Anahita kumar (ID: 00000047e09554c4) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 11/09/2022 Not a reliable product. It's mostly showing false even when I manually inspected it was clearly mentioned "noindex" and "nofollow". However, sometimes work or show true. Maybe doesn't work when there are plenty of link, but not sure. Just can't be reliable.

This extension shows you the No Follow links by highlighting them in an easy to see red box. The links that are NOT highlighted in the red box are Follow Links. Great time-saver!
