Do you use the Google Chrome Browser?
Below you’ll find 11 must have extensions to add to your browser. Some are for productivity, some are for peace of mind, and a couple are for creativity and inspiration.
If you’ve never added an extension before click here for the Google Web Store to explore your options.
When you add an extension it will appear to the right of the URL address bar.
All of the extensions we’ve shared below are free, and appear in no particular order. Each of the Links go to the Extension in the Google Web Store.
If you are using Facebook Advertising and have the Facebook Pixel on your website, this Chrome Extension is a must have.
It allows you to check at a glance if your pixels are loading and firing correctly on your pages.
For us this means peace of mind. We use Facebook a lot and if the pixel stops firing for any reason we want to know so we can get it fixed ASAP.
Click Here for the Facebook Pixel Helper.
NUMBER 2 has been removed as the extension is no longer available 🙁 – This was the Facebook Turbo Ad Finder Extension which I loved because it stopped me getting ‘sucked in' to the News Feed! I am currently researching other options and I will add one once I had a chance to check it. If you're using one please let me know.
Time is our most prized community and when I use this extension I feel like I get time back – sort of 🙂 This extension allows you to speed up (or slow down if you need to) videos you’re watching. I’ve used it on video’s in websites, courses, YouTube, Facebook and Vimeo. It’s a must have for anyone that watches any video online.

Do you find your computer runs slowly some days?
It could be because you have a lot of tabs open in your browser. This extension allows you to save all open tabs in One Tab – your computer performs better and it’s so much easier to locate the tab you want.

This is a great extension if you use Google Docs and need the ability to work on your documents when you aren’t connected to the internet.

You can add links you use a lot, see the weather and customise it to suit your needs. A great option is you are visually stimulated.
