One-Click Link Audit, Right in Your Browser.
Royal Links Audit surfaces affiliate links, tracking parameters, unsafe target="_blank", undisclosed sponsored links, and cloaking in seconds. Runs entirely locally. No account. No data collection.
The Chrome extension audits any page; the WordPress plugin manages links on your own site. Different tools, same family — both free forever.
Every Link on the Page, Categorized and Checked.
One click. Six tabs. Every anchor on the page classified by type, tagged by attribute, and surfaced by issue priority — security first, disclosure second, tracking third.
Link Classification
Internal vs. subdomain vs. external, mutually exclusive so distribution math closes. Plus mailto, tel, anchor, javascript, and malformed-URL detection.
Security Issues
Unsafe target="_blank" without rel="noopener" (tabnabbing), mixed HTTP content on HTTPS pages, javascript: protocols, broken URLs — each with a specific fix hint.
Affiliate Detection
Boundary-safe matching across regional Amazon TLDs, ShareASale, CJ, Impact, Rakuten, ClickBank, Skimlinks, and major retailers. Plus pattern detection for ?tag=, /dp/, and similar on any domain.
Tracking Parameters
Flags 25+ known trackers: utm_*, fbclid, gclid, msclkid, yclid, mc_cid, ref, aff, partner, and more. Per-link list of every tracking param found.
Cloaking Detection
Identifies /go/, /out/, /recommend/, /redirect/, /jump/ and similar internal paths. Exact path-segment match — no false positives on /articles/ or /register/.
Host Analysis
Top 10 external hostnames ranked by outbound link count. See at a glance where your page sends traffic. Plus rel attribute counts: nofollow, sponsored, ugc, download.

The extension runs in a popup next to your toolbar. Click the icon, get results — no page reload, no permissions dialog, no new tab.
Priority-Based Status
The header label surfaces the most important finding first: Security > Disclosure > Tracking > Clean. The ring always shows total link count.
Affiliate + Cloaking Tab
Every detected affiliate link shown with its host, disclosure state (nofollow/sponsored), and cloaking path if internal. FTC-disclosure-aware.
Tracking Parameters
Per-link breakdown of all UTM, fbclid, gclid, and 20+ other tracking params found. First three params shown inline.
Security Audit
Unsafe _blank without noopener, mixed HTTP content, malformed URLs, and javascript: protocols — each with a specific fix hint.
Top External Hosts
Top 10 outbound hostnames on the page, ranked by link count. See where your page sends traffic at a glance.

More Detection. Fewer Permissions. No Account.
Most link-audit extensions either focus narrowly on broken links, require an account, or ship with broad host permissions. Royal Links Audit does everything an audit should — with activeTab only.

Common Questions.
?tag=, /dp/, and similar.javascript: protocols. It does NOT fetch URLs to check HTTP status codes — that would require the broad <all_urls> host permission we deliberately don't request. For 404 checking, use a dedicated broken-link crawler.Audit Every Link. In One Click.
