Broken Link Checker

Crawl your whole site for broken links that hurt visitors and search rankings.

Broken links quietly erode trust. A visitor clicks through to a 404, a search crawler hits a dead end, and both leave with a worse impression of your site. The problem grows on its own as external pages you linked to disappear and internal pages get renamed. A broken link checker crawls every page and hands you the full list to fix.

What it checks
  • Internal links pointing to pages that return 404 or errors
  • External links to pages that have moved or gone offline
  • Broken images, scripts and stylesheets
  • Redirect loops and links that resolve through long chains
  • The exact page each broken link sits on, so fixes are fast

Why it matters

Search engines treat a site full of dead links as poorly maintained, and crawlers waste their limited budget hitting them instead of your real content. For visitors, a broken link is a dead end that sends them back to the search results — often to a competitor. Catching links as they break keeps both happy.

How BrandSentryPro does it

Add your site as a monitor and BrandSentryPro crawls it on a schedule, listing every broken link with the page it appears on and the status code it returned. When something breaks, you get an alert instead of finding out from an annoyed customer.

Frequently asked questions

What counts as a broken link?
Any link that does not resolve to a working page — typically one returning a 404 (not found), 410 (gone) or a server error. Broken images, scripts and stylesheets count too, since they fail to load.
Do broken links hurt SEO?
Yes. They waste crawl budget, signal poor maintenance, and create dead ends that increase bounce rate. Fixing them helps both rankings and user experience.
How do I find broken links across my whole site?
A crawler follows every link from your pages and records which ones fail. BrandSentryPro does this automatically on a schedule, so you get an up-to-date list without manually checking pages.
