Link building is the cornerstone of every well-thought growth strategy. And while trading these links may seem like smooth sailing, in the beginning, things get more and more complicated over time.<\/p>\n

Even the simplest websites have thousands of links, making it impossible to track them on your own. That\u2019s why you need a plugin to do the heavy lifting. So, you can focus on what you want to do most anyways, working on your site and writing.<\/p>\n

WP Links<\/h2>\n

WP Links<\/u><\/a> is straightforward and to the point, unlike some plugins you\u2019ve undoubtedly encountered in the past. With the help of this plugin, you\u2019ll be able to have control over every link on your website – and it won\u2019t take a lot of effort either. Despite its simplicity, this plugin has every you could need. It even comes with a fantastic link detector that ensures all your links are authentic and verifies whether they function or direct users to harmful websites.<\/p>\n

\"WordPress<\/p>\n

WP Links also allows the user to create an exit confirmation popup. When users click an external link and are about to leave your site, this feature shows a programmable popup message. The WP Links unified dashboard lets you manage several sites from one location, so no matter how many sites you\u2019re in charge of with WP Links, you can remain organized. All of your websites, brands, licenses, and purchases will be in one location.<\/p>\n

And as if that wasn\u2019t enough, WP Links offers rebranding without any coding. Plus, should you ever encounter any issues, or a bump in the road, you can be sure that the customer service you receive is knowledgeable and courteous because most of those who provide it are developers who contributed to the plugin. Now, let\u2019s delve deeper and see what this plugin can do.<\/p>\n

External and Internal Links<\/h2>\n

External and internal links are the two types of links that build the internet. Internal links connect visitors to a different page on the same website whereas external links take users to other websites. And, while WordPress doesn\u2019t really have any features that allow you to control these. WP Links does.<\/p>\n

External Links<\/h2>\n

The first tab in the plugin settings lets you control external links. And when you turn on the “settings for external links” option, a new group of settings appears below.<\/p>\n

\"External<\/p>\n

Once you have all the settings as you want them, all there is to do is click on \u201c Save changes\u201d and let the plugin do its magic,<\/p>\n

You can set a link as a follow or nofollow, to make sure there aren\u2019t any dangerous links on your site. There\u2019s also an option to ad a rel attribute to any link of your choosing.<\/p>\n

Adding “noopener” prevents potentially malicious sites from taking control of your site, and adding “noreferrer” prevents sending refer information to linked sites. You can also add an “external” attribute to mark the link as an external link, add “sponsored” to mark a sponsored link and also add “ugc” for user-generated content.<\/p>\n

If you want to display icons next to outgoing links, you can select one and save settings.<\/p>\n

There are three options for selecting icons:<\/strong><\/p>\n
