Looking for Beta Testers for GhostRefs

Marketing & promotion
1

Hey, hey!

For the past few months, I’ve been working on GhostRefs, a web app that helps Ghost bloggers optimize their on-site SEO. GhostRefs does the following for you:

  • suggests relevant internal linking opportunities between your posts using AI
  • scans and reports broken links across your blog
  • provides detailed link health tracking over time
  • audits your on-site SEO efforts (e.g., metadata) and offers suggestions

I’m looking for beta testers who can help shape the product before launch. If you’re running a Ghost blog and want to improve your on-site SEO, I’d love your feedback.

Interested? Sign up for the beta waitlist at GhostRefs.

Feel free to ask any questions below!

I’m also working on a companion Chrome extension that fits nicely into the Ghost editor. It’s for those tedious tasks, such as filling out the meta-title, meta-description, and the excerpt of a post.

Love the creative play of words!

After checking the website, I was wondering if the tool will have a feature similar to that of Yoast SEO’s plugin on WordPress, where it rates your content with red, yellow, or green traffic signal lights and suggests areas where one needs to improve in order to get to the green light.

I know that given the changes in the search algorithm with Google, things might be different today, but still, the basics remain the same, I believe, at least for on-page SEO.

Thanks, @interactivity-studio. The idea of GhostRefs is inspired by a number of tools I have been using for several years but don’t have a Ghost equivalent. The focus is on on-site SEO for now.

red, yellow, or green traffic signal lights

Exactly. Take links as an example. GhostRefs takes a look at the number of internal and external links a post has. Both are indicators of the SEO health of a post. It will highlight areas where you can improve SEO with very little effort.

GhostRefs doesn’t do anything magical, but it is tedious to do some tasks manually (checking a post for 404s for example).

Thanks for the reply! Do you happen to have a screenshot or a sneak peek at the tool? Would love to give any feedback on UI if interested.
