    Hi Shishir

    This is nice to read about cool seo tools for website optimization and off page help. Would be great if you publish a guide about how I can use screamingfrog to find link building opportunities and more things that can help me with SEO.

    I have been using almost every tool from this list and have found them awesome. But screaming frog is something I still have to have my hands on.

    I still wonder how Ahrefs is missing in this list.
