One of my favorite tools from Hubspot is their Website Grader tool. I use it a lot to check the grade of my sites, the sites I link to and get links from, as well as competitors. My DFWMoneyMatters Persona Finance Blog is currently getting a grade of 88 on Website grader, that is a bog jump from the beginning grade which was 38!  This is all great info to help improve your SEO and Rankings. The best part is that their tool is free and absolutely easy to use. Website Graderis an awesome free online tool, it is very useful as it will tell you things like :
