Check PageRank and Alexa Ranking of a Page Easily in Chrome
Just install the SEO Status Pagerank/Alexa Toolbar extension in your beta version of Google Chrome, and you’ll have a new icon that shows off the ranking of the page you’re viewing. Mostly useful for webmasters, but if you’re an info-junkie, you might want it too.
Speed Dial for Chrome Makes Your Start Page Better
Ever wanted to customize the default Speed Dial page built into Google Chrome? Now you can with the Speed Dial extension, and most importantly, add a background picture. The only weird thing is that you have to use the icon in the address bar to add the pages to the speed dial—otherwise it’s easy enough to use.
Another Way to View Page Source in Google Chrome
Google Chrome normally opens the source view of the web page in its own new tab. To see a web page’s souce code you have to normally right-click on the page and choose “View Page Source”. If you prefer to spend most of your time on the keyboard and wanted to avoid extra mouse clicks then Google Chrome has a nice lilttle shortcut to get to the web page source code quickly.
Open a new tab in Google Chrome and type-in “view-source:http://the-web-address” like for example, “view-source:http://www.demogeek.com”
It’s a neat little shortcut if you prefer to interact with the keyboard the most.
