Linkify is a powerful WordPress plugin that helps you generate and manage internal links throughout your website, enhancing your SEO performance and improving user navigation.
Creating internal links manually is time-consuming. Linkify automates this process by analyzing your content and generating contextual links, table of contents, breadcrumbs, and related content sections that improve your site structure and keep visitors engaged longer.
USAGE
Once the plugin is uploaded and activated:
- Navigate to Linkify in the WordPress admin menu
- Enable the features you want to use (Breadcrumbs, Table of Contents, Contextual Links, Related Content)
- Customize settings for each feature
- Your content will automatically be enhanced with the selected linking features
Here are the steps to get started with Linkify:

Note: The plugin analyzes your existing content to create relevant internal links. No content is modified directly in your database.
