Article Link and Anchor Text Checker

Runs in your browser. Your article is not uploaded, and no link is opened.

Your website's domain

Links to this domain, its www. version, its subdomains and relative links such as /blog/page count as internal.

The article's HTML

Copy it from the editor's HTML view: in WordPress, the block menu (⋮) › Edit as HTML, or Options › Code editor; in Blogger, HTML view; in Shopify, the Show HTML button. Pasting straight from the visual editor also works: the tool keeps the copied links. Markdown links work too.

Open an HTML file

What it checks

Links Google cannot follow, missing or generic anchor text, long and repeated anchors, affiliate-looking links without rel="sponsored", http, staging and redirect-wrapped links. It reads the HTML only: it does not open the links, so it cannot tell you whether a page is down.

Paste your article to check its links

You get every link with its anchor text, internal or external, rel values and new-tab links, plus the fixes to make before you publish. Or press Try an example.
