Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

Smart Internal Links helps you automatically find and insert relevant internal links in your posts. It analyzes your content and suggests opportunities to link to other posts on your site based on keyword matches, giving your SEO a significant boost.

Key Features:

  • Bulk Analysis Dashboard: Analyze your entire website or a subset of posts (Latest 25, 50, 100) at once to find internal linking opportunities.
  • Smart Link Detection: Automatically finds phrases in your content that match other post titles.
  • One-Click Linking: Insert internal links directly from the dashboard with a single click.
  • Post Editor Integration: Use the meta box in the Classic editor or the Gutenberg sidebar to analyze and link individually while writing.
  • Two-Tab Management: Separate tabs for “Available Links” (suggestions) and “Added Links” (history).
  • Intelligent Matching: Prioritizes strong 3-word matches over 2-word matches for better relevance.
  • Non-Destructive Injection: Links are stored in the database and rendered at display time — your post content is never modified.
  • Configurable Settings: Control maximum links per post, phrase sizes, post types to analyze, and more.

How It Works:

  • Analyze: The plugin scans your posts to find phrases that match the titles of other published posts.
  • Suggest: It presents the best linking opportunities, showing the keyword, source post, and target post.
  • Link: You review the suggestion and click “Add Link” to approve it. The link is then injected into the rendered content automatically.
