Internal Link Optimizer

How well does this page link to the rest of your site?

Enter a URL to check its internal links: how many, how descriptive the anchor text is, where they sit on the page, and whether any are broken.

Audit a page

Checks a sample of up to 12 internal links for broken destinations, so this can take a little longer than a simple page check.

How this works

One page at a timeThis audits the internal links found on the page you enter, not your whole site's link graph — it can't detect orphan pages that nothing links to at all.

No JavaScript executionThe audit reads the raw server response, like most crawlers do. Links only added by client-side JavaScript after the page loads won't be seen.

Broken-link check is cappedUp to 12 unique internal links are checked, prioritizing in-content links first, to keep the audit reasonably fast.

Contextual vs. navigationLinks inside <nav>, <header>, <footer>, or <aside> are counted separately from body-content links, since they carry different topical signal.

About Internal Link Optimizer

Internal Link Optimizer audits how well a single page links to the rest of its own site. Internal links are one of the few SEO levers a site owner has complete control over - they spread authority between pages, tell search engines (and readers) which pages matter most, and give people an obvious next click. Enter a URL and the tool fetches the live page, finds every same-domain link on it, and checks the things that actually affect how well that linking works: how many contextual links there are relative to the page's length, whether anchor text is descriptive or generic ("click here", "read more"), whether links sit in the body content or only in navigation and footers, whether any are accidentally set to nofollow, and how varied the set of pages being linked to is.

It also runs a capped, best-effort check on a sample of up to 12 of the unique internal links found (prioritizing in-content links first) to flag ones that come back broken - a 404 or server error on an internal link is pure wasted link equity and a bad experience, and it is easy to miss by eye on a long page. Results come back as a scored checklist, the same pass/warning/fail format used across this site's audit tools, along with a full table of every internal link found so you can see exactly what was checked and why.

A couple of honest limits worth knowing: this audits the internal links found *on* the page you enter, not the site's overall link graph, so it can't detect orphan pages that nothing links to at all, and it reads the raw server response the same way most crawlers do, so links only added by client-side JavaScript after the page loads won't be seen. Treat the score as a solid, fast starting checklist for one page at a time, not a full site audit.
