Paste a website or page link to see the words shown on links from the selected pages to other pages on the same site. See how often each wording is used and how many different pages it leads to. This looks at links within the selected site, not links from other websites.

Use Ahrefs’ Internal Anchors report in Toolmu with my existing connection. If the connection is missing, follow https://toolmu.com/SKILL.md. Ask me to paste a website or page link if I have not provided one. For a whole website, include related sub-sites by default; if I ask for one page, check that page only; if I ask to leave out related sites, do so. Show up to 20 link phrases by default, and no more than 100. Put the most-used wording first unless I ask otherwise. For each phrase, show how many links use it and how many different pages it leads to. Explain that these are links from one page on the selected site to another page on that site, not links from other websites. Leave unavailable details missing, and describe the report as Ahrefs’ saved records, not a live check or complete map of every site link. Do not recommend or make website changes. Stay within my existing spending permission and do not start extra paid checks automatically.

Task:
Check [https://example.com]. Show up to [20] different phrases used on links within the website. For each, count how many links use it and how many different pages it points to. Put the most-used phrase first.

Review Links Within a Website

You receive

Get a report grouped by distinct anchor text, with outbound link counts, unique destination-page counts and the first date Ahrefs found a link using that anchor on the target. Your Agent can compare repeated wording with the breadth of destinations it links to.

Start with your task

Check [https://example.com]. Show up to [20] different phrases used on links within the website. For each, count how many links use it and how many different pages it points to. Put the most-used phrase first.

What to know

The report covers Ahrefs-recorded links within your selected scope and filters, returning at most 100 anchor groups. It is not a complete internal-link graph or a check of whether the links work now.

Input schema

Input schema
Field / Path	Type	Requirement	Meaning
queryParams`queryParams`	`object`	Required	Required fields `target`
Source scope`queryParams.mode`	`string`	Optional	Optional exact, prefix, domain or subdomains; default subdomains. exact selects this URL, prefix selects URLs beginning with the target, domain excludes subdomains, and subdomains includes them. This controls the sources of outgoing links. Default `subdomains` Options `exact, prefix, domain, subdomains`
Anchor-group limit`queryParams.limit`	`integer`	Optional	Optional integer from 1 to 100; default 100. Limits the number of distinct-anchor rows returned, not the number of link occurrences counted within each row. Default `100` Minimum `1` Maximum `100`
Anchor-group filter`queryParams.where`	`string`	Optional	Optional JSON-encoded filter expression supplied as a string. Supported fields are anchor, links_from_target, linked_pages and first_seen. Leave it out when no filtering is needed. Minimum length `1`
Source domain or URL`queryParams.target`	`string`	Required	Required non-empty string, such as example.com or https://example.com/page. The report groups internal links leaving the source pages selected by this target and mode. Minimum length `1`
Group sort order`queryParams.order_by`	`string`	Optional	Optional comma-separated field names, each optionally followed by :desc. Supported fields are anchor, links_from_target, linked_pages and first_seen. For example: links_from_target:desc,linked_pages:desc. Minimum length `1`
Source protocol`queryParams.protocol`	`string`	Optional	Optional both, http or https; default both. Selects the protocol of the target source URLs, rather than checking the protocol or status of each destination. Default `both` Options `both, http, https`

Additional notes

This report helps distinguish frequently repeated anchor wording from wording that links to many different pages. Each group combines occurrences from the selected source scope, so it does not identify every source-to-destination link pair. A limited or filtered report is a subset, not a complete distribution of the site's anchors.

The counts and first-discovery dates describe Ahrefs' records. Use separate checks before treating a destination as working or broken, or deciding which links to edit.

Inputs, results and details to know before running it.

Link counts measure outgoing link occurrences using an anchor. Linked-page counts measure the different destination pages those links reach. Several links can point to the same page, and different anchors can also point to that page. Adding each anchor's page count therefore does not give the site's unique destination total.
