As many of you know, I’m a total geek when it comes to new tools. I’m not always as quick to adopt as I should be, but I love learning what’s possible.

Anyway, I was at the Traffic & Conversion Summit over the weekend (I’ll recap it soon), and on the morning of day three I attended a session which was literally 60 minutes of a guy on stage listing tools that Digital Marketer uses and recommends. I tried to record some of the session on a really poor quality Facebook Live video. But to save you from suffering through that, here’s a list of tools I wrote down that you may want to check out.

I should call out that these are not tools that I can formally endorse. I haven’t used these most of these tools, and in fact, many of them I hadn’t even heard of. If you’d like my list of recommended tools, those are listed here.
