This Chrome extension was created for internal tasks as part of my development journey to learn programming. If you have any suggestions for improvements, please feel free to share them with me.

Normally, I create websites and focus on SEO, and I've taken a more programmatic approach to my SEO work. That's why I have several small projects like this one, to learn coding.

My approach to SEO is holistic, so I work on speed optimization, security optimization, user intent, and conversion optimization. Everything needs to come together seamlessly, and in my view, the most important metric is client ROI.
