    Okay, everybody is complaining about the new Safari for windows. We have to wait until the full patched version of Safari gets out. Meanwhile, here are a few things you can do with your Firefox browser to make it look like Safari.

    1. iSafari theme for Firefox - This is a cute safari like theme for Firefox, that will mask your favorite firefox in Safari skin. So much for the wait. Safari theme for Firefox
    2. Jumpback feature of safari on Firefox - Safari has this cool feature called Jumpback where you can follow as many links to pages from a search result, and when you want to jump back to where you started, just click the small jumpback icon on the url bar.
      With this little addon, you can incorporate the same feature on Firefox.
    3. Progress bar on URL bar - Another feature about Safari is that the progress bar is combined with the url bar. With this little plugin you can create the same effect on Firefox.

    As an SEO whenever i visit a blog or read an article, my eyes ponder for the keywords used in it. Simply because I’m curious to know as to how deliberately have the author stuffed in them neatly.Sometimes there are great articles, sometimes there are scrap ones - i judge this based on the keyword density factor combined with the readability factor. A great article would have enough keyword density for the search engines, all the while maintaining the readability factor for the readers.

    Though finding out the keywords in an article was never an easy job. I found a Firefox plugin that makes things easier this side.

    It scans for possible keywords used in an article and shows it’s page strength simultaneously when you are browsing the page.

    It will help you when you are drafting articles for your blog.Let it run when you are drafting the article, and adjust the keyword density to satisfactory levels before you publish the post.

    That’s a neat SEO trick!
