Checks all links on a page for any external links that do not have the attribute rel="nofollow" and highlights them in a red border.
The attribute rel="nofollow" provides a way for webmasters to tell search engines "Don't follow links on this page" or "Don't follow this specific link."
This tool will add a red border around any links that are leading away from the current website that do not have this attribute.
Options:
* Auto enable for all websites - highlight all external links on all webpages when you visit them.
* Select colour for link highlighter - change the colour of the border that highlights links.

Does its job well! Can't complain.
Works great! It's a very helpful plugin for affiliate marketers that makes our life so much easier! :)
Cannot get rid of Highlighter EVEN once deleted - the main problem is that somehow the link highlights are following one of customers live websites around the internet - showing dotted lines on different browsers. Even when deleted and cleared all browser cache, it is still highlighting URLs on my websites I create - EVEN on other devices using different browsers? How has this happened? surely this extension is browser specific and should not highlight links from other browsers when visiting a website ESPECIALLY after deletion?? I am totally confused and have to answer to my customer why his website is covered in highlighted boxes - I need to remove highlighting from his website - Tell me how asap.Urgent
Its good but limited options - can we change style
Works great. Thanks!
Perfect! Works as advertised :-)
