What it is
Link Manager is a WordPress plugin for publishers who need to monitor and organize links. Its dashboard shows per-post internal links, inbound links, optimization status, click counts, and automatic links. In the editor, it suggests posts to connect using title overlap, shared categories, tags, and post type. The Pro broken-link checker scans URLs in published content and records HTTP responses such as 404 errors, redirects, and server failures. Click tracking stores the source post, destination URL, anchor text, and click date and time. Automatic-link rules can target post types, categories, and tags, with limits for each rule. Tables can be exported as CSV, and configuration can be exported as XML. A free version with part of the functionality is available on WordPress.org; paid plans start at $59 a year. It runs on self-hosted WordPress, requiring WordPress 5.9 or newer and PHP 7.4 or newer.
