If you have ever tried to print a blog page you will quickly realize that the results are really terrible. PrinterFriendly is a plugin which automatically removes ads, navigation, and all the junk you don’t want to print including images, saving on  paper and ink. Creates PDF’s on the fly too! Check out the video and then try it out - our PrinterFriendly button is below at the bottom of this post … Simple point & click enrichment of your blog posts (and emails).  In real-time, while you type.

Zemanta suggests tags, links, photos, and related articles. This is a browser addon for Firefox and Internet Explorer.

Another way of tracking visitors to your blog is Woopra a desktop application that will show you which pages visitors are and have looked at, in real time too! Get a sense of what is working and what is turning off your visitors when they bail from you site. It’s pretty easy to use too.

://URLFAN  cultivates the content of millions of RSS feeds in an experiment  to discover popular websites, by parsing billions of pieces of information. The service will can alert you of mentions about your site, somewhat similar to the popular Google Alert service.

CopyGator monitors your RSS feed and find where your content has been republished (ie stolen!) in the blogosphere, building an overview page you can view to see how/when/where your content is being duplicated, quoted or plagiarized. Powered by the feed spidering power of ://URLFAN.

See the little Gator logo at the bottom of this page? It turns red if we have been plagarized – cool huh?

Very informative, as I have never heard of any of the things that you recommended above. Thank You.

The Printer Friendly plugin sounds like it is exactly what I need, as we use wordpress for all of our sites.
