    Awesome list. I’d also add GetResponse. It’s a marketing automation tool with some more additional features.

    Hi there, I noticed that you are linking to Sharedcount.com on your article https://louisem.com/95461/online-marketing-tools . As that service is being discontinued, perhaps it could be useful to replace the link for Sharescount.com, a new working alternative. Keep up the great work!

    Awesome list! I think the email marketing portion could really benefit from a data verification service like XVerify. Just a suggestion!

    Such an informative blog keep going, thank you. I am planning to start my Content Writing and Marketing business. I have little knowledge about Content Writing, SEO and SMM. What all things should I keep in my mind before proceeding over? How is Content Marketing different from Digital Marketing? What are the key differences?

        Wow, that was pretty rude don’t you think And really harsh if I must say?!. I was just about to leave a very gracious comment , but after seeing your reply to his post I’ll pass. His comment is what I really connected with and I wanted to Thank You for all the help, but a beginner asks 1 question and gets his shit handed to him, no thanks and completely unnecessary.

          He’s not a beginner. His comment had a link to his website, which was on content marketing.

          Sorry to shock you but I can tell automated, spam comments when I see them. Feel free to Google his comment and you’ll see that the identical comment has been posted on at least 15 blogs.

          Perhaps I should have just passed on by.
