on the right-hand side. In a while, you’ll have your site details and issues highlighted, such as canonicalisation, robots, sitemap, loading time, links analysis, image analysis, headings analysis, metadata analysis, keywords analysis, etc. All the pieces of info are broken down into three categories, such as successes, warnings and errors. It allows you to figure out which you need take care of in the first place.
iWebmaster Tools
It’s an amazing app that has tons of features that any professional SEO needs. You just need to create an account and login to the iWebmaster Tools app so that you can make use of all sorts of options. You can generate a quick SEO report that provides you with comprehensive data about your on-page SEO and usability. You can also make use of the Domain info tool, which gives you whois and other sorts of info (PR, Alexa Rank, etc). Other than that, you can make use of the Social Analytics tool to learn more about how many times people shared your site on Facebook, Google +, Twitter, Pinterest, LinkedIn, StumbleUpon, Delicious, etc. Plus you can learn the amount of pages that were indexed in the major search engines out there. The Directory listing checking feature shows the major directories (DMOZ, Yahoo, Yandex, Alexa) your site was added to.
Analyze
This tool is a pretty minimalistic one but it does the trick if you just need to quickly learn about the following metrics of your site: Google page speed, Alexa traffic rank, sites linking in, PR, indexed pages, etc.
Analytics
The Analytics app offers all sorts of info that you may expect from this sort of applications. You can check your site’s visits, pageviews, bounce rate, average time on site, etc. Also, you have the option to see detailed pie chart breakdowns of your audience in terms of country/territory, language, visitor type (new or returning), traffic sources, etc. It goes without saying that you can’t use it as a full-blown Google Analytics replacement, but I’m totally sure that it does the trick when you need to just take a glance at what is happening with yours or your customers’ site.
SEO for Content Creators
This app is basically a Udemy.com video course that walks you through the basics and intricacies of search engine optimization. Other than SEO tips and tricks, you’ll also get to know the basics of HTML and the tools you need to use as an SEO expert.
Getting Started with Google Analytics
It’s another app which is basically a video course. This one is about Google Analytics. You really want to take the course so that you get the biggest bang for you buck when it comes to using Google Analytics. You totally want to save the course on your iPhone (SAVE OFFLINE) so that you can watch video episodes every time you have a chance to.
Bottom Line
Unfortunately, you won’t be able to run a full-fledged SEO business just with your iPhone, but you can easily perform most of the things that professional SEOs need to do day in and day out. You want to use the tools when you commute or just need to take a quick look at something when on the go. The above-mentioned SEO Apps for your iPhone are the best ones that are currently available in the App Store.
And here’s a question for you. If you happen to have one, what is your favorite iPhone SEO app that you use on a regular basis? What are the pros and cons of the app?
