About External Link Highlighter

External Link Highlighter instantly shows you every external link on any web page. Built by FHSEOHub for SEO professionals, link builders, and guest posting outreach specialists who need to spot outbound links fast without manually inspecting a page. WHAT IT DOES When you're checking dozens of pages a day for client link opportunities, manually hunting for external links wastes hours. This extension does it in one click. It scans the page, highlights every link that points off-site, and gives you a clean breakdown of what's there. KEY FEATURES One-click highlighting: External links are marked directly on the page so you can see them instantly while reading. Hover tooltips: Hover any highlighted link to see its full URL, destination domain, and rel attribute (DoFollow, NoFollow, Sponsored, or UGC). Page overview stats: See total external links, number of unique domains, and internal link count at a glance. Links grouped by domain: The popup organizes all external links by their destination domain, so you know exactly which sites a page links out to and how many times. DoFollow vs NoFollow detection: Instantly identify which external links pass link equity, the single most important signal for guest posting and link building. Copy all URLs: Export every external URL to your clipboard with one click. CSV export: Download a full report (URL, domain, anchor text, rel attribute, link type) for client reporting or prospecting spreadsheets. Locate on page: Jump straight to any link's exact position on the page. Icon badge counter: See the external link count on the toolbar icon before you even open the popup. Auto-highlight mode: Optionally highlight external links automatically on every page you visit. Subdomain control: Choose whether subdomains count as external or internal. WHO IT'S FOR - Link builders checking prospect pages for outbound link patterns - Guest posting outreach teams verifying live placements - SEO specialists auditing competitor link profiles - Content teams reviewing external references before publishing - Agencies preparing client link reports PRIVACY FIRST This extension does all its work locally in your browser. It does not collect, store, or transmit your browsing data. No account required. No tracking. No external servers. Built and maintained by FHSEOHub, a SaaS link building agency that understands what SEO professionals actually need.
