2. Ultra Edit

UltraEdit is a traditional code editor where you can write, highlight, fold, and otherwise manage your code – but there are some distinctive features that set it apart from other code editors.

You’ll get a chance to:

• find and replace lines and lists of lines in files
• highlight syntax for most coding languages
• pick an editor theme
• manage files from remote servers
• view an informative status bar showing last modification time for the file, the file size, and current line number

You can even add extremely long lines of code to this text editor – even up to 20,000 characters before wrap.

3. Ahrefs – a collection of SEO tools

Each freelance writer needs to optimise his or her content for SEO – and Ahrefs is the ultimate SEO tool for this.

You’ll get to use an array of features to plan out fully optimised content for your blog – some of the more prominent features include:

• a keyword research tool with a large number of keywords per word (the keyword “productive” returns 35,000+ related keywords, which is much more than what you get with competitor tools)
• traffic estimates for the top 10 pages on any subject in the Keyword explorer
• keyword difficulty scores that show how difficult it will be to rank for a certain keyword given the competition (you’ll also get easier-to-rank-for alternative keywords)

The keyword database is updated on a monthly basis, and you can list all your favorite and most frequently used keywords in one place – and that’s just the tip of Ahrefs’ iceberg.
