Remember, don't trust me on this.  :)  Their wiki, however, is REALLY
good. 

A quick look at the wiki indicates that there are a bunch of different
tools for it. 

http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AUR_Helpers

Now, which ones are good, I'm afraid I don't know.  What I like about
Arch is that I'm really pretty much a CLI person, and it gets in my way
less than others--also, its smaller, and probably more technically
proficient community means more respect between developers and users,
than say Fedora, where I just saw the quote (about NVidia) ..."then you
bring in the expectations of the people who work on Fedora, not run it."
Which adds credence to the oft heard lament, "Do these developers
actually *use* this garbage they're developing?"
