Broken Link Checker That Covers Every Page of Your Site

A broken link checker follows every link on your pages and records what the destination returns. A healthy link answers with a normal page. A broken one answers with a not found message, a server error, or nothing at all before the request times out.

Links break quietly. A partner renames a page, a product is retired, a blog post is moved, and the link that pointed there keeps sitting in your copy. Visitors click it, hit a dead end, and often leave. Checking by hand works for ten pages and fails for a few hundred.

You give TypoMonitor your sitemap or a start URL. It reads the pages, collects each link, and tests the destination. Internal links and external links are both covered, so a dead reference to another website is found as easily as a missing page on your own.

• Client errors such as 404 and 410
• Server errors in the 5xx range
• Requests that time out
• Long redirect chains that slow pages down
• Broken images, reported next to broken links

Marketing teams that publish often, agencies that look after many client sites, and small businesses with an older blog all collect dead links over time. The larger the site and the older the content, the more links point at things that moved.

If a visitor, a customer, or a search engine can land on a page of yours, a broken link on it is a small cost that repeats every day until someone fixes it. Scheduled scans catch the problem on the day it appears instead of months later.

Every issue is listed by page, with the link text, the destination, and the status it returned. You can mark an item as fixed or ignored, so the list stays short and honest. When a new broken link appears, an email alert tells you, and a weekly digest summarizes the state of the site.

The same scan also checks spelling, so one report covers the two kinds of errors visitors notice first. Plans start at 49 USD per month, with annual billing at half price. There is no free plan, but the demo scan of one page is free and needs no card.
