There are a huge amount of add-ons and toolbars available to enhance your Internet experience or, in our case, make our jobs easier. This is a list of the most popular ones being used at SEO Inc.
1) Web developer toolbar: We use this toolbar ALL THE TIME; to check server headers, take a look at the document outline, quickly see what a layout will look like at 800×600 (although no one seems to care anymore), measure something on the screen using the very convenient ruler feature.
