Seeing nofollow links in Google Chrome
Here’s a simple trick to view nofollow links in Google Chrome. Just drag and drop the following button to your bookmark bar and hit it whenever you want to see links with the rel=nofollow HTML microformat:
This bookmarklet inserts a tiny bit of CSS into the top of the page you’re currently viewing. The CSS is similar to that which is used in other nofollow highlighting methods:
- a[rel~=nofollow] {
- border:1px dashed #852! important;
- background-color:#fcc! important;
- }
Try it out on a page with nofollowed links!
By the way, this bookmarklet also works in Opera & Firefox (but there are simpler ways to handle it in Firefox).

Nice tip, simple and effective. I find some tools and add ons are over complicated and have too many features that you will never use.
