Article Link and Anchor Text Checker: check every link before you publish

A few words that tell the reader what the linked page is about, such as "root canal aftercare guide" rather than "click here" or "yahan click karein". Google says good anchor text is descriptive, reasonably concise and relevant to the page it is on and the page it links to. Read the anchor on its own: it should still make sense.

Google asks sites in affiliate programmes to mark affiliate links with rel="sponsored", whether the links are added by hand or by a plugin. nofollow is still acceptable for paid links, but sponsored is preferred, and you can use both together: rel="sponsored nofollow".

Usually not. Google describes nofollow as a way to say you would rather it not associate your site with, or crawl, the linked page, and for links within your own site it points to a robots.txt rule instead. To keep a page out of search results, use noindex on that page.

Not reliably. Google says it can generally only crawl a link that is an <a> element with an href attribute, and cannot reliably extract URLs from elements without an href or from script events. A button that opens a booking pop-up should also have a real page address behind it.

The same exact keyword linked again and again reads badly, and Google asks you to write naturally and not cram keywords into anchor text; keyword stuffing is against its spam policies. This tool flags an anchor used 3 or more times, which is our measure, and anchors that point to different pages.
