A broken link checker crawls your website and identifies links that return error status codes (404, 500, etc.). Fixing broken links improves user experience and SEO.

Why Fix Broken Links?

  • Broken links create a poor user experience
  • They waste crawl budget that could be used on valid pages
  • They can damage your site's credibility
  • Fixing them helps maintain link equity flow
  • Regular checks prevent link rot over time
