Breathe ... Relax. The Internet is not as big and scary as it may seem. Here is a list of Internet marketing tools that will make your Internet experience much more enjoyable.

Google

The boys and girls at Google have been providing web users with tools that are constantly changing and improving the ability to interact with the Internet. Aside from Search, I find myself using the following tools on a daily basis. All you have to do is create a Google Account and be on your way...

• Google Analytics - I love the ability to dissect and analyze an array of reports. This tool offers you the ability to monitor site traffic, user behavior & most importantly Conversion Rates! Google Analytics also offers the ability to tag your various web marketing campaigns as a way to monitor the performance of specific campaigns.

• Google Alerts - Use this tool to monitor competitive keyword rankings in your vertical or to be notified any time your website is being mentioned in a blog post, web article or news wire.

• Google Reader - Once you enter your Blogosphere you will need a fast, easy and organized way to stay on top of fresh blog posts. Google Reader is a great tool that presents you RSS feeds from your favorite blogs.

Mozilla Thunderbird

This email client is a step ahead of the rest. With features such as Advanced Folder Views, Message Tagging and improved search functions, Thunderbird is the Mr. Clean of email clients. This tool will slap your messy inbox into shape! Mozilla offers a variety of add-ons to Thunderbird, such as Lightning, a very functional calender.

Wordpress

If you are interested in adding a blog to your site (and you should be) - look no further! Wordpress blogs are not only fast and easy to set up, but also extremely functional. Users have the ability to download a variety of plug-ins that will add certain functions to the blog, such as SEO to all blog posts & Analytics to measure the blog performance.
