When you have a huge blog, internal linking become tough if you are not using some auto Internal-link plugin like SEO smart link. But it’s a paid plugin and for free solution we have WordPress Insight plugin. This plugin works at WordPress post editor and helps in quickly link your blog post within your blog. Also, if you understand the importance of outbound links for SEO, this plugin is going to be very useful.
What is WordPress insights plugin:
With latest version of WordPress, we got the features to add internal link by search, but I never found it to be very helpful. WordPress insights plugin is one of those plugin, which will make the manual internal linking painless and quick. In this plugin, you can search for term in search box of insights plugin (Complete detail below) and it will search your blog for relevant content. Though default search is not very effective, so I use Google search option in this plugin to find the post. I use following search query
“Keyword” site:shoutmeloud.com

Once you have found the desire post, simply select the word from post editor and click on link to add link. Another major benefit, which this plugin gives is you can quickly add relevant links from Wikipedia, Google blogs and many more.
If you still unaware of benefits of interlinking you should seriously need to read my previous posts on
Interlinking provide you SEO advantages and also it will help you to decrease the bounce rate of your blog.
Download and install Insight plugin from author site and when you write article you will see a box like this and you can quickly interlink your blog post
Here is a quick video which will let you know how you can use WordPress insights plugin
I personally, use SEO smart link for automated linking and this plugin for manual linking. When ever you are linking, make sure your links to pointing to meaningful article. Never add intenal link, just for the sake of it. Also, always add anchor text with variation, while linking to your article.
Do you know more plugins like WP Insights, which will make interlinking fast and quick?
Meanwhile why don’t you share any less known useful wordpress plugin which every one would like to add into their wordpress blog?

I have been using this for a long time now, very useful!
Wow this is a really nice find, I need to check it out and see what happens with all of your links if you un-install this plugin.
I guess it should not create any difference.. Since those links which are interlinked are not called by this plugin after interlinking. Though I’m not very sure..but based on how this plugin is working.. Should not create any such problem.
I have been using this plugin for a long time and it is quite useful for quickly finding the links related to the posts you have already written
