What's up SaaS Masters!
My name is George, and today we're going
to check out a WordPress plugin that's called LinkWhisper.
This one is an internal link builder.
Plus, it's gonna help you with your Google ranking.
The way it works is that it finds other posts that have to do with the post you're
reading already, and you'll find links inside of those paragraphs that have to do
with something that you're reading already.
Let's take, for example, Wikipedia, which is really famous for doing this.
If you're reading about World War One, well, you're going to find a lot of people
who are involved countries and dates and all of that.
Well, when you read that, you're going to find links inside of there.
Those are internal links.
So if you're reading about World War One,
they're probably going to mention World War Two.
And you if you see that.
Well, there's gonna be a link that's gonna take you to more information about
World War Two, and that's how Internal Link Builder works.
So people stay inside of your domain.
And apart from that LinkWhisper does
a couple of other things which I will be showing you on this video.
So let's go jump over to my dashboard right now.
Okay, everyone, this is the LinkWhisper
site, and there's a deal that's going on right now.
That link will be in the description.
So if you plant to buy this two head on over there and check out that link, okay.
So let me head on over to really quickly
show you Wikipedia because I mean, they're really famous for this.
I just opened up Wikipedia,
and obviously we are talking about Wikipedia and you'll find information
about it and you'll find a lot of internal links that are highlighted right here.
So anything that has to do with someone that's special.
Well, there's a link there.
Let's just say J Thomas.
So if I go to J Thomas, it'll take me to another Wikipedia that has to do with J.
Thomas.
And inside of there there's other links that are internal reference.
Alright.
So basically, that's the most important part about LinkWhisper.
Now let me go to one of my sites to show
you what the link is for dashboard looks like.
And I already scan my site and you're going to see the link stats.
This is the main dashboard we're gonna see
post crawled link found internal links, orphan post, which don't have any links
that cross reference through each other broken links, which is something really
important that you should be looking out for.
There's a bunch of them that I need to fix and 404 errors.
Okay.
And then we're going to see the most linked to domains.
In this case, I use the site for affiliate affiliate links.
So you'll find a lot of things that have to do with AppSumo.
Alright.
And we'll see the internal versus external links.
Just a really quick pie chart that you're going to look out there.
Okay. Before we jump into this,
I want to really empathize and you start off with settings.
Let's go into settings because your site
might not be in English, you might have a site with another language.
So please start here. First of all,
we're gonna be asked for LinkWhisper for create internal links open in a new tab.
So for internal links, I would say I would keep it off,
but it's up to you if you want to open them in a second tab.
And for created external links, I do want them to open in a second tab.
Right. So it's up to you how you set this up?
We can ignore numbers, the selected language.
These are the languages that are available
as of this video, they will be adding more.
And if your language is not there, well, ask them for them, see if they added.
Okay.
It's really important that you select the language that your site is on because
it has to do with the SEO and how it finds more post.
Plus, it's gonna update the ignored word. Okay.
So right here you're going to see the ignore words are right here in English.
And if I select another language, it's going to update it.
Example, here's a Spanish site that I have.
I select Spanish and it's going to ignore these words that's ask keywords.
Why?
Because obviously they're going to be filler words like a about above.
So you use these words really commonly.
So you don't want LinkWhisper to use these.
Now, if you know that you have more words
to ignore, well, add them here and over here.
We have the post type to create links for.
Do you want to create for post?
I would suggest yes, obviously.
And maybe turn off for pages.
So you don't want to do internal links for internal pages for page.
Right. Just for post.
And if you have different type of tag
right here, you can add the muscles different type of post.
Right. You might have some custom.
All right. Terms type to create links for if you want
to create links for categories, post Tags, NAV menu, and you can keep those off.
And also if you want to do internal links
for also private post, future and pending and draft, these are off.
But let's say that you work a lot with pending post.
Maybe you want to turn this on because
first you have a virtual assistant that makes post, and then you check them out.
But you want to take advantage of this
feature and start working with internal links.
Number of sentence to skip.
This is also really important.
For example, if it's going to do internal
links, maybe you don't want to saturate it too much.
So if there's three paragraphs, well, let's just say there's five paragraphs
there's gonna put one in the beginning, one of the third.
And it's just gonna skip because there's no safety right.
If it finds two of those internal links
that you want to link to, you can set it to zero or up to ten,
because maybe you don't want to saturate it too much.
We can Max outbound links per post.
So let's just say, hey, you know what? It's one.
Don't get crazy or maybe two or three, depending on how you want to set this up.
Right up to 100 Max inbound links per post and add destination post title to links.
This is really important that you set up for to get started.
Right?
Because once you do this, then you go scan your site.
If not, you'll scan your site first, use the settings and then goes scan again.
Right.
You can ignore content, and there's also advanced settings.
All right, let's go back to our dashboard.
Okay.
Like I mentioned before, here's the dashboard.
Here's the total post crawled.
1271.
But we're gonna head on over to Orphan post.
Why?
Because this is where we want to get started.
There's nothing going on.
So there's no internal links.
There's nothing connecting to it.
The only way that Google is going to rank this is if it crawls the sitemap.
Right.
But if not, what happens if we have other sites, other pages?
Well, not pages,
other posts that are ranking and have it cross reference to that link.
Well, it's gonna strengthen that. Okay.
So let's get started here.
Let's add some links for this right here.
Now, remember, we talked about the pages
we don't want to internal links for GDPR Privacy policy.
Just an example. I select this one.
Let's wait for it to scan it's.
Gonna find other posts that have to do with this.
Well, this is actually a pretty bad post to actually get started with.
Let me find something more relevant.
Software licensing for this one's. A good one.
Let's start with that one.
Now, I would really recommend LinkWhisper for blogs.
In this case,
I'm only using this for affiliate post, but since I'm going to use LinkWhisper
here, the best thing I could do is use it as a blog.
For example,
I can make a cross reference internal link for anything that has to do with Lifetime
or yearly have it to go to another post that has to do with Lifetime.
Maybe I can make a post explaining what
what Lifetime is in this kind of niche.
And every time that Lifetime has
mentioned, I can make them go to that post.
So people cross reference inside of the same domain.
I think I get kind of through of this. Right.
Okay. Here it is.
We have settings like this only show link suggestions in the same category.
So let's just say that you have several categories and you don't want to do
internal links for different types of categories if they differ a lot.
Let's just say that you're talking about dogs and that categories about dogs,
but you also have other categories in your blog about cars, right?
You don't want to do internal linking for those two.
So maybe you want to keep it tight inside of the same category.
It's just an example that I gave you.
There only show link suggestions with the same tag as this post.
Again, same situation would go that way.
Filter display post by published date.
So maybe you want to do it from a certain date range for the newer post,
older posts, or just whatever date range that you want to choose.
And on the bottom we get the suggestions.
This is the page. Alright.
And we are looking for other post on the same site to link to this one.
All right. That's the idea of this.
So it found this post right here.
Let's payment plugin for WordPress
and it's saying this is the paragraph that it found and what it suggested.
So this if I enable this and I add the link it's gonna link to here.
Right. So I can check this on.
There's another one available. Let me find this.
This one has several ones.
This one found several paragraphs that you might want to link to.
Right.
So let's open this these as three suggestions.
All right.
So every time it found WordPress plugin, it'll jump over there.
Like I said, this is not a blog site, so this might not be the best thing to do.
For example, if it talks about WordPress, we don't want it to go to this link.
But if this was a blog post and we're
talking about WordPress plugins and all that, we might have a main
blog post that has to do with actual WordPress and we'll jump them to there.
We can select what part of the sentence we want them to jump over there.
And we can also edit the sentence.
So for example, if I edit the sentence,
I can actually update the whole sentence because I want to make it a little bit
more reference to what it has to do with this main site.
But if not, I could change where I want to link.
So for example, I can remove this link, for example, edit I can grab this link,
let's unlink it.
And we might want to link it here. All right.
We'll put that the link.
And if I update this, I save it and I add the link.
It's gonna add it there. Okay.
So I can edit it right from here without having to actually go to the post.
So that's really interesting that we could do that.
And all you have to do is actually check
these off the ones that you want to work with and you can add the link.
It'll do this automatically on those posts.
You don't have to do anything else.
And once you go check them out, you'll see that the link is over there.
So you saw how easy that was to create internal links using LinkWhisper.
If we didn't have this.
It would be super time consuming and you wouldn't even want to do it.
But having this plugin it saves you a lot of time.
Now link reports.
That's what we saw at the beginning.
This is the whole link and we'll see the title inbound links,
the outbound internal links and the outbound external links.
So we see that these posts have outbound external links.
You see how many they have.
We can actually view the links that is going to.
All right, you have that options available there.
We have the domain report.
This is where we're going to see a list
of domains that are being used on this website that are going outbound.
So this is the main domain that's been using.
Like I said before, I'm using this for app seal.
So you'll see the amount of posts that have that link and the amount of links.
So obviously there's a least amount of posts with all these links on there.
There's the click report
on this side.
It hasn't had a lot of time with this
plugin SSL, but I think there should be some link clicks here.
Let's go there. Okay.
So this one is the one that's been having more clicks.
Let's click on it.
You'll see total link clicks clicks over the past 30 days.
Most click links, so load more and view detailed clicks report.
We can view that there. Let's actually check that out.
I haven't seen it for myself.
Okay, so there's a chart here with all the information where it's going to.
Alright, let's go back.
And we also have the error report again, you'll have to scan the site for the first
time, which is gonna scan for broken links.
This is super useful because
like you can see right here, there's a lot of links that are broken.
Imagine this site.
Okay, that has affiliate links and they're broken.
Well, I gotta go fix them because if
someone clicks on it, well, it's not gonna work.
It's gonna take them to a four, four page, which I don't really want to.
Plus, Google is probably not gonna like that.
So it's gonna reduce my ranking because I have a lot of broken links.
So I gotta dedicate some time.
Not right now, but I will dedicate some time to fix those links to either fix them
or remove that blog post that it's not really even relevant anymore.
So that's something I have to do. All right.
So other things that I like right here is the auto Lincoln.
This feature is pretty cool.
This one will create some automation for you.
What it's going to do is, for example, for every keyword that it finds
with whatever keyword you put right here, it's gonna take them to a certain link.
Take for example here I put this keyword.
If AppSumo is mentioned that I wanted
to add the affiliate link and it's already added it to 582 posts.
Now imagine doing that manually.
That's time consuming.
Like I said before, you even wouldn't want
to do it because hail, that's a lot of time.
So let me show you what other use cases could be right here.
Let's just say you're talking about let's just say cows.
All right. So if the word is mentioned cows,
then I want to take them to a post that has to do specifically with cows.
I don't know cow milk or a product
that you're selling for cows, and you'll just put the link there.
Okay. This is really important that you click
on the gear button because it'll give you extra options that are really useful.
For example, at links.
If post already has this link, so I wouldn't add that if it's already added.
Don't add it. So I'll keep it off.
Only link once per post.
So don't go crazy if cows are mentioned 20 times.
No, only link it once.
Select links before inserting.
So I'll do this manually to select them
before set priority for auto link insertion.
This is really important also.
So let's just say I have I don't know,
three automations that are kind of similar.
Let's just say we have AppSumo, we have lifetime or other keywords.
All right, we can set which one we're going to give it a priority.
So if it finds the three, it'll put the first priority that you set
only at links to post publish after the given date.
So important if you only want to post newer post.
Alright, and restrict at length into specific category.
So if you don't want to link to some type of category, you maybe
I don't know that doesn't have to do with anything related to your site.
In this case. Whatever.
Let's just say dogs again, if you don't want to add those auto links
to the dogs category, will you set it there?
If not, keep it off and you save it
and it's going to automatically add it to pass post plus future post.
You don't have to do this every single time.
So if I write a new blog post and AppSumo
was mentioned, it's gonna automatically add it there.
I don't have to do anything. Additionally.
So it helps me with that.
There's also the target keywords.
We can also set target keywords,
which is going to search keywords that are used in your blog post.
Remember when you write a blog post,
you have your title, the description or the content,
and on the right you have your image and you can also add keywords.
Those keywords are right here and we can
work with those keywords also, so we can view these we can edit.
We can add inbound links.
We can see the day publish the active keyword.
Organic traffic again,
there's not a lot of information right now because I just added this plugin recently
so you won't see a lot of information there the SEO press keywords.
In my case.
That's what I'm using if you're using Yost Rag math and all that it'll work
with that also, and it'll find them here and custom keywords.
So
basically, that is LinkWhisper.
It has a lot of things that you can do with it.
But the most important part of all is the internal link building.
What I like about it is the internal link building, which is super easy to use
because it's gonna find other posts that are relevant and you can link to them.
The other thing that I like is finding the broken links.
And the third thing that I like is the auto linking,
which saves me a lot of time because I will be finding word specific words that I
find that should be auto link to another blog post that I have.
Plus is gonna help me get content in here,
so I will be creating content that has to do with what I'm doing right now.
So if I'm talking about lifetime, well,
I want to make a blog post that talks about lifetime, so people understand what
it's for, what it does, how it works and all of that.
So every time the word mentioned lifetime,
what I'm going to take them to there so they can read about it.
So that's just an example of what I'm going to do in the future.
Well, there you go, guys.
If you guys want to grab LinkWhisper, there will be a link in the description.
Thank you all for watching. My name is George.
This is as Master, and I'll see you guys later.
