Audits all internal and outbound links against the entity linking decision tree – people to personal sites, companies to company sites, concepts to definitive articles.
Category: Website QA Audit
Use this when running Layer 2 (Content Architecture Checks) of the Website QA Audit – links that point entities to the wrong destinations scramble the site's entity graph.
Inputs
- A crawl export of all links with anchor text (Screaming Frog) or post-by-post review access
- The entity linking decision tree (see /entity-linking)
- The site's map of concept hubs/definitive articles
- The audit report/spreadsheet for logging results
Steps
- Export every in-content link with its anchor text and destination from a Screaming Frog crawl (or review post by post on smaller sites).
- For each anchor naming a PERSON, confirm it links to that person's own site or primary profile – not to a generic page.
- For each anchor naming a COMPANY, confirm it links to the company's website.
- For each anchor naming a CONCEPT, confirm it links to the one definitive article/hub that owns the concept – never to a competing duplicate page (content vandalism).
- Check anchor quality alongside destination: descriptive 3-6 word anchors, no "click here."
- Log every violation with page, anchor, current destination, and correct destination per the tree in the audit report.
Definition of done (QA checklist)
- 100% of entity-naming anchors route per the decision tree – people → personal sites, companies → company sites, concepts → definitive articles
- Zero generic anchors ("click here") and zero concept links pointing at duplicate/competing pages
- Violation list with corrections logged in the audit report, linked back to /website-qa-audit
Example(s)
- Example needed – run the Meta-Article Prompt after first real run.
