Local Content Engine Creating Internal Links For Any Site

Keith Best introduces a new feature in the Local Content Engine, called the Internal Link Builder, which creates internal links for any WordPress site. The tool allows premium members to connect up to 25 sites for free. Keith demonstrates connecting a demo site, “gardens,” and mapping its pages and posts. He explains the process of creating internal links, including adding and removing links, and emphasises the importance of valid anchor text. The tool is compatible with Gutenberg and Elementor but not the magic page plugin. Keith concludes by encouraging viewers to subscribe and leave comments for future video suggestions.
