v1.0.25

Highlight paid ads in search results

  • AddedPaid ads in search results are highlighted in color so they are easier to distinguish from organic listings. The extension does not block ads or change the order of results.
  • AddedOne setting covers supported search engines: highlighting is on by default and a previous opt-out is preserved. The search engine is detected from the open page, not from your interface language or country.
  • AddedFour colors (amber, blue, violet, green), three styles (outline with background, outline only, background only) and corner rounding of 0, 8 or 16 pixels; shades adapt to the search page’s light or dark theme.
  • AddedThe gear at the top opens Settings: extension theme (system, light, dark), ad highlighting with light and dark previews, and What’s New.
  • AddedA release announcement appears once after an update and links to this page; it can be reopened in Settings. Everything is available in Russian and English.
  • ImprovedVerified text ads and sponsored product and service cards in regular web search are highlighted; highlighting updates as results and carousels load and runs locally without sending search queries.
  • FixedFixed a conflict with an older highlight stylesheet that could leave an orange outline after choosing a different color; the help page opens without content security policy errors.

How to customize it

Open the extension → select the gear to the right of the tabs → choose a color, style and corner rounding. Changes are saved immediately. Uncheck “Highlight paid search ads” to turn it off. If an open search page still shows an old style after an update, reload the page.

Coverage and privacy

A result is highlighted only when a combination of advertising signals is found in the search page’s markup. New or unverified formats may remain unhighlighted, so an absence of color does not prove a result is organic. Dedicated Images, Maps, Shopping and AI search modes are outside the stated coverage. Highlighting runs locally in your browser and does not send search queries to our server.

v1.0.24

An AI workspace, a refreshed interface and instant link checks

  • AddedThe AI tab is now a workspace for the current page: Title, Description and H1 variants, a direct answer, FAQ and an action plan, with one-click copying.
  • AddedLinks and Images identify issues without network requests: HTTP links, internal nofollow links, internal UTM tags, empty anchors, images without alt text or dimensions, and duplicates.
  • AddedLink checks list redirects with their final destinations and group external links by domain.
  • ImprovedA calmer blue-and-white interface with consistent buttons, aligned tabs, refined typography and a dark theme.
  • ImprovedThe SEO score explains its verdict, calculation and detected issues, with a suggestion of where to start.
  • ImprovedThe extension remembers your tab when you return to the same page; shortcuts 1–9 and C and built-in Russian and English help are available.
  • ImprovedAI features run faster and more reliably, generation can be cancelled, and non-Russian browser interfaces automatically hide Yandex-specific tools.
  • FixedSitemap checks now time out instead of hanging; link and image-size checks handle servers with restrictions more reliably.
v1.0.23

Faster everyday audits and a more reliable GEO score

  • ImprovedThe Audit tab is more compact: Title, Description, H1 and URL are immediately visible, with the SEO score and deductions in one strip.
  • ImprovedThe AI action plan and PDF export moved to the AI tab to keep everyday metadata checks focused.
  • ImprovedImproved typography, text sizes, dark theme, Russian and English labels, keyboard navigation and error messages.
  • FixedThe GEO score is consistent across browsers: temporary network failures no longer lower the score or get cached as results.
  • FixedThe extension finds llms.txt references in robots.txt and FAQ content in collapsed accordions.
  • FixedThe recrawl button opens the correct Yandex Webmaster section and copies the full page URL.
  • ImprovedThe compact bottom audit bar shows actual H1/H2 counts and links to detailed link and image lists.
  • FixedPDF reports include only an AI plan that was actually generated; the previous synthetic AI score was removed.
v1.0.22

A verified AI action plan and more reliable audits

  • ImprovedAI plans are checked against page data to avoid displaying invented services, prices, guarantees and other unsupported claims.
  • ImprovedIf the AI cannot safely revise its answer, a useful six-step plan with explicit placeholders for real data replaces the error.

  • ImprovedCompleted English translations of all tabs, dynamic results and error messages.
  • ImprovedImproved readability, fixed the dark theme and added keyboard navigation between tabs.

  • FixedUpdated outdated links to the Be1 and CheckTrust tools.
v1.0.21

English interface, transparent SEO scoring and white-label PDF reports

  • AddedThe interface follows the browser language (Russian or English), including Audit, AI and GEO tabs, the footer and PDF reports.
  • ImprovedAI plans provide more specific, ready-to-use text: a new title and description, FAQ questions and answers, and a direct-answer paragraph, in the page’s language.
  • AddedThe GEO tab lists the most important improvements for AI search in plain language, ordered by severity.
  • ImprovedThe SEO score uses a single calculation: 100 minus the weights of detected issues, with each deduction explained.

v1.0.20

An AI tab and transparent SEO scoring

  • AddedThe new AI tab turns page headings and text into a numbered list of specific, explained edits with one button.
  • ImprovedSEO scoring now checks quality, including title and description length, emoji and H1/H2 counts, instead of almost always reporting 100/100.
