There are tons of website value calculators out there on the web and none of them are special to me – just taking into account of basic features such as technorati authority rank, alexa rank, Google Pagerank, number of backlinks from major search engines, website history and many more. Some of these estimators include WebsiteValueCalculator, YourWebsiteValue and Dane Carloson’s project using Technorati API.

You might have heard one of them before but there is one new start-up called Stimator which really impressed me at first look especially its wonderful interface. Touted as a “A Real-Time Website Value Estimator”, this free tool enables you to find out how much your website is worth by grabbing data from multiple sources such as the stock market taken from Yahoo Finance (I don’t think any developer have implemented this great idea).

If you don’t have any Adobe software to manipulate your PDF documents, then I would suggest you to head to MergePDF which helps you combine multiple PDF files together for free and quickly. Since it comes free, it definitely has some limitations such as a maximum of 10 input files and individual file size must be 5MB.

Also, all uploaded files are immediately removed from the database after you’ve downloaded your combined PDF document due to security issues. MergePDF comes in handy especially if you access PDF documents frequently and sometimes when people send you a file in different parts, you can easily merge it using this useful and simple tool.

Another alternative tool is the popular PDFHammer. Not only does it provides a similar feature of merging documents, it’s also a web-based application that helps users re-arrange pages in any way you want and delte individual pages.

Most of you might have heard of iStock which features a large collection of stock photography. Of course, you would have to pay for them if you want the watermark to be removed. It doesn’t comes cheap – prices range from $1 to $27. If you don’t want to burn a hole in your pocket to get these images, then I would suggest you to try out a website called Photl.

It provides exclusive high resolution images and was touted as the “the owner and distributor of the largest collection of exclusive free photos”. You might wonder if it’s illegal to download these photos but as the founder explains on the site “All the photo images are subject to extended license on usage (Extended Royalty Free). They are absolutely free and are intended to be used in commercial activity.”

Comes in eight different languages, Photl enables you to search for stock photos which are taken by professional photographers. Users can filter their search by selecting the colors they particularly want and sort the results by number of downloads and date of download. This free service only limits up to 45MB but I bet you’ll hit the target easily as the photos there have large sizes. You can select three different sizes before you download (small – 1280X1024, medium – 1920X1440 and large – 4368X2912).

Photl also makes you search experience a better one by showing you the related keywords to your search. This allows you to browse similar images.

It is but normal for students sometimes to have a hard time making their writing activities and assignments. This is because writing in fact is a very technical ability that requires enough knowledge about target language and source language and grammar and all aspects of language you can think of.

Today, with the use of the internet, online writing services can now be availed by students at a very affordable and reasonable price.
