In Linkbot, each internal link connects a source page (where the link appears) to a target URL (where the link points). With this feature, you can now update the target URL if you’d like to point it elsewhere.
How to Use the Edit Target URL Tool
Go to your Internal Link Report.
Click the pencil icon next to any Target URL.
A popup will appear showing:
Other URLs in your property that match the same keyword.
A search bar to filter results by title or URL.
The option to paste a new URL that isn’t already in your system.
Select a suggested URL or paste a new one.
Click Save to confirm the new target.
Smart Suggestions
If other pages already match the keyword, Linkbot will display them first.
If no match is found, we search using OpenSearch to suggest relevant URLs from your site.
You’ll see up to 5 suggested alternatives to keep things fast and useful.
Custom URLs
If you paste in a new URL that isn’t already known to Linkbot:
We’ll automatically add it to your property.
Linkbot updates the link record and regenerates link output accordingly.
Notes & Limitations
This feature does not edit the source page or keyword—only the destination.
Currently available on the report page and URL inspection panel.
If no alternative URLs appear, it’s likely no matching content was found for that keyword yet.
