Define keyword link rules, choose the pages they point to (your “pillar” pages), and the plugin inserts the links into your content — no manual hunting through posts. **Free features** * **Up to 5 keyword link rules** — map a keyword to a target page. * **Pillar pages** — designate the important pages your rules link to. * **Manual, per-post linking** — links are applied as you publish or update a post, so you stay in control of what changes. * **Basic visual link map** — see which rules are linking where. * **URL exclusions** — keep specific URLs out of automatic linking. * **Block & Classic editor support** — works with the standard WordPress editors. The free version runs entirely on your own site and makes **no external/third-party API calls**. **Upgrade to Pro** Internal Link Machine Pro unlocks unlimited rules, bulk processing across all existing posts, pillar-page link weighting, priority + anchor-text control per rule, expanded keyword-variation matching, CSV export, Elementor support, and an AI-assisted keyword scanner. Learn more at https://bigbad.agency/. ### Source Code All JavaScript and CSS shipped in this plugin (in `admin/js/` and `admin/css/`) is the original, uncompiled, human-readable source. No build tools (webpack, Rollup, npm, Composer, minifiers, transpilers) are used to generate the distributed files— what you install is exactly the source, so it can be read, studied, and modified directly. ## Installation 1. Upload the `internal-link-machine` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`, or install it from the Plugins screen in WordPress. 2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** screen. 3. Open **Internal Link Machine** in the admin menu. 4. Create a pillar page (a link target), then add a keyword rule pointing to it. 5. Publish or update a post — matching keywords are linked automatically. ## FAQ ### How many link rules can I create in the free version? Up to 5. Internal Link Machine Pro removes the limit. ### Does the free version send my content anywhere?
