Last month, Search Engine Journal introduced LinkPatrol, a WordPress plugin we’ve developed that empowers site owners to find, review, and clean up outgoing links.
Since then, we’ve been collecting feedback. (Thank you responders!) We got a lot of interesting answers to this question: What’s the one thing you would add to LinkPatrol?


LinkPatrol 1.1 now available: Strip Those Comment Links!
Your wish is our command: In v1.1, released last week, we’ve expanded the ability to nofollow/strip links from posts and pages to now include blog comments.

LinkPatrol Reviews
WPBeginner, a blog devoted to WordPress resources and guides by Syed Balkhi, published a review on August 7: How to Analyze Your Links in WordPress with LinkPatrol. It has some nice screenshots, as well as a guide on how to use all the features.
