Chrome Extensions for Grammar Check
Grammarly:
It is a tool which could have been available to our school days. We are not very fluent in English in terms of grammar and spelling mistakes too. Grammarly is the tool that helps you to rectify your grammar with the help of an extension.
Content writing is an essential part of blogging, and writing content with the proper grammar always impresses viewers and Google to take notice. It gives you traffic and ranking.
Chrome Extensions for Keyword Research
What’s My SERP (WMS Everywhere):
The first step in Blogging is Keyword research. Keyword research on google is the most common technique of Blogger.
Two years back, I always used Keywords Everywhere, but the problem started when this got paid, and there was no option for keyword research for more than six months; finally, I found a chrome extension called WMS Everywhere.
WMS chrome extension shows you keywords search volume and CPC (Cost per click). You can compare it and decide the right keywords for your blog.
Ubersuggest:
Like WMS everywhere, Ubersuggest is a Free and accurate extension. I have been using this extension to compare the keywords search volume before using it.
Ubersuggest shows Search volume with CPC, and it also gives you SEO difficulty (SD) of the keywords. Ubersugest also shows SEO metrics graph to check the monthly ranking.
Chrome Extensions for Competitor Research
SEO Quake: This is created by one of the best Digital Marketing tool company called SEMrush.
SEO Quake is one more extension to check organic search data with SEO Metrics like keyword difficulty (KD) with a single click of a button. I use SEO Quake primarily to see Domain Authority and Domain Traffic of competitor’s site. It helps me to find a gap between competitors where I can rank my keywords quickly based on the below parameters:
- Domain Backlinks
- Subdomain Backlinks
- Google Index
- Bing Index
- Alexa Rank
- Age
- SEMrush rank
MOZ:
This extension is developed by MOZ, and I use it to check link metrics and site analysis scores. I can see Page authority, Domain authority, and significant Spam score.
It helps to check the on-page status of competitors’ sites and do your SEO plan to counter-attack.
Chrome Extensions for Email Marketing
GMass:
I use Gmass to send a mass email directly from my Gmail account. It is a straightforward tool to use; compose your email as you do every time and in the second step, add a list of email IDs in the “TO” box.
Here, you don’t need to add email IDs in the “BCC” section. You can add all the mail IDs in the TO section. It maintains privacy by not showing email IDs to other recipients.
Currently, GMass allows you to send 2000 emails per day. It might be one email to 2000 or 4 emails to 500 each.
Hunter:
Email marketing can’t be done without email IDs. It is essential to find Email IDs. Hunter helps you to find the email IDs of your prospective client list with ease.
All you need is to add the chrome extension of Hunter in the browser with your official Id only, and then you can find the email Ids of the senior authorities of that particular company.
Check My Link:
This extension will not help you check or send emails but generate meaningful data from a prospective client’s website. For every site that has not been updated for a few months, there are chances of broken links, Valid Links, and warnings.
You can collect such data and email it to those prospective clients and let them know the issues on the site where you can request to fix it. Such emails help you to build relationships and might be the lead for the tour business.
Chrome Extensions for Video Marketing
Vid IQ:
Video content is a trend today. According to a survey, Indians watch video content with an average of 2.5 hours per day. YouTubers are generating content and posting on YouTube and getting paid as well.
VidIQ is my favourite extension on YouTube. It helps you to analyze channel performance, Tags, Description, and Topics. You can take a reference and create your popular tags easily with the help of VidIQ.
Tube Buddy:
Tube Buddy is another must extension for YouTube content. You can judge both the tools and finalize your tags for your Video.
Both the extensions are free, and you can save the time of research to complete tags. You can also decide your topic based on giving data on trends.
