7 useful Google Chrome extensions for online marketers and SEOs

Increasing efficiency and efficacy should always be your goals. You should be able to do better work in less time and with fewer resources.

That’s where browser extensions can come in.

Here is a list of 7 very useful Google Chrome extensions that can help performance marketers, SEO professionals, content creators, and bloggers streamline their workflow and increase efficiency.

1. Grammarly

Grammarly is one of the must-have apps for you regardless of your field. 

It does not matter if you are an SEO professional who is creating meta titles and meta descriptions, a performance marketer who is writing new ad copies, a content writer who is creating new blog posts, or a product manager who is creating emails, Grammarly offers value to all.

Poor grammar can turn off readers — especially blog readers who are now drowning with options and distractions. Fine-tuning your writing and making it as error-free as possible is of utmost importance.

And a Grammarly browser extension for Google Chrome can help you with that.

There are two versions that Grammarly offers: free and premium.

The free version can help you spot many common issues, such as: spelling mistakes, grammatical errors, misuse of punctuation, etc.

The premium version takes it one step further and offers many more suggestions that can help you improve the tone, word choice, and clarity of your writing. You can also use the premium version to detect any plagiarized content.

4. Bitly

Shortened links are very important for online marketers. For example, when you are adding links to your tweet, you need shortened links, or you’ll just end up wasting precious character space.

However, shortening links multiple times a day via the usual route can be time-consuming and a waste of resources.

The Bitly Google Chrome extension helps you save time and enables you to very quickly shorten any URL. The extension also copies the shortened URL to your clipboard automatically, so you can just paste it wherever you need.

This is one of the must-have extensions for social media marketers. However, it is also very useful for performance marketers and content marketers as it allows you to customize long links with UTM parameters.
