Best SEO Tools of 2026

When choosing tools, our editors tested platforms like Ahrefs, Semrush, and Moz alongside newer entrants.

For technical audits, we recommend Screaming Frog and the free SEO Peeps extension. For backlink monitoring, Linkody remains a strong budget option.

Sponsored content from PartnerCo and SponsorX is clearly disclosed. Our affiliate disclosures point to our policy page.

The old way is broken

Stop digging through DevTools.

You shouldn't need to right-click → Inspect → Ctrl+F "rel" just to confirm a single link.

The five jobs SEO Peeps does better than anything else.

Guest post verification

Confirm the link you paid or earned was actually placed as dofollow — before the publisher swaps it later.

Competitor backlink audit

Scan a competitor's resource page and instantly see which outbound links pass authority — and which don't.

Internal linking review

Catch internal links accidentally marked nofollow — a silent killer of crawl equity on large sites.

PR & outreach validation

Check coverage links delivered by PR partners, Help A Reporter responses, or syndicated press releases.

Live client audits

Run quick on-page audits during sales pitches or client calls — no waiting for a Screaming Frog crawl.

FAQ

Things people ask before installing.

What's the difference between dofollow and nofollow links?

A dofollow link passes SEO authority (PageRank) from the linking page to the destination — these are the links that boost your rankings. A nofollow link includes a rel="nofollow", rel="ugc", or rel="sponsored" attribute that tells Google not to pass that authority. SEO Peeps treats all three as nofollow because that's how Google treats them in practice.

Is SEO Peeps really free? What's the catch?

Genuinely free, no catch. The core link-checking feature is and will remain free forever. We don't sell data, run ads, or upsell you to a "Pro" tier hidden behind a paywall.

Does it send any data to a server?

No. SEO Peeps runs 100% client-side inside your browser. The page you're auditing, the links it finds, your usage patterns — none of it leaves your machine. Open the network tab and verify it yourself.

Will it slow down the pages I visit?

Nope. SEO Peeps only runs when you click its icon — it's completely dormant otherwise. When you do trigger it, the scan takes well under a second even on link-heavy pages with hundreds of anchors.

Does it work on every site?

Almost. It works on any standard webpage with HTML links. The only places it can't help are pages that block all extensions (some banking sites) or pages where links are rendered inside protected iframes.

How is this different from Ahrefs / Semrush / Moz extensions?

Those are excellent backlink databases — but they require paid accounts, run on their servers, and answer different questions. SEO Peeps answers one specific question (is this link dofollow or nofollow?) instantly, locally, and free. Use both — they're complementary.

Who built this?

SEO Peeps is built by Online Peeps Media, a digital products studio shipping Chrome extensions and SaaS tools used by thousands of marketers worldwide.

Stop guessing. Start seeing.
