How to Add Keywords
Learn how to create effective keyword-to-URL mappings and follow best practices for optimal internal linking.
Adding a Single Keyword
- Navigate to Auto Linker → Keywords in your WP Admin
- Click Add New Keyword
- Fill in: Keyword (e.g. “internal linking”), Target URL (e.g. /blog/internal-linking-guide/), and Max per page (1-2 recommended)
- Click Save Keyword
Best Practices
- Be specific: Use longer phrases over single generic words
- Match user intent: Keywords should naturally relate to the target page
- Limit frequency: Set max 1-2 links per page to avoid over-optimization
- Use natural anchor text: Avoid keyword-stuffed anchor text
- Link to pillar pages: Prioritize your most important pages as link targets

| internal linking | /blog/internal-linking-guide/ | 2 |
| WordPress SEO plugin | /features/ | 1 |
