Linkmap Page Link Explore

What is LinkMap?
LinkMap is a powerful Chrome extension designed to streamline on-page link auditing. It transforms how you visualize link architecture, verify real-time HTTP behavior, uncover hidden redirect chains, and make data-driven decisions. Instead of relying on a traditional, disruptive popup, LinkMap operates as a sleek, non-intrusive right sidebar directly within your active browser tab. You can inspect the page layout, analyze the link structure, and jump directly to problematic anchors without ever losing your visual context.

The LinkMap Promise

Generate a complete, page-level link inventory in seconds.

Instantly isolate problematic URLs, including 4xx client errors and 5xx server errors.

Visualize complete redirect paths (e.g., 301 > 302 > 200) to protect your crawl budget.

Clearly distinguish between internal site architecture and external outbound distribution.

Monitor page health with a live quality scoring system and summary metrics.

Export data seamlessly to CSV or copy directly into spreadsheets via TSV.

Accelerate execution times for technical SEO audits, QA workflows, and content operations.

Core Features & Capabilities

In-Page Sidebar Experience: Opens smoothly from the extension icon, staying persistently on the page for a frictionless workflow during repeated audits.

Intelligent Link Discovery: Automatically extracts all HTTP/HTTPS URLs. Utilizes a smart anchor text fallback sequence (textContent, img alt, aria-label, title) and captures vital SEO link attributes (nofollow, sponsored, ugc).

Live HTTP Status Analysis: Verifies each unique URL using optimal HEAD requests with GET fallbacks. Built-in timeout handling and controlled execution for CORS-restricted domains ensure accurate reporting.

Redirect Chain Visibility: Tracks every redirect hop and renders the complete chain directly in the data table. Includes a dedicated "Redirected" filter for rapid identification of unnecessary routing.

Multi-Layer Analytical Filtering: Segment your scope by All, Internal, External, or Broken links. Cross-reference with HTTP status dropdowns (2xx, 3xx, 4xx, 5xx, ERR) and utilize the live search bar for specific URLs.

Progressive Scan UX: Zero UI blocking. Rows appear instantly while HTTP statuses, chain paths, and health scores update incrementally. A live progress bar eliminates wait-time uncertainty.

Scoring & Health Summary: Get an immediate overview with total link counts, healthy vs. broken metrics, unique domain tracking, and a dynamic 0-100 overall health score ring.

Locate on Page: A dedicated "Show" action scrolls the viewport directly to the physical anchor on the page, applying a temporary visual highlight to accelerate debugging.

Export & Reporting: Generate one-click CSV exports for filtered data or use the "Copy for Sheets" (TSV) feature to paste perfectly formatted rows directly into your reporting spreadsheets.

Security & Limitations

LinkMap analyzes links visible on the current DOM and processes all results locally on your device.

Certain domains enforce strict cross-origin request policies (CORS), which may restrict deep analysis.

Protected browser environments (e.g., chrome:// pages) limit standard extension behavior.

Restricted network cases are clearly surfaced as explicit error states in the results panel, preventing false positives.
