About

Search-engine optimisation lives and dies on the quality of a site’s link graph, yet most browsers still treat hyperlinks as homogenous blue underlines. Highlight Nofollow Links changes that reality in one click, drawing vivid dotted frames around every anchor whose rel attribute contains nofollow, ugc, or sponsored.

Zero-friction on/off workflow
Once the highlights have served their purpose—perhaps you have confirmed that all affiliate links are properly tagged—click the icon again and the marks vanish. Under the hood, the extension simply reinjects a restorative script that strips its own CSS class names, returning the DOM to its pristine state. This “stateless” design keeps memory overhead near zero and guarantees no visual artefacts survive a page refresh.

Faster QA cycles – Content editors can visually confirm sponsorship compliance before a post goes live, eliminating re-publishing churn.

Improved affiliate revenue – Marketers avoid costly leakage by ensuring every monetised link carries the correct attribute.

Cleaner codebases – Webmasters catch CMS plugins that silently inject non-compliant links, keeping templates tidy and search-engine friendly.

Educational clarity – Trainee SEOs see the practical difference between followed and nofollowed links in situ, accelerating classroom learning.
