When I was releasing my plugin PLR-Unique last year, my original intention was to name it as a SEO plugin. Because apart from uniquefying posts, I also use the plugin to create a strong internal linking structure with every post in the blog having a contextual backlink to my home page with its target keyword as an anchor text.
But I am not writing this blog post to tell you about the history of PLR-Unique plugin. I am writing to let you know that I am impressed by a new plugin called WP Secret SEO developed by my friend and fellow WordPress developer Edwin Boiten
This plugin takes internal backlinking to a whole new level by doing the following automatically:
- First, the plugin monitors all the visitors who came from search engine and extracts the search phrase or keyword they used to find your site (or a particular post in your blog)
- Then, it uses those key phrase/keyword to create an internal backlink from every other post in the blog to that post
As a result, the ranking for that particular post improves for that particular keyword.
Very smart and impressive! Don’t you think?
I have seen the power of internal linking and have seen how some of my wordpress sites improved their Google ranking and traffic just by making slight improvement to internal linking. That’s why I highly recommend WP Secret SEO, as it takes internal linking to a whole new level
I hope to carry out some controlled tests and create some blog posts soon documenting the difference internal linking makes. Because I know from experience this stuff works.
