Link Extractor
Extract all links from any page with anchor text, link type, follow status, and internal/external classification.
Last quarter, a client asked us to confirm that 140 guest post links we’d placed over six months were still live, still pointing to the right pages, and still using the anchor text we’d agreed on. Doing that by opening each URL manually would have eaten an entire week. Instead, we ran every page through a link extractor, pulled the full list of outbound links in minutes, and cross-checked it against our placement log. Three links had gone dead. We caught it before the client did.
That’s the real use case behind our online link extractor tool. Paste in any URL, and it pulls every link on that page — internal, external, nofollow, dofollow into a clean, sortable list. No crawling software to install, no waiting on a slow desktop tool.
What This Tool Actually Does
A website link extractor online works by fetching the page’s HTML and scanning it for every anchor tag. Our version goes a step further: it separates internal links from external ones, flags nofollow attributes, and shows the exact anchor text attached to each link. That’s the detail that matters most in guest posting and outreach work, where anchor text distribution can make or break how natural a backlink profile looks to search engines.
You don’t need to know HTML to use it. Paste the URL, run the scan, and read the results in a table you can filter or export.
Where SEO Teams Actually Use This
- Verifying that guest post links are live and pointing where they should, exactly like the audit above
- Auditing a competitor’s blog post to see which sites they’re linking out to for ideas on outreach targets
- Checking a client’s own site for broken internal links after a CMS migration
- Pulling anchor text patterns from a page before pitching a similar guest post, to avoid duplicating exact-match anchors
- Spot-checking a marketplace listing before buying a placement, to confirm the site doesn’t have suspicious outbound link patterns

A Few Honest Limitations
This tool reads the HTML that loads on first request. If a site builds its links dynamically through JavaScript after the page loads, some of those links won’t show up in the scan. For heavily JavaScript-rendered sites, a browser-based crawl tool will catch more than we will we’d rather tell you that than let you assume a scan is complete when it isn’t.
It also won’t tell you whether a link is toxic or spammy on its own. That still takes a human look at the linking site’s overall profile, not just the individual link.
Why Agencies Trust This Tool
We built this because we needed it ourselves. Our technical SEO team runs link audits across guest post placements every week, and this tool grew out of that internal workflow before we made it public. It’s the same logic we use to confirm placements for our own clients, not a generic scraper bolted onto a landing page for keyword rankings.
FAQs
Does this tool extract links from password-protected pages?
No. It can only scan publicly accessible URLs, the same way a search engine crawler would.
Can it tell me if a link is dofollow or nofollow?
Yes. Each extracted link is flagged with its follow status so you can audit anchor and link equity distribution at a glance.
Will it catch links added by JavaScript?
Not reliably. This tool reads the initial HTML response, so links injected after page load through JavaScript may not appear.
Is there a limit on how many pages I can scan?
No. Use it as often as you need, with no account required.
