WHAT IT FINDS: Link Classification • Every anchor on the page counted and categorized • Internal vs. subdomain vs. external (mutually exclusive — distribution math always closes) • mailto: and tel: protocols • Same-page anchor links (#section) • javascript: links (flagged as anti-pattern) • Malformed / broken URL detection (anything that fails URL parsing) Security Issues • target="_blank" without rel="noopener" — tabnabbing vulnerability • Mixed content (http:// links on an https:// page) • javascript: URL protocols • Broken / malformed URLs • All security issues surfaced in a dedicated Security tab with specific fix hints Affiliate Detection • Boundary-safe hostname matching — avoids false positives like "not-amazon.com" matching "amazon." • Covers regional Amazon TLDs (.com, .co.uk, .ca, .de, .fr, .it, .es, .co.jp, and more) • Major affiliate networks: ShareASale, CJ, Impact, Rakuten, ClickBank, Skimlinks • Commerce retailers: eBay, Walmart, Target, Best Buy • URL pattern detection on regular domains (?tag=, /dp/, etc.) • Undisclosed affiliate detection — flags affiliate links missing rel="nofollow" or rel="sponsored" (FTC disclosure relevance) Tracking Parameter Detection Flags links with any of 25+ known tracking parameters, including: • UTM family (utm_source, utm_medium, utm_campaign, utm_term, utm_content, utm_id) • Social: fbclid, twclid, igshid • Ads: gclid, dclid, msclkid, yclid • Email: mc_cid, mc_eid, _hsenc, mkt_tok • Affiliate: ref, source, tag, aff, affid, partner, promo, campaign • All tracked params shown per link (first 3 in-line) Cloaking Detection • Identifies internal paths using known cloaking segments: /go/, /goto/, /out/, /recommend/, /redirect/, /redir/, /jump/, /aff/, /visit/, /click/ • Exact path-segment match (not substring) — avoids matching /articles/ or /register/ • Separates internal cloaking from external URL shorteners Link Attributes • rel="nofollow" count • rel="sponsored" count • rel="ugc" count • target="_blank" count (safe vs. unsafe) • Download attribute detection (plus automatic detection for .pdf, .zip, .mp4, etc.) Host Analysis • Top 10 external hosts ranked by outbound link count • Domain-level view of where your page sends traffic Duplicate URL Detection • Counts unique URLs appearing 2+ times on the page • Separate from total link count so repeated nav links don't inflate the report All Links View • Filter by internal, external, affiliate, nofollow, tracked • Color-coded badges per link: internal/external, affiliate, cloaked, tracked, nofollow, sponsored, ugc, unsafe _blank, http, download WHY Royal Links Audit? • One click — no setup, no configuration, no login • Zero data collection — analysis runs entirely in your browser, nothing leaves your machine • No account required — install and use immediately • Priority-based status — the header label surfaces the most important finding first (Security > Disclosure > Tracking > Clean) instead of a generic score • Accurate, not opinionated — classifies links rather than scoring them, because link audits are contextual and a single "good/bad" number would misrepresent nuance • Lightweight — Manifest V3, activeTab permission only, no background processes, no performance impact on your browsing • Clean UI — results organized into Overview, Affiliate, Tracking, Security, Hosts, and All Links tabs WHO IT'S FOR: • Affiliate marketers auditing FTC disclosure compliance (flags affiliate links without nofollow/sponsored) • SEOs analyzing outbound link profiles, nofollow distribution, and internal linking • Security auditors scanning for tabnabbing risk, mixed content, and javascript: URLs • Content reviewers checking rel attributes and tracking parameter usage • WordPress and Shopify publishers verifying their link hygiene pre-publish Built by the team behind Royal Plugins — we make lightweight, privacy-respecting SEO and content tools for the WordPress and Chrome ecosystems.
