Combine an acclaimed list of the greatest websites and blogs in search, with Google Co-op Custom Search, and a dedicated “meme” showing the latest trends and hot stories.
Right on your Google toolbar!
All good sales pages contain a story. This isn’t a sales page, but the story is quite remarkable nonetheless.
Lee Odden is one of the biggest names in the Search Industry, founder of Top Rank Marketing and author of Top Rank SEO blog.
Lee came up with the brilliant idea of publishing a complete list of the blogs and websites he monitors for information specific to the search engine industry. He also published the OPML file from his feed reader.
What is rare, is that he also made a commitment to keep the list updated on a regular basis, ensuring it is both complete and above all relevant.
Some readers saw the list, and decided to put it to work. A number of search engines were quickly introduced based upon Google’s recently introduced custom search engine.
- Alister Cameron - Search Engine Marketing Search Engine
- Marc Ohmann - Internet Marketing Search Engine
- Joe Williams - Search Engines According to Category: SEO, Social Media, Black Hat, Linking, Web Design. Lots of work went into this one!
- Eurekster Swicki (A-M only) - Search Marketing Blogs
Michael Gray, also known as Graywolf suggested it would be a good idea to create a “river of news” from the OPML file, so Lee contacted Megite.
Megite obliged in creating a dedicated SEO | SEM Meme
Most Google Toolbar buttons are fairly useless. They are based around a single site allowing you to search, and more rarely also include the site’s RSS feed.
In most cases after you have installed them, they are rarely used.
This one is a little different
- Search 300+ top SEO and SEM related sites
- Discover the hottest news within the industry
- One button, all you need to know
I chose to use Alistar Cameron’s search - it looked nice and he has stated that he will keep it up to date
Grab the Toprank Button
It should be noted that this will only work with the Google Toolbar for IE, or the beta version Google Toolbar for Firefox

[…] Andy Beard has made further good use of the list and OPML file of the search marketing blogs we’ve been maintaining in the form of a Google Toolbar button.
