Broken Link Checker

Single Page is right when you just launched a new landing page, rewrote a big blog post, or want a quick sanity check before publishing. It hits one URL and tests every link on it.

Entire Site (sitemap) is the monthly maintenance scan. It pulls your sitemap.xml, opens up to 25 real pages from your site, and checks every outbound link across all of them — deduped, so you don't see the same broken footer link 25 times. This is how you catch dead links in your header, footer, or old blog posts you forgot about.

1. Internal 404s. These are the highest priority. Every broken internal link is link equity you paid for and threw away. Either point them at the new URL or set up a 301 redirect from the old one.

2. High-impact broken links. The sitemap scan shows how many pages each broken link appears on. A dead link in your footer touches every page — fix that before a broken link on one obscure blog post.

3. External 404s and 5xx. Update or remove them. Linking to a dead external site makes your page look old.
