Viewing and Managing AI Link Opportunities

Once Dofollo completes scanning your website, you’ll see the “Total Opportunity Found” box in the top-right corner of your Dashboard. This number represents the total internal link opportunities identified across all your website pages.
These suggestions are contextually generated based on your site content to help you strengthen internal linking without manual effort.

Step 6: View Opportunities by Page

Go to the Website Overview section to see internal link opportunities for each page.

You’ll see columns for:

  • URL – The page path
  • Incoming Links – Links pointing to this page
  • Outgoing Links – Links going out from this page
  • External Links – Outbound links to other websites
  • Opportunities – Number of internal link suggestions for that page

Next to each page in the Website Overview, you’ll find quick-access tools to manage links more effectively:

  • Three-Dot Menu (⋮):
    • 🚀 Start Link Planning – Open the AI Planning Panel to view and manage suggestions
    • 🔄 Rescan – Refresh the page analysis to check for updated content or structure
    • 🌐 Open Page in New Tab – View the live version of the page in your browser

    Opens a detailed view of all internal and external links found on the selected page.

Step 7: Open the Planning Panel

In this view, you’ll find:

  • Incoming Link Suggestions – Potential internal links pointing to this page from others
