Here is my list of programs I have found to be very useful in my own IM work.
I have or still do use all of my recommended programs, the comments are from personal experience.
Some are completely free, like Namelix, some have a paid version and some have very reasonable paid versions which I think you will get great value from.
Some of the links are affiliate links and I may get a commission if you decide to buy, this helps keep my site going, thanks 🙂

Link Whisper
Link Whisper can give your site a huge boost! Internal Links are really powerful in Google’s Algorithm.
But actually checking every page of a large site is very time-consuming and has to be done every time you add a new page to be 100% effective.
Link Whisper runs along quietly in the background, constantly checking for problems, errors, and new link possibilities.
It will produce reports of Orphaned pages with no links, link errors – maybe you changed the structure and not the links. Also checks the best anchor text optimization.
LW can suggest links for all eventualities, at the most simple level all you need to do is enable a suggestion with a checkmark and LW goes to work.
Their users report huge increases in rank and visitors, just by implementing the program at the base level.
