Broken Link Checker

Scan a page for dead links — checks every link's real HTTP status.

Sends the page URL to our server for this checkNo sign-up required

Checks up to 40 links found on the page — each link is fetched with a HEAD request to confirm it loads.

Stop Dead Links Before They Cost You

Broken links quietly erode both user trust and search rankings, and they're easy to miss once a page has been live for a while. This tool actually requests every link on the page and reports its real status, rather than guessing from the HTML alone.

How to Use This Tool

  1. 1Paste a page URLThe page whose outbound links you want to check.
  2. 2Run the scanEvery link on the page is checked for its real HTTP status.
  3. 3Review the resultsWorking links and broken ones are clearly separated.
  4. 4Fix the broken onesUpdate or remove dead links before they hurt UX and SEO.

Good to Know

  • Links are checked with a real HTTP request each — a link only looks "working" here because it genuinely returned a success status, not because it was just present in the HTML.
  • A large page can have a lot of links — the scan checks up to 40 to keep results fast; for very large pages, focus on checking your most important content sections separately.
  • Broken links hurt both user experience and SEO — search engines can treat a page full of dead links as lower quality, so a periodic check is worth doing on key pages.
  • A link timing out isn't always "broken" — some servers block automated requests. Treat a timeout as worth a manual look rather than an automatic fix.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many links does it check?

Up to 40 links per scan, checked concurrently in small batches to keep results fast without hammering the target sites all at once.

Does it check internal and external links?

Yes — every link found on the page is checked, whether it points to the same site or an external one.

Why might a link show as broken when it works in my browser?

Some sites block automated (non-browser) requests, which can show as a failure here even though the link works for a real visitor — worth a quick manual check before assuming it's truly dead.
