What our analysis found

Majestic Backlink Analyzer, used by 50,000 people, showed no malicious code in Extension Auditor's review. Its permissions mean it can inject scripts into pages. It comes from a trusted publisher and was last updated in January 2026.

Analyst notes

The extension is a legitimate SEO tool from a trusted publisher. All network calls are to the publisher's own API domains. The permissions are used as intended: activeTab and scripting for on-page link analysis, identity for OAuth authentication. No suspicious code, data collection is disclosed, and the privacy policy is from the same domain. The risk-engine's critical finding is based solely on permission heuristics, not actual malicious code.

About this extension

Majestic backlink analysis straight into your browser.

Read the publisher’s full description

Over 60,000 installations. Get instant link counts and see who is linking to the page you are browsing without having to go to a separate link analysis tool. FREE backlink count data with much more detail for Majestic.com account holders. This backlink checker from Majestic gives you a really fast way to see the strength of any page based on its backlink information. Because Majestic crawls the whole web, it does not have to rely on a third party for the data. You can immediately see the Trust Flow, Citation Flow and Visibility Flow for any web page directly on the URL bar and you can see summary information about the number of domains and URLs linking to this page. Topical Trust Flow is now integrated into the tool. This now shows you the topic (or category) of each backlink. Information provided free includes: Link Profile charts, link counts at the URL, subdomain and root level and three Flow Metric scores from 0-100 for pages you visit (speed limits apply). Majestic subscribers can very easily link their account to the extension and can then see more detail about links to the page your browser is on. including: *Backlink Detail*: A list of the 10 strongest backlinks to the page (with a link to more), including the URL, anchor text, Citation Flow, Trust Flow, Visibility Flow and the dates first and last seen. The primary Topical Trust Flow is also embedded. *Anchor Text Detail*: A list of the 10 strongest anchor texts (with a link to more) used in links to the URL, including the link counts and domain counts linking with this text and the relative Citation Flow and Trust Flow associated with these links. The primary Topical Trust Flow is also embedded. *Tools*: You can easily delve deeper into URLs by using many of Majestic's backlink analysis tools directly from the extension. *Add to Bucket*: If you are interested in reviewing the URL later, you can press the "Add to Bucket" button to add the URL straight into your Majestic account for later backlink analysis. Who wrote this Analyzer and How? Majestic is one of the UK's fastest growing tech companies, ranked 18th in 2014 in the Deloitte fast 50 list. Unlike many tools that rely on scraping third party data, Majestic is one of the largest web crawlers on the planet, collecting data directly from the web. It even has its own search engine. This independence has made Majestic's Trust Flow metric one of the most reliable and consistent ways to evaluate pages on the internet at scale the score, which is a log score between 0 and 100, gives a valuable insight. More recently, Majestic has launched and integrated Topical Trust Flow into into the Chrome extension, giving more precise analysis of a URL's power and influence. Privacy Majestic does not track your crawling behavior at all in this plugin and it will not slow down your browsing. Until you click on the extension, it remains idle and passes no data at all. At that point it simply looks up the data we have already indexed regarding the URL you are currently visiting. Majestic's full privacy policy is described at https://majestic.com/company/privacy-policy
