Internal linking

Every article linked to the pages it should be.

CitedSEO reads every page on your site, so each article it writes links to the pages that matter, in sentences that read naturally. When one of its articles has few links in, or isn’t linked to its topic’s pillar page, links from its related articles land in your queue.

How it works

Three steps, then it runs itself.

  1. It maps your site

    Every published page, what it’s about, and every link between them.

  2. It finds the missing links

    Articles of ours that few pages link to, links up to each topic’s pillar page, and links to pages that have gone.

  3. It adds them in context

    Each link goes into a sentence in one of our articles, with natural anchor text. Approve it, or put links on autopilot.

Orphan pages

No article left without links.

An article few pages link to is hard for Google and readers to find. When one of ours has fewer than three, a link fix lands in your queue with links from our related articles.

  • Every one listed, with where the links will go
  • Links come only from articles about the same thing
  • Turn on autopilot for links and they ship without asking

What’s included

Everything internal linking does for you.

  • Orphan pages

    Our articles few pages link to, linked from our related ones so they get found.

    What is this?
  • Links inside sentences

    Placed in a sentence in the article, not tacked on as a list.

    What is this?
  • Only related pages

    A link is suggested only between pages about the same thing, so a reader would want to follow it.

  • Topic clusters

    Each article linked to its topic’s guide and to its neighbours.

    What is this?
  • Easy to undo

    Any link we add can be taken out again in one click.

  • Sensible limits

    At most three new links from a page at a time, and never a second link to a page it already links to.

Get in touch
Does it change my own posts?

No. Links are only added inside articles CitedSEO wrote. Those articles can link out to any of your pages, but your own posts are never edited.

Will it add too many links?

No. A page takes at most three new links at a time, never links twice to a page it already links to, and links stay out of headings, the answer box, tables and code.

Does every new article get linked too?

Each new article links to its pillar page and your related pages as it’s written. When few pages link to it, a link fix lands in your queue to add links from our related articles.
