As a mobile based business owner, the creator often found himself using multiple browsers and workstations in the course of his work. When using a "foreign" computer, he often lost productivity by having to hunt for resources that were usually saved neatly in his highly customized browser and bookmark collection. This was unacceptable. So he set out on a mighty and arduous mission to create a resource that could encompass all his needs and yet still be accessible "in the cloud"

Out of this adversity the Online Writers Toolbar was born. Within its tiny confines contains all the dashboards, sites, custom seo searches and informational resources for any Online Writer, SEO or Site Developer to quickly create and pound out their daily tasks.

Productivity Hack:

When you highlight text with your mouse it will autoadd to your custom search box!

The Online Writers Toolbar includes its own Custom Search engines, they are as follows:

Research Tools

• HubPages Site Search
• Google
• Bing
• Creative Commons Image Search
• Wikimedia Public Domain Image Search
• Amazon Product Search

These simple search engines allow one to replicate the inbuilt Firefox search when using Chrome, IE or Safari (The toolbar works with all 4 major browsers)

The Image searches are invaluable for quickly finding and acquiring images which you have full rights to use.

SEO Tools

The custom search includes three pre-written Google Advanced Operators which are often used by SEO Professional's when doing Competitive analysis.

• allinurl:"search"
• allintitle:"search"
• allinanchor:"search"

In addition the custom search can be used to search "this site" which will automatically search the whole expanse of the domain you are viewing using the advanced operator site:"current domain"

Developer Tools

• Wordpress Plugin Directory

There is almost always, "a plugin for that" Now when the idea takes hold you can search right from your toolbar.

THE HP (Hubpages) Tab

The first featured Tab is marked HP - as the reigning king of Writer's sites it gets top billing.

The HP Tab features quick links to:

This plugin is one of the most used and most referenced in the "must have" lists. Using the Stats plugin requires an account with wordpress.com. Many may not realize that every time they authorize a new site for the stats plugin, it is registered in their wordpress.com stat dashboard. Using the integrated Wp Stats link you can now view ALL of your wordpress sites that utilize the plugin without having to log into each site.

Its the Ultimate Writers Toolbar and this tab proves it

The Write tab is dedicated to three major headings:

• eMail
• Revenue Sharing Sites
• Guest Posting

email

If you need to quickly fire off an email; gmail, hotmail and yahoo mail are featured with quick links. If you use another provider you can utilize the "email notifier" option which will be discussed later.

Revenue Sharing Sites:

13 sites are currently featured in the Revenue Sharing site section of the Writers toolbar, including stalwarts like Hubpages, Squidoo and Infobarrel and extending to brand new contenders Zujava, Wizzley and Xobba. You can click the image below to see full size image of the toolbar and the write tab and read the entire current selection or simply install the toolbar and get started exploring on your own.

Guest Posting:

Utilizing sites that allow Guest Posting is a great way to gain exposure and show off your writing chops and expertise for existing user bases in established sites. This section will grow greatly over time. In fact send me an email or leave a comment if you have a Guest Post resource of your own.

Social media is here to stay an dis a great way to stay connected with recent news, industry tips or just kill time and brain cells sending me application requests for the latest stupid survey, chain mail or annoying game application .. but, I digress.

Social Tab

• Facebook
• Twitter
• Google+
• LinkedIn
• Pinterest

In addition to those social media networks, a sub heading for revenue generating (but Pandalyzed) sites Xomba, SheToldMe and Redgage exists for those still active in those communities.

Note: Pinterest is proving to be hugely popular, one of the owners of Hubpages recently shared that Pinterest had broken the top ten in referring sites.

The Keyword Tab features:

• Adwords Keyword Tool
• Youtube Keyword Tool
• Keyword Academy
• The Challenge
• Longtail Keyword Free
• SEO Power Suite Free
• MicroNicheFinder
• SEOmoz
• Majestic SEO

Some are training courses in the keyword field, either free or offering cheap trials, some are premium tools that offer lite versions or web based versions. All are strong performing industry leaders.

Note: Yahoo Site Explorer is no more. This accounts for the (short lived) major loss in functionality to Market Samurai and the "-" 's one sees in SEO Quake. Majestic SEO is the best replacement for that tool and they do allow a limited number of free searches a day.

The IM Library is HUGE! and grows frequently. One can find quick links to all the major SEO forums and blogs (Matt Cutts Blog --> Webmaster World) , links to the top marketing blogs in the world (Chris Brogan, Seth Godin etc.) and the major forums of the Internet marketing and online writing fields (Warrior Forums, Digital Point, Hubpages etc.)

Dedicated sections for eBook publishing, Wordpress developers and Freelance Job Boards will be rolled out in the near future.

These are the resources that everyone in this industry should have at least passing familiarity with.

As Promised, an eBook Publishing Module has been added.

Under eBook Publishing you can now find direct links to:

• Amazon Kindle Publishing Dashboard - Submit Books and Check Sales Reports
• Nook Pubit! Dashboard
• Smashwords Dashboard
• Createaspace Dashboard

Using the red Pinterest icon, one can now Pin articles and images to their online Pinterest boards right from the Online Writers Toolbar

It was important to create a toolbar that would allow for the substitution of some other common add-ons that both regular users and power players depend on.

Using Facebook Connect one can log into Facebook once and then use the toolbar to keep tabs on your daily messages and notifications without having to actually enter the site.

Facebook mobile users should recognize these settings as matching the top menu on your phone applications.

Useful, Quick, Facebook is fully integrated.

Including a useful "share" link you can use to pass on great articles, like this one, to all your friends that would love to use it too. The "share" feature is a bit more featured than "like" and allows one to add comments before posting as if you were posting a new link manually on your wall.

Its a writers toolbar! .. so it better have Freelance Jobs available in a single click!

Using the browser icon of a little house (work at home) one can easily search a database of available freelance projects. These jobs are mostly aggregated from sites such as odesk and elance, but also includes custom additions like the copyblogger job boards and other private respected institutions that utilize the service to find writers and site designers

The eBay icon allows one to stay logged into their eBay account to access their seller and buyer dashboard with just one click.

Its a great resource for doing product comparisons on your hubs and articles or searching for buying terms in the eBay marketplace to use in your own copy or site design.

Every feature of the Online Writers Toolbar 2012 edition can be removed or added at ones choice. By clicking on the crown icon (King of Toolbars!) one can remove any existing functions, design new functions or add pre-existing applications like the previously mentioned "email notifier"

Under this crown icon is also the "Upgrade" button. As this toolbar does receive updates based on user feedback, occasionally checking back on this article or simply upgrading to test for updates will allow you to always have the best and most recent resources at your fingertips no matter what workstation or location you are using!
