EDIT: Now you know I should kill that affiliate link, don't you
*SIGH* SEO, a blessing and a curse
BTW: Thanks for the tip about using Google Analytics - it's proving rather useful.
DBL EDIT: Hmm. And even Elite SEO has missed a few....

I paid that $167 with a smile, 5 minutes after a friend let me into its secrets and gave me a demo from his machine running it... Have never been too intrigued by SEO until I saw some patterns... Right now Google/Yahoo/MSN/ASK/Jeeves the whole kaboodle of Search engines is spidering me on average every 30 minutes, and I can show you my hits purely from Search engines are making up the bulk of bandwidth costs to my sites....
(57% of all traffic in June came from Search Engines, without spending a dime)
Google Analytics is a must have, for any site, no matter what the site is about... You will learn the ropes in time and create miracle reports that will blow you away by its shear brilliantness!
Riaan have you tried using the Google webmaster tools? They also show you who is linking to your site, if you did, how accurate do you think it is compared to SEO Elite?
Webmaster tools will show you the links, but won't show all of the following: Search engine Page with link Page PR Alexa Rank IP Address Has backlink Page title Anchor text
The prog has Google API built in so communicates with Google directly to pull the information and from there it pulls all the other information from loads of other sources, which would take you at least an hour manually... That page for TheForumSA took me about 40 seconds.
It also uses the following Search Engines to gather information: Yahoo, AltaVista, AlltheWeb, MSN.
Do yourself a favour, check in the downloads directory for an ebook I uploaded about one of the other programs I use, specifically for keywords...
Your an SEO man, would you rather spend an hour digging for info for a client or have it done in a minute with all the info you're going to need?
lol, I had to ask that question without giving my opinion.
To be honest I also use SEOElite, been using it for the past 3 years, before that I used Digitalpoint's free tool because there was no tool that had the functionality that SEO Elite has. I also tested webCEO for a while, but I did not like the reporting function nor did the link reporting go back deep enough. That depth that SEO Elite offers is what makes it extremely powerful for an SEO company. Not to mention the speed of the reports, that normally would take you weeks to prepare by hand.
I also make use of IBP for checking local rankings for my reports on Google local search.
For people without a budget to purchase this software and are not full blown involved in SEO the Google webmaster tools are a good option though. There is also Aaron's tool for backlinks, these are not in SEO Elite's league but sure worth using if you are low on budget.
You see, you just had to pull my soul out didn't you?
