Hello,
Thank you for contacting the support, and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.
The Link Counter works as expected when we test on our end.
We might need to take a closer look at the settings. Please edit the first post on this ticket and include your WP logins in the designated Sensitive Data section.
It is completely secure and only our support staff has access to that section. If you want, you can use the below plugin to generate a temporary login URL to your website and share that with us instead:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/temporary-login-without-password/
You can use the above plugin in conjunction with the WP Security Audit Log to monitor what changes our staff might make on your website (if any):
https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-security-audit-log/
We really look forward to helping you.
Hello,
I have updated the sensitive data as requested. Can you please check further?
Thank you.
Hello,
Thank you for following up.
The internal links are posts that have been set as pillar content. Unfortunately, we only count the incoming links. We do not keep a log of where those are coming from. You will have to manually check for internal links pointing to your current post to see which ones are linking to it.
You can also use 3rd party tools like ahrefs.com to check that.
I hope that helps. Thank you, and please don’t hesitate to contact us if you need further assistance.
Hi Reneille,
Thanks for the reply but unfortunately it doesn’t answer my question. I’m not asking where the links are coming from. The Rank Math link counter in WordPress is not accurate and I need it fixed. A brand new post that I just published a few days ago does not have 134 incoming links. I don’t even have 134 posts on the blog. But the Rank Math link counter says that new post has 134 incoming links. Please advise how this will be fixed to show accurate numbers.
Hello,
We apologize for the issue you are facing.
Do you mind if I ask if are you using page builders to create your content?
Also, it seems you forgot to add your website admin’s login URL. Can you please share it with us so we can further investigate your issue?
We are looking forward to helping you.
I use Elementor to build my pages and post template. I use WordPress Classic Editor to write and publish my posts. Here is the admin link:

Hello,
Would you please share a screencast to replicate the issue? You can sue https://www.loom.com to create as screencast.
I also noted that almost all of your plugins are out of data. please make sure to update your plugins then check if the issue still persists.
Looking forward to helping you.
