What is the best seo tool ever.
How it will be helpful.

Common sense. you don't need a tool to make a SEO friendly site and most such tools are the modern equivalent of snake oil. Read the tips on Google's and other search engines own sites regarding their standards, and a bit about semantic markup. Make a well designed website with decent content and visitors will follow.

I don't think there is such a thing as a good SEO tool. SEO itself is a flawed idea - you want humans to like and use your site, not the search engines.

As NyteOwl said - make a good quality site with good content that people want to read, and make the layout (and HTML markup) clean and semantic (i.e. using tags for what they're supposed to be used for and using the right tags for the job) and users will find it useful, will stay longer, and will recommend it to others. As a natural consequence of that, search engines will also end up ranking it highly. The important part was that you thought of the user first, though. Think of the search bot first and you might get some benefits, but users will visit once, hit a horrible site and never come back again.

I use google webmaster tools and analytics to track keywords, traffic, and backlinks. I use the SEOquake extension in chrome to quickly view page rank, alexa rank, indexed pages, and full keyword density stats.

The best SEO tool would be the one that helps you do what you need to do fast and effectively. I don't agree that ALL SEO tools are useless, some of them are simply indispensable! You'd never rank for a highly competitive word without a backlink checker.
In any case, when using SEO software you gotta know what you're doing. If you don't know what you're doing, the SEO tool will not do the job for you.

Normally, SEO tools are classified into:
1. Keyword research tools
- Google AdWords Keyword tool
- SEMRUsh
- Rank Tracker
- WordTracker
and some others
2. On-page SEO tools:
- WebSite Auditor
- SEO Doctor
and others
3. Backlink checkers
- SEO Spyglass
- ahrefs
- Magestic SEO, etc.
4. Analytics (to measure traffic to the site)
- Google Analytics
- Hitstats
etc.
5. Social media
- Buffer app
- Hootsuite, etc.

Plus a bunch of black-hat ones, which I wouldn't advocate here, because they may lead to bad consequences for your site.

The best SEO tool? If I had to pick just one, in my experience, the best tool for giving you a great boost in SEO and potential, is WordPress.

WordPress is a very heavily developed platform and includes dozens upon dozens of plugins for SEO alone, If your site isn't running WordPress, I'd strongly recommend considering it. Weather you're monetizing with a webstore or advertisements, WordPress has you covered. It can even be integrated with merchant account services like FirstData via inexpensive 3rd parties.

Your wording scares me a bit. Stay away from SEO automation. Black Hat SEO might get small gains, or large gains for a small time, but nothing beats a fully organic white hat approach. If your goal is to make money, do it right, from the start.

Good luck, and if you need any SEO advice or help, feel free to PM me
