WPLink – AI Internal Linking is the companion WordPress plugin for the WPLink desktop app. It exposes REST API endpoints that let WPLink discover your site, extract content from Bricks Builder pages (not just standard posts), and safely insert internal links – including into pages that store content in page-builder metadata rather than <code>post_content</code>.
Unlike keyword-based linkers, WPLink uses semantic AI analysis to understand content meaning and context. Most websites miss 60%+ of their internal linking potential; WPLink finds them automatically and this plugin is what lets the AI reach content stored inside Bricks Builder.
Why WordPress Users Choose WPLink:
<ul>
<li>Native Bricks Builder support – Reads and writes <code>_bricks_page_content_2</code> so Bricks pages aren’t invisible</li>
<li>Yoast SEO & RankMath compatible – Works alongside your existing SEO plugins</li>
<li>Custom post type support – Analyzes and links all your content types</li>
<li>2-minute setup – Connect your site via Application Passwords, no coding required</li>
<li>AI-powered analysis – Semantic topic clustering and context-aware link scoring (done in the WPLink desktop app)</li>
<li>Automatic updates – Link changes are applied directly to your WordPress posts and pages via secure REST API</li>
</ul>
This lightweight plugin provides REST API endpoints that allow WPLink to discover your site, read content from standard posts and Bricks-built pages, and apply internal links safely using builder-native write paths.
Features:
<ul>
