Why Check for Broken Links?
Broken links (also known as dead links or link rot) are hyperlinks on a web page that no longer work. They negatively impact your website's user experience and search engine rankings.
Boost SEO Rankings
Google interprets broken links as a sign of an abandoned or neglected site. Fixing them improves site quality signals and crawl efficiency.
Improve User Experience
Nothing frustrates a user more than a 404 error. Ensuring all links work keeps visitors engaged and lowers your bounce rate.
Recover Lost Traffic
Broken backlinks from other sites mean lost referral traffic. Identifying and redirecting these can reclaim valuable visitors.
Maintenance Made Easy
Manually checking every link is impossible for large sites. Our tool crawls your page instantly to find dead links.
Frequently Asked Questions
