- Darwin Santos
- I'm an SEO chrome extension builder, the one who built GSC Guardian. This is the best chrome extension for SEO I have ever tested. Absolutely great job! I may reach out for a collab, if interested.
- Extra Virgi
- I used the extension when it was still called SEO Robots Inspector. I love the innovative idea of using the icon to instantly show the indexing status of the page. A really smart way to use the extension without having to directly interact with it. Now the extension is heading into a new direction to become a SEO all-in-one toolbox. This new version requires more sensitive user permissions, which is to be expected with new features. Personally, I prefer the simpler, less intrusive version but I'm sure that many people are looking forward to the new features. Keep up the great work!
- Héctor Abril
- I have been using it for a month now in my day to day work. I think I've gotten used to it. The color system is very convenient for detecting inconveniences. It helps me to be a little more productive.
- David Garcia
- Simple but very useful application to discover urls blocked by robots.txt. It has become a tool to work with in my day to day life.
- Daniel Peris
- Awesome Chrome SEO extension to check anything related to SEO robots (crawling, indexing) Good job Esteve!
- Esteve Castells
- What can I say: Great chrome SEO extension to see if a URL is blocked via robots.txt in a easy way. Also for index/follow meta attributes.
