Find internal link opportunities in your crawl

Find pages that already mention your anchor phrase. See the surrounding text, then decide whether a link would help the reader.

Your CSV stays in this browser tab. This tool does not upload it, crawl your site, or save your content. No account needed.

Required columns: URL, Title, Content. Up to 2 MB and 10,000 rows.

Source pages to review

    CSV format and how to use the results

    Content must contain plain text, not HTML. Optional Outlinks column: full or relative destination URLs separated by spaces, newlines, pipes or semicolons. Quote CSV cells that contain commas or newlines.

    Paidwick is a made-up company. The example is synthetic.

    1. Export URL, Title and plain text Content from your crawl. Add a complete Outlinks column if available.
    2. Enter the page you want to link to and the words to find.
    3. Open each source page. Read the paragraph, check existing links, and add a link only where it helps the reader.
    Method and limits

    Matching finds the first literal occurrence of the phrase on each source page, ignoring letter case. It does not infer related topics or rewrite sentences. A match can be part of a longer word. Each result includes up to 90 characters before and after the phrase.

    Sources must use the same scheme, hostname and port as the target. Fragments are removed. Query strings and trailing slashes remain distinct. Duplicate source URLs and the target page are excluded. With Outlinks, sources that list the target are excluded. Without Outlinks, existing links cannot be checked. Empty or incomplete Outlinks cells can miss existing links.

    Results depend on the text and links in your export. Navigation text may match too. This tool does not check live pages, indexability, link placement or relevance, and it does not predict rankings.

    Questions about internal links

    Which anchor text should I use?

    Use words that describe the destination and fit the sentence. Google recommends descriptive, concise anchor text in its link best practices. Review each suggestion by hand.

    Will adding these links improve rankings?

    This tool makes no ranking estimate. Google explains how crawlable links help it find pages in its official linking guidance. A phrase match alone does not establish that a link belongs there.
