I built a free portfolio page for Chrome extension devs that gets you more installs
Hey everyone,
Something I kept noticing after talking to a bunch of extension developers: they had no place to send people when they wanted to say "here's everything I've built."
Your GitHub shows code. Your Web Store profile exists but it's pretty buried. Posting on Reddit means linking one extension at a time. There's really no equivalent of a portfolio page for extension developers the way there is for designers or open source contributors.
So that's what we built into ExtensionBooster. It's called the Showcase, and it's basically your own public developer page at app.extensionbooster.com/u/yourname where all your extensions live together.
The reason I think it actually helps with installs (not just looks):
Backlinks that count. Each extension card on your showcase links directly to your Chrome Web Store listing. When you drop your showcase URL in a Reddit bio, GitHub profile, Twitter, or anywhere really, you're creating a quality backlink that points back at your store listings. More backlinks from relevant places do help your organic ranking inside the store.
One link for everything. Instead of awkwardly linking to five different store pages in a Reddit comment, you send one URL. People see all your work, trust you more as a developer, and are more likely to install.
Shareability on social. When someone shares your showcase link on Twitter or LinkedIn, it automatically generates a proper preview card with your name and extensions. No extra design work needed.
Knowing where your traffic comes from. The analytics tab shows visitor countries, referrers, and device breakdown. So when you post somewhere and want to know if it actually drove installs, you can see it.
Free tier covers the basics. You get your custom handle, standard layouts, and the SEO stuff with no card required. Premium unlocks custom banners, all four layout options, and the full analytics view.
If you want to try it, claim your handle now before someone else grabs it. Then just add your extensions, throw the link in your GitHub bio and Reddit profile, and you're set.
Genuinely curious what you all are using right now for promotion outside the Web Store. And if you set one up, drop your link in the comments. I'll look through all of them and leave some real feedback.
Disclosure: I'm one of the people building ExtensionBooster. Posting because I think this actually solves a real problem for extension devs, not just to advertise.
