External Links – nofollow, noopener & new window

Almost nothing at free version.

This plugin is exactly what I needed to manage external link behavior on my site. The ability to customize nofollow and dofollow rules by domain is a huge win for SEO, especially for trusted citations while preventing link equity leakage.

I really appreciate how intuitive the interface is — you can set default behaviors, override for specific links, and apply rules consistently across the site. Also love that it handles noopener and noreferrer attributes out of the box.

Support has been rock solid and the plugin is clearly well-maintained. If you care about SEO hygiene and link control, this is a must-have. 5 stars!

Messed my whole site up.

It works well for my blog.

Just an idea: I needed to hide the icon in the CTA buttons and I solved this easily by adding code in the CSS of my theme. It would be nice though if there was a simple exception option based on selector, just for the icon.

I wrote 3 emails to the support, but the support doesn’t answer.
