New SEO Plugin for Wordpress: Internal Link Building
Note: If you download this, please link to this page from your blog or share it on StumbleUpon by clicking this button: 
Update 1 : The plugin has been downloaded 6200 + times! And many webmasters use it on multiple sites, so it’s probably being used on 8000 to 10,000 sites!
Update 2 : To download the plugin, you need to add my RSS feed to your reader. The download link is now in my RSS feed’s footer . That is to say you can find a link to download below any post, but only if you read via RSS.
Some folks have complained about the need to subscribe. And I understand where you’re coming from - it feels a little pushy and you probably already have a bunch of subscriptions.
But there are good reasons to subscribe to my rss feed (besides it being free):
1) To learn about updates to the plugin or about new plugins or valuable SEO tools and research I release.
2) To learn new SEO techniques. If my plugin is worth downloading, then aren’t my other SEO ideas also worth your attention?
Key info on Internal Link Building:
Internal Link Building gives you an admin panel to assign keywords to given destination URLs. The point being that your website will link within itself a la Wikipedia - every time a keyword occurs, it links to the page you defined.
So: You can rank like Wikipedia, without being Wikipedia. Ok, that’s maybe a slight exaggeration, but the tool should help you improve your internal navigation / link structure a lot.
The idea came to me from the sales copy for Jim Boykin’s Internet Marketing Ninjas, which apparently gives you access to a similar tool along with all the other goodies it offers. Kudos to Jim for the inspiration.
Functionality Specifics:
1. This plugin allows you to mass-upload keywords. So you just need to prepare a CSV file in Excel and then copy-paste it into the mass-upload box in your admin panel and then click upload! This is great for larger sites targeting multiple keywords that want to speed things up.
2. It’s up to you whether you make cAsE ReLeVaNT to your links. Check the “Exact Match” checkbox for it to only match when the case is the same as you typed the word into the admin panel. Leave it unchecked to have all cases link to your selected page.
3. Post-level overrides of globally-assigned keywords. My bright friend Maki, of Dosh Dosh Internet Marketing, pointed out that similar plugins exist. While that is the case, existing plugins do not allow post-level overriding of a given keyword. So if I wanted to link to my homepage every time the word SEO or the phrase internet marketing was used, but then wanted to link to, say, Tad Chef’s SEO 2.0 blog with the word SEO, or Joy’s internet marketing site because she’s been making an effort through SU and comments to build a friendship with me, I could override the global setting at the post level.
4. Link to sources or affiliate links whom you reference a lot. That, for me, would be useful so I could cite Maki, SEOmoz, XMCP, and others more easily.
5. Make a link nofollow. For example, if you link to particular Wikipedia pages a lot then set the nofollow to be automatic.
6) Link multiple keywords to a single URL. Target all a page’s keywords at once! Just put a space, a pipe (eg |) and a space between the multiple keywords. E.g. affiliate | affiliate marketing. More efficiency! More time savings!
7) Link a single keyword to multiple URLs. I’m not quite sure why you’d want to do this, but some people asked for it, so there you go!
Pick the number of times a keyword will link to a particular URL. If you only want the words social media to link to your social media category once, you can do that. Notice that social gets linked next, since I also have that keyword assigned to link to the same page.
Plugin Bug Fixes
1) Apostrophes within keywords can now be used. So if your friend O’harra is always getting links from you, just set up O’harra and don’t worry about it.
2) URLs that are just being shown, e.g. http://seoroi.com/seo-consulting-services/ are no longer having keywords within them linking out. E.g. services won’t link to a page you’ve set.
3) Posts and pages that are set as link-love destinations won’t link to themselves. Yay! Better aesthetics :).
4) Blockquotes and lists can now feature links within them. So go ahead and cite this:
Internal Link Building is awesome!
5) Simple Tags can now work with ILB, with a little ‘child’s play’ hacking on your part, per my awesome developer Aaron.
Bonus Advantage of Internal Link Building
This is something I’ve noticed since installing the plugin: My average pageviews seen per visitor has gone up from 1.4-1.5 to 1.9-2.0. Woohoo! Go extra frequency/repetition and brand recall!
7) Image tags with keywords in them (e.g. in the alt or title) are no longer breaking.
8 ) Jeff and John of SEO Design Solutions got the plugin up to date for WP 2.7 and removed the bug on the new post / post editing admin panels.
9) Chris Balicki of Web Systems helped out earlier as did Matt Longley of Site Source 101.
FAQ:
1. Will this plugin overwrite links in older posts using keywords I set to link to particular pages?
- Where a post already links out using given keywords, the plugin will NOT overwrite it.
2. Can we make this link out in a post only a set number of times?
- Yes, this is possible with the new version of the plugin.
3. Can we make a set of URLs to link to, and have it link at random?
- Yes, this is possible. The plugin has been updated, so if you downloaded it on the first or second day it was live, you might want to get the new one. You just need to separate the URLs with | symbols in the URL field.
4. How is this plugin different from other similar plugins?
- They do not have the post-level override functionality. They also don’t have mass upload through a CSV copy-paste functionality. A third difference is that multiple keywords can link to a given URL, or one keyword can link to multiple URLs (see #6 and #7 for more).
5. Where is the global admin panel?
- It’s under Manage -> Keywords, in older versions of WP (up to 2.5 r 2.6 about?). It’s under Posts -> Keywords in 2.7.
6. Where is the post-level override?
- It’s in a box below the main content area in /wp-admin/post.php (or post-new.php). I.e. When you write/edit individual posts, scroll down and you’ll see it.
7. How do I link multiple keywords to URL, or one keyword to multiple URLs?
- Type the different keywords or URLs out with a pipe symbol ( | ) in between them. It’s found just above the enter key on most qwerty keyboards; you press shift+| to make it appear (without shift you’ll get a backslash: \ ) .
8. How do I install this?
- Download the file. Upload it to the wp-content/plugins/ . Login to Wordpress. Activate it within the plugins admin page.
Like this plugin idea? Be the first to hear about future releases: Get my RSS feed.
Gab, this is a fantastic idea. Nice work. I’m not sure I’ll use it yet, as I like mixing up my anchor text and trying to make it fit in naturally. Still, you get props.

I think a useful way to begin to develop your keyword list is to simply let it evolve as you work. That is to say, have an excel sheet open, as you work. This way your keywords and outgoing URL’s will develop as you work through real world keywords and URL’s. It is tricky to just site there and build your list in one go. So this is a useful way to always have your ‘notebook’ handy when an idea comes to you. In time, you will develop a very targeted keyword/URL list for your WP Blog.
This brings a question to mind. If I had a excel file saved that I continually add to, will the plugin automatically ignore repetitive keywords/URL’s from previous uploads?

Gabriel Goldenberg Reply:
July 2nd, 2009 at 3:53 pm
Hillbilly, that’s an excellent idea! Nice technique :).
I’m not sure how the plugin would treat that, but rather than test and potentially break that, perhaps an easier solution would be to do a control+find (ctrl+F) and eliminate duplicates?
Also, you can put all the keywords that you want to link to a particular URL in a single field, separating them with pipes ( | ). Look at the functionality description for more :).

Gabriel Goldenberg Reply:
June 18th, 2009 at 11:14 pm
Tal, that’s an excellent question. Again, I sadly don’t know. User adoption of this plugin has been so wide and so great that I haven’t been able to keep up with the various uses and plugins people want it to work with.
You’re welcome to hack the code and make it erase the cache when the word list is updated. If the code is good and it still works fast, I’ll happily post your version here for download too, with a link to your site.

Comment by Gabriel Goldenberg — June 30, 2008 @ 11:41 pm
Gab, what a FANTASTIC idea. I do think that if you’re not Wikipedia this might get too spammy on a larger blog, but it should work quite well on a smaller one. It puts a premium on keyword research and analytics, to know what your money terms are as well as your money pages. But this brilliant, original plugin gives you an easy way to match those up!
Let me know when the download is available.

Why not use the WordPress Plugin repository to distribute your plugin? They provide download stats and it’ll make distributing updates easier. You’ll also get broader coverage as the repository is quite visible within the WordPress community.
I’m jumping through similar hoops with a Firefox plugin I recently modified and wanted to distribute. Fun!

Like you said, there are similar plugins, but they lack the post level feature.
What’s best is that you released the plugin for free! Usually you have to pay for the other options.
And it’s worth mentioning that this kind of plugin is also heavily used to link specific keywords to affiliate programs!
Nice job!

The post level option is a good idea. I think I’d use it when you add these 2 options:

- allow multiple keywords for the same URL and random choose one of them each time you add a link in a post

Comment by Kurt — July 7, 2008 @ 12:08 pm
Hi Gab,
I’ve been visiting this page for a week+ and waiting for the plugin to take it for a spin. Sounds like a good idea.
This plugin can be useful for interlinking multilingual blogs. A very practical alternative to manually switch from one page to its counterpart in any other language. There are some multilingual plugin that do that, BUT can create an SEO nightmare.
I was planning on doing it myself last week, but decided to wait for yours. This can be achieved by using the custom fields in Wordpress so that the link gets placed anywhere in the post/category/page, but will be handled manually in the backend.
The way you can achieve that, I think, is by using a tag like: get_post_meta($post_id, $key, $single);, which can be inserted anywhere in the template where the message will appear. Think about having something like this right at the beginning of each post:
1. For the Spanish version click here or
2. In Spanish: Your Title Post Link goes here
Additionally, it will be nice if the following fields can be included:
- title element
- URL
- target
On top of the functions you already incorporated, it will be great to have that flexibility to manually or semi-manually (using a DB for recorded information) link out to subdomains, folders, post or other sites without assigning the same value to the link.
I look forward to testing your plugin.
Regards,
Augusto

Hello
First of all - nice script. I was going to ask my programmer to write something familiar when he will get back from holidays
I have 2 suggestions:
1) do not link every word in post, 1 internal link is ok, 10 or more (in longs posts with many keywords) looks not too good and I personally think it may be penalized
2) When I add a keyword that it a part od url (for example: DOG | http://dog-portal.com) the html code is messed - the plugin will input url into url (<a href=”http://dog-portal.com
Good luck with the new version

Gabriel, it’s a great plugin. I was searching for something like that since first time I used Wordpress for SEO. Thank you for releasing it!
However it seems that your plugin have a little bug. When the keyword is inside the domain name then your plugin is linking the keyword that is inside the domain. :/

Comment by Sebastian — July 9, 2008 @ 10:07 am
Quick question: If old posts already have links assigned to a keyword, and then I use this plugin to assign a different link to that same keyword, what happens to the old already-linked keywords? Will this replace those links? (hopefully not). Or will it only add links to non-hyperlinked words?

Comment by Yossarian — July 9, 2008 @ 3:33 pm
First, great plug-in. Can’t wait to see the future versions, but this is a solid start.
Second, bug alert: When the defined keyword is also contained in the URL that you are linking to, it causes issues (breaks link and displays incorrectly by showing part of the link). As an example, if the defined keyword for the link is ‘chowder’ and the link is http://www.xyz.com/abc/chowder_recipe.html, the plugin does not work properly. I am guessing that it is somehow trying to reinsert the URL when the keyword in the URL is processed.
I am concerned that this might also cause issues with defined keywords that might exist in other URLs too. The plugin should disregard the words/characters in any URLs.

It’s great to see that the suggestions made in the comments have already been taken into account!

Could you aso add the inverse?
“If you would like a URL to be randomly linked to by one of several keywords, seperate each keyword with a bar ‘|’.”
You would have to modify the interface.

1. Allow the “title” attribute of the link to be optionally specified as can be done when adding standard links to posts. This would mean that a tooltip would then appear when the mouse is moved over the link. This would make the generated links consistent with other links that may already be in the post.
2. Allow the “target” attribute of the link to be specified so that links can be opened in a new window if required. This would be especially useful when the plugin is being used to link to external sites.

Hi
I have just been thinking about the plugin and I think that option to set links as NOFOLLOW would be nice. This was we could set some text links to sponsors.
PS: plz remember about */cat-dog/ dog|cat errors

Hey Gab!
great plugin - thanks much for this !
Some issues:
1) the randomize link feature should NOT duplicate links… i.e. if we specify 6 links and place 3 per post, we certainly want 3 unique links, not 3 times the same ones… that would look spamy/unnatural
2)
on a vanilla WP 2.6 we once go thtis problem

Comment by Jean-Yves — July 22, 2008 @ 4:31 am
There is a conflict between Internal Link Building and the Simple Tags plugin. Simple Tags with “auto link” activated, seems to have priority over Int. Lnk Build, so that if the same keyword is defined by ILB and also is included in ST, ILB does not have time to create a link.
Julie, since this is an issue that just affects you personally, perhaps you might consider having a developer help you out with it. It would be too expensive to try and make the plugin compatible with all the other ones out there.

Argg… *arn you! You left the cat of the bag. For me, I called it “Wikipedia-Linking Style”.
Anyway, great work on the plugin with the additional, specific funtionalities for the internal linking.
Kudos.
However, I would like to add one more suggestion for the improvement:
how about adding a functionality/option where you would mainly link the keyword phrase only on ‘related’ blog posts (to help reduce the PR juice leak to unrelated posts)?
For this addition, I think you might want to look at related posts plugins to see how to get the related posts criteria — especially the Similar Post Plugin: http://rmarsh.com/plugins/similar-posts/
Regards,
~Mint Tree~
P.S. I ‘had’ planned to write a similar ‘Wikipedia-linking style’ plugin, but haven’t had the time to do it. So, I must thank you for taking the time to do the plugin =P.

I see that you can limit it one instance per post. Is it possible to limit it to so many times per link, so that I could link to a specific keyword like 10 times for one URL and then 10 more times for another URL? Post-level overrides in this case would be as cumbersome as doing everything manually.

The bottom two headings are trying to convert into links, but partial html is being spit out. Any ideas?
Also, could you include an option to not hotlink inside tags at all? I have a feeling more people than me do not like to see part of a heading be linked to another page. It just looks goofy. That would make this plugin perfect in my opinion.

Looks like a nice plugin, but anchor mixing is really a must. This can be simply implemented by randomly including one or two words around the anchor.
Like this:
for “SEO” keyword the plugin would create a random anchor:
“Various companies produce varying results in SEO job.”
If using keyphrase, it would be great to set a max distance between its words:
keyword1 word1 word2 word3 keyword2
I would also love to see a test option. For example, you can add a rel=”SEOROI” to the links and, once testing is done, remove those rel’s.

I have tried putting the compressed file in the plugins directory, I then tried putting the .php file in the plugins directory, and finally I tried putting it in its own self named directory.
None of the above worked - wordpress didnt state the plugin as being present.
I also tried installing it using the built in plugin uploader in wordpress 2.7, but unfortunately the the ftp root directory has to be the wordpress root directory for that to work, and that is not compatible with my server setup.
Please advise me as to how to make this plugin functional with wordpress 2.7.

Within the wp-content/plugins/ directory, each plugin must have its own subdirectory. (Normally they’re included within the zip.) Just create one called “internal-link-building” and stick the extracted php file into it. It should then appear in your list of plugins.

Great plugin, have been using it for a little while and it seems to do the trick I suppose. Thanks

Just thought I would drop in and say thanks for taking the time to develop this wordpress plug-in / release it for free! I’ve just enabled it on one of the sites, and although I haven’t seen any SEO effects yet, it has had the unexpected affect of increasing average visitor time on site!

Well, this plugin seems to be very useful. There are many similar ones around. For now i will stick with the one im currently using.
I do not change to this one because of 3 things:
1- There is no statistics
2- No option to target links to open in a new window,
3- no ability to cloak selected urls.
WIth these 3 addons this plugin would step in front of the others

The developer I worked with said it’s already imposing a moderate load as things stand. More features would slow it down and give you load time issues.
As to features, not everyone wants those. And not everyone would use those.
Opening links in a new window would be strange if you’re using this for internal link building. New windows aren’t great user experience within a same site!
As to cloaking, I have the same response - why do that for your own site.

Hey guys when my keywords link they are adding the post url in as well. So the url that it is linking to has the current post url followed by the url i want to be there.
e.g mysite.com/my-current-post/desired-url
how do i stop it doing that and just go mysite.com/desire-url ?

Hi, I’m tempted to use this plugin and/or similar ones, but what concerns me is “rolling back”…
Once the KWs are made clickable, is there a way to reverse this, or are changes permanet and the only way is to manually go through every post and page on site to edit hyperlinks?
For example, if I recommend an affiliate product tied into a KW, and if the product is no longer recommended.
Also, many times I used KWs when inner linking, so would the plugin interfere overwrite my previous inner linking with aff links?
Thanks,
Dan

1) You can just remove the keywords and their associated URLs from the admin panel to “roll back” the edits.
2) The plugin does not overwrite existing links.
So go ahead and use it Dan!

Follow up question, can this plugin be configured to only hyperlink..say 50% of the words chosen, because in blog posts that are optimized, the KWs show up repeatedly, therefore this plugin would hyperlink every kw, and it’s look spammy and “trying too harD”…

You can set it to just link the first time, first 2 times etc.

Try changing the caption from something that includes assigned keywords to something that doesn’t.

Comment by Shabu Anower — April 29, 2009 @ 12:10 am
Well.. another feature to request: Title tag! We’d like to show the user what he’ll link on to.
And another one.. it would be great to place a code on that keyword, so that I will place a javascript and an image on mouse-over. Let’s say I want to link “banana”.. I would like to show a small div on mouse-over that displays an image with a banana. This would be great for affiliates

I wrote about your plugin compared to the others in this post:
http://richardcummings.info/wordpress-link-plugins/
After just doing some link building today, I would like to make a feature request if you accept them
Rather than creating a .csv file for import, I just created my list in the panel and then I was going to export it into a .csv file. That way, I figured, I would not make any typos in a .csv. However, when I searched for the export feature, it was not there and or I could not find it.
Would you be able to add an export to .csv component?
If so, that would be great.
Kudos on a wonderful plugin.
–Richard

hey Richard,
I currently don’t have the time or budget to make updates. If you have a developer willing to contribute, that’s cool. I’ll gladly post the update and link to ur site.
My last developer said more features would slow load times significantly, but IDK if that’s true for backend features too…

Comment by Richard Cummings — May 26, 2009 @ 1:10 pm
Gabriel,
Thanks for the response. I’ll just keep my master copy in the csv format then.
Like you, I don’t have a developer to put time into this.
However, if anybody out there wants to contribute, I have one more suggestion…(it’s kind of a big one though
)
Rather than having to upload a new csv, or manually make an entry, to each site each time you have a new keyword that you want to add, it would be great to have a master file that you could point to OR have a routine that copies in a new .csv file daily.
For example, the plugin could say “Enter the web location of your master csv file” and then the plugin could always draw from that master file. Thus, you need only make one update on the master copy and each of your sites would use this master copy.
I know…I know…a pretty big suggestion, but if anybody out there has the time, it’s not a bad idea.
Again, thanks for a great plugin.
Richard

Sounds like a clever device for managing multiple sites, Richard. I might add that this would need to be done in a way that search engines couldn’t see, to avoid footprinting the sites you own together…

Guys - quick comment to share some research we’ve done on this plugin.
I was concerned about performance of this plugin (given it’s invoked on all pages and parses content; matches to long list etc).
I’ve been burnt before by plugins which sap site speed so we wanted to analyse before implementing.
We analysed the code and found it quite performant. Our analyses of the plugin is that it’s well coded and while will slow down the page load a little, will likely be below level of noticeable difference (assuming up to 100 odd link words).
We’ve also modded it a little such that it will only automatically link keywords in the context of a single post page (and not e.g. on the homepage or a category index like the AFL tab).
This will help performance (ie, homepage not hit) and will reduce large numbers of links on a long homepage. This may not be what others want from it, but we’re happy to share this mod if there’s a need.
Thanks again for building this.
Zac

Zac that sounds like some advanced, intelligent work you guys have done. I would love to host the download for your version, and of course I’d be very happy to link to you as thanks! Or if you want to host it on your own site, I’d still be happy to link to it :).

Comment by Zac — May 28, 2009 @ 12:27 am
Further to Zac’s post, if you only want this plugin to insert links when viewing a single post (as opposed to all excerpts in a category archive or homepage etc), simply add the following extra code on line 85 of the current version.
That’s where it says
function filter($content) {
global $id, $post;
.. now add on the next line;
if (! is_single()) return $content;
Hope that helps.

Zac,
That’s great information…thank you very much.
It sounds like you all have delved into the details quite a bit.
Perhaps you could help me with a little problem that I am having.
I usually use about 3-5 keywords in an article. Thus, when I set up Internal Link Building, I set up these 3 keywords to link to one particular page.
My problem is this: If I have those 3 keywords in one article, they will all be linked (even though I set “times” to one). They each get linked one time.
Do you know how I could set up the plugin to link to a destination page only once per post? (3 different keyword links to the same destination in one post is odd and unnatural)
Thanks again for the above information and if you have any suggestions on this problem, I would really appreciate it.
Regards,
Richard

Hi Gabriel,
I’m excited to use your WP plugin. I just activated it, however can’t find the global admin panel. In your posts, I saw you mention it’s under Manage -> Keywords, but I checked EVERYWHERE in my WP admin section & can’t find a manage -> Keywords combination. Could upgrading to WP 2.8 be the issue or is it right in front of my face & I don’t see it? Thanks!

I don’t like this “subscribe to me for plugin” thing - you didn’t earn my readership - and forced me a few more steps for a good plugin.
Maybe I should just republish it on rapidshare to make it easier on people.
here is the link:

(until you’ll take it off. but in the meantime - friend - understand that this was a bad move…)

I understand where you’re coming from … but you can always unsubscribe a second later if you really don’t want to read this. But you should want to read this, for at least 2 good reasons:
1) To learn about updates to the plugin or about new plugins or valuable SEO tools and research I release.
2) To learn new SEO techniques. If my plugin was worth republishing on rapidshare, then perhaps my non-programming SEO material is also worth your attention?
