Build your first Chrome Extension

Chrome Extensions is an untapped market. The extension adds to the user's browser experience and has great potential because

• People barely uninstall extensions
• The barrier to install is low
• Extensions are "always on"
• People pay for many of them

For 2 million Chrome users there are only 200,000 users. There is a huge potential user market.

So how can you build your Chrome Extension?

Building a Chrome Extension is easier than platform products because they focus on delivering only one or two features.
