View a Web Page as 'Googlebot'

View a Web Page as 'Googlebot': "Viewing the result in your Web browser, client-sided rendering (for example execution of JavaScript) isn't omitted, but links/images won't show/work if their URL is relative to your root directory (relative links are evil from a SEO's POV, your content management system (CMS) should provide absolute URIs). SE crawlers do not execute JS and they won't download nor make use of plug-ins, thus check the result page's source code too. Tip: install PrefBar (Mozilla/Firefox browsers). PrefBar lets you choose the user agent name, you can switch JavaScript/Flash on and off and more."
