Common questions
What is a broken link?
A link pointing to a page that no longer loads — usually a 404 not-found error.
Is the broken link checker free?
Yes. Check any public page with no account and nothing to install.
How do broken links hurt seo?
They waste crawl budget, leak link signals to dead ends, and frustrate the visitors search engines track.
What causes 404 errors?
Deleted pages, renamed URLs, typos in the link, or sites that moved without redirects.
Should I redirect or remove broken links?
Redirect when a close replacement exists; remove the link when nothing equivalent remains.
