Links, related pages and overlap
Search engines discover pages through links, and they can't rank two pages for the same intent equally well. These tools address both.
Link Audit
Open Writrex → Link Audit. A read-only report of generated pages that don't appear to receive internal links. An orphan page exists but is hard for visitors and search engines to reach; a cluster-only page is reachable only through related-pages sections.
- Filter to problems only, and page through results.
- A Competing pages section lists generated pages that overlap.
- The report is cached and refreshed when posts change.
Related pages
With Related Pages enabled in Settings, each generated page gets a section linking to others for the same service or area, then recent pages. Choose how many to show (3–12).
Shortcode
Place this on a services hub, footer template or sidebar, using each builder's Shortcode widget. It shows a thumbnail when the linked page has a featured image.

[ca_related_pages keyword="Air Conditioning Installation" limit="8"]Internal link suggestions
In Pages Automator, click Suggest Links to see the best internal targets for your keyword and area, each with a match reason and anchor variants. With Automatically include best matching internal links on, Writrex adds them during generation, keeps anchors varied and avoids linking the same URL twice.
Overlap and cannibalisation guard
Before generating, Writrex compares the new keyword and area with existing generated pages.
| Result | When |
|---|---|
| Block | Same keyword and same area; or same keyword with an area that differs only by a qualifier such as north, south, greater or surrounding |
| Warn | Overlapping area names that may be different places; a keyword contained in another for the same area; or a very similar combination |
For a competing page you can set a canonical URL and undo it. The quality gate also includes No competing page and a Doorway similarity guard, and heading history nudges headings to differ from those already used on your site (reset it in Settings).
