Zbib red-dot Extension
I’m not associated with Zotero, they don’t have their own extension for ZoteroBib. I used the code posted in their forums under “ZoteroBib as a chrome extension” They do have their own free extension and tools for the more academic (heavy duty) Zotero and they’re awesome. They provide zbib.org as a fast and simple version (just no extension). There are other citation websites such as citation machine (which Purdue Owl uses), but I believe that zbib.org is better.
Help for Zoterobib is on the bottom of the page (zbib.org) and they have a great FAQ and user forums.
Hopefully this makes your writing a little easier.
