## Description

**PinBoostr Internal Linking Assistant** helps you build a stronger internal linking
structure — one of the most effective and overlooked on-page SEO wins.

The plugin scans your published posts and pages, looks for places where you mention
the title of another piece of your own content, and suggests turning that text into
an internal link. You review each suggestion and insert it with one click.

Better internal linking helps your readers discover more of your content and helps
search engines understand how your pages relate to each other.

#### Features

 * **Scan posts** — analyze all your published posts and pages in one click.
 * **Relevance-ranked suggestions** — a custom matching engine builds anchors only
   from your post titles and weighs each phrase by how rare it is across your whole
   site (IDF). Boilerplate and common-ingredient phrases are ignored, and any phrase
   that could point to more than one post is dropped, so every suggestion is specific
   and points to the right destination.
 * **One-click insert** — add a suggested link to the right spot in the post without
   opening the editor.
 * **Content scores** — every post gets an internal-linking health score (0–100)
   based on incoming links, outgoing links, depth, and untapped opportunities.
 * **Site stats** — see average score, total internal links, orphan pages (no incoming
   links), and dead-end pages (no outgoing links) at a glance.
 * **Editor sidebar** — see suggestions for the post you are currently editing.
 * **Safe by design** — links are only inserted into plain text, never inside existing
   links or HTML tags. Existing links are left untouched.
 * **No lock-in** — no account required, nothing is sent to external servers.

#### Privacy

This plugin runs entirely on your own site. It does not collect, send, or store 
any data on external servers.

#### About

This free tool is built and maintained by [PinBoostr](https://pinboostr.com), a

## Installation

 1. Upload the `pinboostr-internal-linking-assistant` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/`
    directory, or install it through the Plugins screen in WordPress.
 2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** screen.
 3. Open **Link Suggestions** in the admin menu and click **Analyze my content**.

## FAQ

### How does it decide what to suggest?

It builds anchor phrases only from your post and page titles, then scores each phrase
by how rare it is across your whole site. When a distinctive title phrase appears
as plain (un-linked) text inside another post, that is suggested as an internal 
link to the post the phrase names. Common phrases that appear everywhere (like ingredient
lists or storage instructions) and phrases that could match more than one post are
ignored, so suggestions stay specific and relevant.

### Will it change my content automatically?

No. Nothing is changed until you click **Insert** on a specific suggestion. Each
insert links the first un-linked occurrence of the phrase in that post.

### Does it touch my existing links?

No. The plugin never modifies text that is already inside a link or an HTML tag.

### Does it send my content anywhere?

No. All scanning happens on your own server. Nothing is sent to any external service.
