Fix internal linking across your site
Use case: Fix orphaned pages and weak internal linking
Internal linking is one of the highest-leverage SEO interventions on most sites — and almost universally neglected. Pages with zero inbound internal links rarely rank, even when they answer real queries. Webanto's Content Intelligence use case crawls your site via API, uses semantic AI to find orphan pages and weak link clusters, and suggests contextually-relevant internal links you can approve in bulk. The whole process runs without installing a plugin on your WordPress or Shopify site, and reruns weekly to catch new orphans as you publish.
What to expect
Identification of every orphaned page on your site within minutes of the first crawl.
AI-suggested internal links by topical relevance, not keyword matching.
Measurable lift in orphan-page traffic once links are inserted and crawled.
Ongoing maintenance via the weekly crawl, so internal linking does not decay.
How to set this up
- 1
Subscribe to Content Intelligence and connect your WordPress, WooCommerce, or Shopify site via API credentials.
- 2
Run the first crawl — typically 5-15 minutes for a 100-500 page marketing site.
- 3
Review the orphaned pages report, filtered to commercial-intent pages first (product, service, conversion landing pages).
- 4
For each priority orphan, click into the detail view to see AI-suggested source pages, anchor text, and the exact sentence the link would be inserted into.
- 5
Approve the suggestions that fit. Webanto pushes the change back to your CMS automatically.
- 6
Re-crawl after 24 hours to verify the orphans now have inbound links.
- 7
Enable the weekly crawl cron so new orphans are surfaced before they accumulate.
Products that power this use case
Frequently asked questions
Does this require a WordPress plugin?
No. Content Intelligence connects via the WordPress REST API using application passwords. There is nothing to install on your site and no impact on site performance.
How is this different from keyword-based link suggestions?
Keyword-based tools (Link Whisper, Yoast internal linking) match on draft text against keywords. Semantic AI reads the actual content of the source and target pages and suggests links by topical relevance, surfacing opportunities keyword tools miss.
What is the crawl budget?
500 pages per crawl on the standard plan. Most marketing sites are well under this. Reach out if you have a larger site that needs a higher budget.
Does it work on Shopify?
Yes. The Shopify integration covers blog articles and pages via the Admin API. You can crawl, suggest, and approve links across any Shopify content surface.
How do I prioritise which orphan pages to fix first?
Sort orphans by existing impressions from Google Search Console — pages already generating impressions but with low clicks and no inbound links get the fastest lift from link insertion. Commercial-intent pages (product, service, pricing) should come before informational ones because internal links from high-traffic blog posts carry conversion value, not just ranking value.
Can link suggestions be automatically inserted without manual approval?
You can configure auto-approve for low-risk suggestions (high confidence score, well-established source page, clear anchor text match). High-stakes pages — your homepage, core service pages, and anything with live conversion tracking — should stay in manual-approval mode so no link goes live without a review.
