Chrome is one of the most used browsers online. Aggressive campaigns from Google helped Google Chrome to expand rapidly and increase its user base steadily. Chrome is also one of the most used Browsers among Marketers, and this is mostly because of the cool little tools many companies offer for Chrome. These little tools which give your Browser additional functionalities in Chrome are called Plugins or Extensions, and you can install them from the Extension Directory to add additional functions to your browser.
Plugins are fantastic but they need to work, and we need to make sure that the information shared with the plugin does not include any private stuff. Be aware that
companies develop plugins which connect to your browser. Always be mindful of what you activate, when you use it and which information you are about to type into your browser.
There are many different Plugins or Extensions for Marketers, and today I wanted to resume the best Chrome Plugins for Marketers in 2018 that I am continually using during my daily work but also some new interesting ones we found during the research for this article.
