Google Chrome Extensions Are Here!


Google-Chrome-ExtensionsWell there has been a big wait for the release of extensions for Google Chrome and the wait is finally over!  You can now download and install all sorts of cool add-on extensions to extend the capability of Google Chrome.  There have been many a Firefox user who has refused to make the switch to Chrome because there were no way to add features to the browser like there was on firefox.  Well this is no longer an issue, since the most recent Chrome Update.

Google Chrome Extensions Are Here!

Now you can add features and tools to your standard installation of Google Chrome on the fly.  Most all of the extensions are very fast to install and intuitive to use.  Once an extension is installed you will see a new button appear to the right side of the omnibar and you can then access the new feature very easily.  This makes for a great shortcut list to all of the extensions on your “web desktop” so to speak.  If you add all your favorite google apps and google services, this may be a look into the future of what the Google Chrome OS may look like.

You can start downloading all the cool extensions for Google Chrome right here:

https://chrome.google.com/extensions/

You will have to update Chrome first by going to “about” and then choosing “update”.

Once you have the latest version of Google Chrome you can open a new page and access extensions at the bottom right of this screen.

There are many very useful and cool extensions already available for Google Chrome and soon enough there will be many more. There are many developers working on updates to the old firefox plugins to port them for Chrome and many new mashups on the way too.

What Can I Do With Chrome Extensions?

Well there is a wide variety of extensions to choose from, everything from password managers, to social networking add ons, to seo plugins.  It really depends on what you use the internet for.  There are many available so you will be sure to find some that suite your needs no matter what you are looking for.

Here is a list of some that I have found useful and think you will too:

Chrome Milk : An easy task manager app that allows you to keep all your to-dos in one place.

Fastest Fox : This is one of the coolest add-ons for Chrome, it allows you to make your browsing experience fast and more efficient, this is a must have for Chrome lovers.

One Number : Access your gmail, google voice, google reader and google wave updates all in one place!

goo.gl URL Shortener : Googles own url shortening service.

Chome SEO : Check page rank, alexa rank and a lot more with the click of a button.

Stumble Upon : Add stumbleupon.com usability to your Chrome Browser.

Picnik : Photo editing on the fly has never been easier than using this great Chrome extension.

Ping.fm : This Chrome Extension makes use of the mobile ping.fm api to allow you to update all your social statuses in small window very easily.

There are many more extensions out there but these are the ones that I have tried out and found to be very useful in my day to day operations online. I will add more to the list as I find more Chrome extensions that I find useful.  If you have any suggestions, you are welcome to comment below and I will add your favorites to the list here too.

Thanks for coming back to the Webmaster Business Plan.
We are always glad to see people coming back for more great Webmaster Videos, Webmaster Pod Casts and our highly anticipated "Webmaster Business Plan - e-Course". Here is a free eBook to show our appreciation : 5 Ways To Get Free Instant Web Site Traffic!

What Does Google Bot See On Your Website?


There has been much discussion in the SEO world about how to tell what exactly the Google bot see’s when it is crawling your site.  I know that in the past many have suggested using simple text browsers like Lynx would do the trick and for the most part this was a good way to guestimate what the Google bot may view your webpage like.  However, now there is a better way.

If you are not already using the Google Webmaster Tools I highly suggest you start now.  The Google Webmaster Tools service has now released a new feature to allow webmasters like you and me to get a glimpse into the behind the scenes view of the Google search world.

Now you can actually enter any web page or domain name and have the Google Bot manually download and Display what it sees!  This is amazing if you are into search engine optimization, because now you there will be no question of what is getting indexed on your page.  You can be assured of what scripts are or are not search engine friendly because you can actually SEE what is being pulled from each page on your web site.

Of course this will be more important to people running many scripts or have many layers on their sites, if you are using a simple html page, you can pretty much see how google will see your site by loading it in a normal web browser.   However, I thought that this would come in handy for anybody that wants to know what google is really taking away from your website and trying to boost their own web site traffic and search engine standings.

As Always To Success,

Nick Simpson
