cross-link-ai

Find linking opportunities between two sitemaps using AI

This project is a CLI tool designed to find linking opportunities between websites using AI-powered content analysis.

Features

• Fetch and parse sitemaps
• Extract main content from web pages
• Analyze content using AI to identify keywords and titles
  • Uses gpt-4o-mini model from ai Vercel SDK
• Compare content across different websites to find linking opportunities

Prerequisites

• Node.js (v20.15.0 or later)
• yarn or npm
• OpenAI API key (you can use OpenAI API Playground to get one)

Usage

To start the linking opportunities process, use the following command:

export OPENAI_API_KEY=YOUR_OPENAI_API_KEY && 
npx cross-link-ai start -m [your-sitemap-url] -s [target-sitemap-url] -f [your-sitemap-filter] -g [target-sitemap-filter]

Example

export OPENAI_API_KEY=YOUR_OPENAI_API_KEY && 
npx cross-link-ai start -m https://dxheroes.io/sitemap.xml -s https://developerexperience.io/sitemap.xml --my-filter "/blog/" --sitemap-filter "articles/"

Replace [your-sitemap-url] with the URL of your sitemap and [target-sitemap-url] with the URL of the sitemap you want to compare against.
