Our analysis

AI-assisted

Linkbuildr is a WordPress plugin designed to assist content creators with outreach efforts. When you publish a blog post, it scans for links and identifies any new websites not already in your contacts database, suggesting names and emails for you to manage.

The plugin facilitates email outreach by sending messages to approved contacts with a single click. It also allows for the import of existing contacts via CSV and supports GDPR compliance by enabling contacts to unsubscribe and manage their data.

Best for: Content creators looking to streamline their outreach process.

What it does well

  • Scans posts for links upon publishing
  • Identifies new contacts not in your database
  • Sends emails to contacts with one click
  • Allows import of existing contacts via CSV
  • Supports GDPR compliance features

Where it falls short

  • Limited information on additional features or customisation options
  • Last updated in January 2020, may not support newer WordPress versions beyond 5.3.23

Verdict

Linkbuildr offers useful features for managing outreach, but its age and limited updates may affect its functionality with newer WordPress versions.

  1. SCANS YOUR POST FOR LINKS
    When you click publish on a new blog post, Linkbuildr scans your post and identifies all of the website’s your article links to.

  2. IDENTIFIES CONTACTS AND INFORMATION
    Linkbuildr then check’s your site’s database of contacts to identify any new websites that are not already stored. For new sites it displays a pop-up window for each and suggests a name and email for your to save, edit, or skip.

  3. PUSH BUTTON EMAIL OUTREACH
    With the simple click of the publish button, Linkbuildr sends an email to each contact it found (and you’ve approved) for hands free content promotion. For more impact you can add custom email templates and set them at the domain level for maximum customization.

  4. IMPORT YOUR EXISTING CONTACTS
    Import a CSV of your existing contacts with the associated information.

  5. SUPPORTS GDPR COMPLIANCE
    Allows a user’s contacts to unsubscribe from future emails, with a custom unsubscribe landing page, and the ability to delete all of a contact’s data.
