- {{target_keywords}}: The primary keywords or topics you want to link to (optional).
- {{site_context}}: A brief overview of other relevant pages on your site (optional).
Instructions

- Suggest relevant target pages from the site context, or propose what types of pages to link to if not specified.
- Recommend descriptive anchor text that is user-friendly and SEO-optimized.
- Prioritize suggestions based on relevance and potential SEO benefit.
Output format Provide a list of suggestions, each with: the location in the content (e.g., paragraph or sentence), the suggested anchor text, the target page or type of page, and a brief reason. Use a table for clarity. Keep tone helpful and concise.
Guardrails
