Internal Links Manager

Description

What does Internal Links Manager do?

You simply provide a keyword and an URL. Whenever the keyword appears on your site, it sets links automatically to the given URL.

Here is an example: You have written a blogpost on “How to learn guitar”. Now you want the URL “yourdomain.com/how-to-learn-guitar” to be automatically linked whenever the keyword “learn guitar” appears on your website. You simply navigate to “Add link” within the menu and provide the requested parameters (mainly keyword + URL).

Why (internal) link building is so important

Improve your UX: Give your users the opportunity to discover relevant content with one click. Link important keywords with an related link. Your users stay longer on your website and get relevant information. As a side effect it improves your bounce rate, which is one of Googles ranking factors.

It's a good plugin if you only work with Gutenberg. But if you use the bricksbuilder it does not work on sites and templates built with it. In custom post types it does also not work, if the template is built with bricksbuilder.

Shout out to the guys supporting the plugin. After reaching out they were able to quickly resolve my issue by pointing out the formatting issue of my CSV import file (I used a comma delimiter instead of a semicolon) Their adapted version worked right away. These small things do matter a lot. 5 stars from me.

This plugin is a little untended to by its maintainer, but it has such a minimal impact that it's not an issue. It does not work natively with Advanced Custom Fields, but can be edited to do that somewhat easily.
