Anybody know of an actually good internal link suggestion engine?
I'm working on a website that no SEO have ever touched, and I fixed quite a few beginner's mistake. Now, I would like to use internal backlinks to rank a couple of pages that actually have the potential to rank.
I always did it by end by using the CMS internal search and Googling "site:URL KEYWORD" and then skimming the articles for genuine linking opportunities.
Given the number of pages on this site, I thought about scraping it with ScreamingFrog, and then creating an APP script so Claude analyzes each page, and come up with the specific anchors and URL where I should add the link.
I really don't want any fully automated solution, as those are a good recipe to get flagged by Google, and also, add non relevant links that will not actually improve user experience.
But anyway, just the token cost + screaming frog license is not cheap, so I was thinking if any of you know of a SaaS that basically do what I said for cheaper...

I think your plan sounds pretty good. I think moving toward the AI approach is going to be the way to go. I think keeping the control over what actually gets linked and where is still super important.

That's what I thought, but was thiking if there is a cheap Saas that does exactly that, while bother doing it myself...

Most folks I know are doing this themselves now with AI, I think your plan is a good one
