Part 01 · Overview

Welcome

What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first

2.8

GPA, above 45 of the 50 other link building tools we grade

Link Whisper is a WordPress plugin for internal linking. It reads your posts and suggests links between related pages as you write, and reports orphan pages that nothing links to. The free version suggests links for you to paste in; Premium adds them in bulk, links keywords automatically across the site and finds broken links.

To get you started, here are 9 things to know about Link Whisper, taken from its own pages and our grades.

  1. 1

    Best for internal links on a WordPress blog

    Link Whisper suggests internal links inside the WordPress editor and reports pages nothing links to, and Premium is $97 a year for one site.

  2. 2

    Paid plans start at $8.08 a month when paid by the year

    As its pricing page puts it: $97 per year for 1 site.

  3. 3

    There is a free plan

    Link Whisper Free on WordPress.org: AI link suggestions in the editor, added by copy and paste, and a report of orphan pages and link counts per post.

  4. 4

    It runs on Web

    Web.

  5. 5

    AI link suggestions

    Suggests links to and from related posts inside the WordPress editor, matched on topic and meaning rather than exact keywords.

  6. 6

    One-click setup and bulk linking

    Premium groups posts into topic clusters and can add many suggested links at once, with anchor text already chosen.

  7. 7

    Auto-linking

    Premium links every mention of a chosen keyword to a chosen URL across the site, optionally only once per post.

  8. 8

    A 2.8 GPA, above 45 of 50

    That is against the other link building tools we grade, on value, the free plan, features, ease of use and platforms.

  9. 9

    Keep it

    The plain part of Link Whisper you could make: internal linking and reports. What surrounds it you could not. The 2 things listed below take a company, not a weekend.

The report card

Best for internal links on a WordPress blog

Link Whisper suggests internal links inside the WordPress editor and reports pages nothing links to, and Premium is $97 a year for one site. It runs only on self-hosted WordPress, the free version makes you paste every link by hand, and the pricing page and WordPress.org listing disagree on the refund window.

ToolGPA report cardLink WhisperGraded Oct 23, 2026
SubjectGradeComment
Value for moneyAStarter is $97 a year for one site, about $8 a month, which is under 60% of this category's cheaper quarter. It brings 2,000 AI credits, though those refresh only once a year.
Free plan and trialBThe free WordPress.org plugin suggests links as you write and reports orphan pages, with no cap on either. You paste each link in by hand and bulk linking waits on Premium, but a small blog could live on it.
FeaturesCAI link suggestions, bulk linking, keyword auto-linking, orphan and broken link reports, and target keywords from Yoast, Rank Math and AIOSEO. It does internal linking fully, but that's a smaller job than link building as a whole.
Ease of useCNo rating on record. Suggestions show up in the editor, but you need a self-hosted WordPress site first, and Premium groups your posts into clusters before it links them.
Platforms and integrationsBRuns inside WordPress, with WooCommerce, Search Console, Yoast SEO, Rank Math and All in One SEO. Nothing for sites that aren't on self-hosted WordPress.
Grade point averageGood, out of 4.02.8

An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.

Who Link Whisper is for

  • Fits if you run a self-hosted WordPress blog with hundreds of posts to link together
  • Works for WooCommerce stores with product pages nothing links to

Who it is not for

  • Skip it if your site isn't on self-hosted WordPress
  • Tight if you stay free, as each link is pasted by hand and bulk linking, auto-linking and broken link checks need Premium
  • Watch out: AI credits refresh once a year, and refunds cover the first licence only, not renewals or credits
  • Watch out: the pricing page gives a 14-day money-back guarantee while the WordPress.org listing says up to 30 days

Good to know

Good for

  • Bloggers with large archives of posts that need linking together
  • Niche site owners building topic clusters
  • WooCommerce stores with product pages nothing links to

Worth knowing

  • It runs only on self-hosted WordPress sites.

Keep it, or make your own?

Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.

Keep it

The plain part of Link Whisper you could make: internal linking and reports. What surrounds it you could not. The 2 things listed below take a company, not a weekend.

It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.8 is higher than 45 of the 50 other link building tools we grade. It costs $97 a year.

What you could make

  • Internal linking and reports: an app builder makes these well.

What you could not

  • It plugs into other products, WordPress, WooCommerce and Google Search Console among them.
  • AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.

What this rests on. Link Whisper’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
