I Built a Chrome Extension to Check Blogger SEO While Writing

Blogger is a simple publishing platform, but one thing it doesn't provide is a complete on-page SEO workflow inside the editor.

If you publish regularly, you may find yourself manually checking titles, meta descriptions, URL slugs, headings, images, links, and readability before publishing.

That’s the problem I wanted to solve with a Chrome extension: Blogger SEO & Readability Assistant.

What Does It Check?

The extension analyzes a Blogger post and checks several common on-page SEO factors, including:

Title length
Meta description length
URL slug formatting
Keyword placement
H2 and H3 headings
Image alt text
Internal and external links
Word count
Sentence length
Readability
Passive voice

The goal isn't to replace professional SEO tools. Instead, it works as a lightweight pre-publishing checklist directly in the browser.

Why Build It for Blogger?

There are plenty of SEO tools available, but many are designed around WordPress or standalone websites.

Blogger users often have to move between the Blogger editor and external SEO tools.

A Chrome extension can simplify that workflow by analyzing the content while you're already editing the post.

Editing SEO Elements

Another useful part of the extension is the ability to work with basic Blogger SEO elements without repeatedly switching between tools.

For example, you can review your title, description, and slug and make improvements before publishing.

That makes it useful for bloggers who publish frequently and want a consistent SEO workflow.

Who Can Use It?

The extension is mainly useful for:

Blogger developers and site owners
SEO beginners
Solo bloggers
Affiliate marketers
Content creators
People managing multiple Blogger sites

It can be especially useful if you're building a publishing workflow where every article needs to pass the same basic SEO checks.

Full Guide

I wrote a complete guide covering the extension, its features, and how to use it with Blogger.

Final Thoughts

A browser extension won't replace keyword research, technical SEO, Search Console, or a proper content strategy.

But catching basic on-page SEO problems before publishing can save time.

For Blogger users, having those checks available directly in the browser can make the publishing process much more consistent.
