R Link Explorer New -
R Link Explorer New launches April 30, 2026. Pricing remains frozen for existing subscribers for the first 12 months. New plans start at $29/month for the Solo tier (10k backlinks/domain, 100 domains tracked) and scale to Enterprise (unlimited links, custom SLA, dedicated account team).
Existing users can toggle “Legacy Mode” for 90 days post-launch to maintain old metrics while transitioning.
The old way: plot(graph, layout=layout.fruchterman.reingold) – a static PDF/PNG.
The new way: htmlwidgets that allow panning, zooming, and clicking.
New Packages Leading the Charge:
A true explorer needs filters. The new visNetwork proxy functions allow Shiny integration: r link explorer new
library(shiny)ui <- fluidPage( visNetworkOutput("network") )
server <- function(input, output) output$network <- renderVisNetwork( visNetwork(nodes, edges) %>% visOptions(selectedBy = "group") # Dynamically filter by node group ) shinyApp(ui, server)
Here is the "new" magic: interactive physics and hover effects. R Link Explorer New launches April 30, 2026
visNetwork(nodes, edges) %>%
visNodes(size = 20, shape = "dot", shadow = TRUE) %>%
visEdges(arrows = "to", smooth = TRUE, color = list(color = "#4A90E2")) %>%
visPhysics(stabilization = TRUE, solver = "forceAtlas2Based") %>%
visOptions(highlightNearest = list(enabled = TRUE, hover = TRUE),
nodesIdSelection = TRUE) %>%
visInteraction(navigationButtons = TRUE, dragNodes = TRUE)
What makes this "new"?
In the top right of the new dashboard, toggle "Contrast Mode."
*If "R Link" was a typo and you meant R-Studio,
Edge-focused:
Graph-focused:
Code sketch (tidygraph + ggraph patterns):
library(tidyverse)
library(tidygraph)
library(ggraph)
edges <- read_csv("edges.csv")
nodes <- read_csv("nodes.csv")
graph <- tbl_graph(nodes = nodes, edges = edges, directed = TRUE)
graph %>% activate(edges) %>%
mutate(weight = if_else(is.na(weight), 1, weight)) %>%
as_tibble()
