On the weekly and very useful #SEOChat Twitter Chat this question was asked:

Q6: What tools do you use to help with relationship building & management? #seochat

— Tanner Petroff (@tannerpetroff) February 27, 2014

There were a lot of tools mentioned. I’m going to list as many here as I can. However… I think any discussion where tools are suggested quickly turns into a link fest, where people are talking about every tool they’ve ever used for anything. Some of the ones listed below do seem relevant to relationship building and management as would apply to SEO, but a lot of them don’t seem to really belong. Based on the excitement about Buzzstream, I think that’s one to check out.
