Free Anchor Text Checker vs Link Whisper
Link Whisper suggests internal links inline while you write in the WordPress editor, matched mostly by keyword and phrase, and can bulk-insert links across existing posts. It doesn't compute a PageRank-style authority score per page or model how authority flows across your whole site. RankForge is the structural layer: it crawls the site, scores every page's internal authority, and outputs the specific link to add — source, target, anchor, and placement — on any platform, not just WordPress.
If the job in front of you is anchor text checker, you can run that check here for free in a couple of minutes with no account. Whether you also need Link Whisper depends on what else you do in a week — which is what the rest of this page is about.
What the free anchor text checker checks
- The share of generic, non-descriptive anchor text on your site
- Exact-match anchor repetition that can look over-optimised
- High-impact internal links that need better, more descriptive anchors
Where Link Whisper is genuinely better
These are real advantages. If any of them describe your week, Link Whisper is worth paying for and this free check is not a replacement.
- Suggests and inserts internal links directly inside the WordPress editor as you write
- One-click bulk link insertion across existing posts by keyword or phrase
- Built specifically for WordPress — no external crawl or account needed
