In my last post I talked about SEO Smart link wordpress plugin which helps you to automatic link to particular keyword with a link. This will increase your no. of internal linking and will help you to rank better in search engines.
This plugin is also useful for affiliate marketer who use wordpress as their blogging platform. They can link to particular text with their affiliate codes and increase revenue. You can also configure this plugin to open link in new window and add a no follow attribute.
Here is a detailed guide which will help you to set up SEO smart link wordpress plugin.
- Download, install and activate plugin (Plugin link)
- Once activated, navigate to Settings> SEO smart links under your wordpress dashboard
- Follow the screenshots and instructions.
In the first section you can configure which part of your blog will be automatically linked. You can select posts and pages. Select comments when you have a good wordpress hosting.
Target
In the target section, I recommend select only posts section and avoid pages. Since you don’t want to rank for pages like contact me, about , disclaimer.
SEO Custom Keywords
This is the option which you need to pay most attention. Here you will add text and links which you want to be automatically linked.
No follow : Use Nofollow attribute option only if you are linking post with affiliate links.
Open in new Windows : This is based on your personal choice. You can make it to open in same window or open in new window. In my case, I have selected it to open in new window.
This is the syntax I used to automatically link two text from my blog with one of my post :
Gocodes Wordpress plugin, Hide affiliate links, http://www.themepremium.com/hide-your-affiliate-links-in-wordpress-with-gocodes-wp-plugin/
You can separate multiple text with “,” .
I hope this post will help you to enhance your Wordpress SEO capabilities.

Hey Jurang
Have you configured everything as mentioned in the tutorial? Is is not appearing in old post or even in future posts too ?
i post articles with inter linking to keywords in it. and this will also put inter links between posts, so wont inter links get more in the posts ? like 4 to 5 links in the very same posts ?
So with this plugin I still have to enter each individual post url still?
Ms. Freeman depends on what do you want to rank for.. I use it for whole blog.. as in if I want to rank for a particular keyword, I configured it for my blog, or for few posts.
This is a very useful Word Press Plugin. Especially for SEO. Thanks, I will install it today.

Hey Kamal
Can you show me a screenshot of your SEO smart link plugin settings and I can review it.
I haven’t been able to get it to work on my site either. I’m using WP 2.9.2
Does anyone know if this still works with the latest WP version?
It doesn’t word on previous posts. Only new ones that i write.
Is there a way to make it search all of the posts and make keywords from previous posts into links?
Is there any one who can respond to my previous query?
