Biggest opportunity: Swap “internal links” for “pillar pages”. “internal links” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “pillar pages” sits at #6 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

of downloads still active
At least 100 of 836 lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median SEO plugin keeps 1.2%, across 1,192 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other SEO plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 2 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.

All reviews on wp.org ↗- ★★★★★ Martin Sauter6mo ago
I have tested this plugin on three websites. According to my experience, it is not fully reliable, and it lacks some important features. On the other hand, the concept is very promising, the backend looks polished, and I would love to see the improved version of that plugin. The feature I miss most is the possibility to filter the graph based on the number of incoming and/or outgoing internal links per node. For example, it would be essential to see orphaned pages only, or pages with more outgoing than incoming links only, or pages with more than x incoming links only. I also miss the possibility to dim or hide all nodes that are not linked to the currently selected one. Filters by post type would also be helpful. Regarding the reliability: I have a huge blog with about 8’000 internal links, but the graph only displays one (1) of them. On the other two websites, the graph looks complete, but I experienced some glitches depending on the settings.

We used the Internal Link Visualizer on a site with 30 posts and 73 pages and it was instantly useful. It gave us a clear overview of which pages and posts are truly central, how everything connects, and where external links play a role. Super helpful for understanding the site structure from a real user perspective and for spotting internal linking opportunities quickly.
