LinkTiller
LinkTiller is a self-hosted WordPress plugin for finding posts and pages without incoming internal links and proposing relevant links between existing content.
What LinkTiller is
LinkTiller is a self-hosted WordPress plugin for finding posts and pages without incoming internal links and proposing relevant links between existing content. Its scan is read-only: it maps incoming links, surfaces unlinked pages, and ranks eligible sources locally before sending a shortlist to an endpoint and model configured by the site administrator. Each suggestion shows the proposed sentence, exact anchor, destination, reason, and safeguards for review. Anchors must be phrases of 2–6 words already in the source, and destinations must be posts or pages on the scanned site. Nothing is inserted without an administrator's explicit approval, and LinkTiller blocks an insertion if either page changes after review. Approved links receive a receipt; Undo can restore unchanged prior content or remove only the tagged link while preserving later edits. The WordPress site sends requests directly to the configured OpenAI-compatible endpoint, whose provider may charge separately. The free core plan is free. Requirements are WordPress 6.0+ and PHP 7.4+, and an endpoint and model must be configured.
Good
- Read-only scans identify unlinked content.
- Administrators review each suggestion before insertion.
- Stale-page checks block outdated insertions.
- Undo preserves later edits when removing a tagged link.
- No usage telemetry is sent by default.
Watch out
- Does not bulk-insert links.
- Does not crawl for broken URLs.
- Requires a configured endpoint and model.
- The endpoint provider may charge separately.
Who it suits
LinkTiller is aimed at WordPress site owners, bloggers, and agencies seeking to reduce manual internal-link work. Its review and approval flow may fit administrators who want to inspect every proposed insertion before it changes content.
Verdict
LinkTiller focuses on reviewed, individually approved internal links rather than bulk changes. Its safeguards and Undo are useful for cautious editing, but it does not handle broken-link crawling or content silos.
