Something like Webmaster tools

[mrmanchild]

I don't want to use webmaster tools on all of my sites since I'm hearing it is bad to have Google know about your network of sites.

Is there any program/site/subscription (preferably free) that monitors keywords like Webmaster tools does? I like how it finds all of the long tail stuff that my site gets found under so that I can try and focus a bit more on them too.

There's also Bing webmaster tools, and services like Ahrefs and SEMRush to get some data. But GWT is unique since you're getting the data that's most important - Google's.

Only Google can give you Google's data.

I don’t know people are afraid of using Google webmasters and Google Analytics. There is no harm in using these tools. Google has tonne of ways of discovering your website network otherwise, but who cares for it. Google has zillion of websites in its index and it cannot keep track of activities of each and every website.

Couldn't you just register a bunch of gmail accounts and distribute your sites across them?

That's what I do and exactly the reason I never understand why people are so afraid of using GWT.

that's just way too much upkeep for me. i hate having a ton of accounts and passwords and trying to track of what is connected to what. it is an option though however, thanks.
