[FireFox] 6 add-ons Webmaster should be used

Firefox is a free yet highly secure search engine from Mozilla. It works on Windows, MacOS, Linux and be used by many users (including me). Because of the large add-ons world, FireFox has more features, help you to customize your websites, and can increase the traffic to them. Now, I want to list some add-ons which I used to develop my blogs:

1. Firebug
Firebug integrates with Firefox to put a number of essential development tools at your fingertips while you browse. You can edit, debug, and monitor CSS, HTML, and JavaScript live in any web page. You can also find and edit DOM (Direct Object Model) quickly.

2. Alexa Sparky
Alexa Internet's free Firefox extension! Alexa's extension accompanies you as you browse, providing you with Alexa data about the sites you visit without interrupting your browsing.


3. Web Developer Toolbar
This toolbar has all the tools that a designer would require to test the design and layout of a webpage such as in  analyzing style. It also allows you to view the site without images, shows the layout format, outlines tables, forms etc, validates the code, among the many other things that this addon can perform.

4. SEO for Firefox
SEO for Firefox pulls in many useful marketing data points to make it easy get a holistic view of the competitive landscape of a market directly in the search results. The data that you could view using this tool include page link data or the estimated total number of links pointing to pages in Yahoo, how many sites in Google are indexed, Alexa site rankings, the Page Rank stats (Google PageRank) as well as the number of subscribers of certain blogs.
5. FlagFox
Flagfox is an extension for Mozilla Firefox that shows a flag icon indicating the current website’s server location. It uses relatively little resources, and works by accessing an IP address location database contained within the extension rather than relying on top-level-domain roots like “.com” or “.uk”. Clicking the icon loads Geotool, which provides a map of the location as well as more detailed information such as the ISP, city, and local time. The context menu also provides quick access to information about the country of origin, as well as the ability to look up the domain’s registrant via Whois.

6. FireFTP
It is the good extension, help you to access your hosting via FTP account. You don't need to install any FTP software client, just enable this add-on in firefox. The speed of FireFTP is quick, enough to use.
