Free Link Checker: Improve SEO by Fixing Dead Links

Free Link Checker — Fast, Accurate Broken Link Finder

What it does

  • Scans websites, sitemaps, and lists of URLs to find broken links (4xx/5xx), redirects, and slow responses.
  • Verifies internal and external links separately so you can prioritize fixes that affect user experience and SEO.

Key features

  • Fast crawl: Parallel requests and smart throttling to scan large sites quickly without overloading servers.
  • Accurate detection: Follows redirects, checks HTTP status codes, validates SSL/TLS, and reports timeouts.
  • Filterable results: Show only errors, warnings (e.g., slow responses, redirects), or specific URL patterns.
  • Exportable reports: CSV/JSON export of link lists with status, response time, and source page.
  • Sitemap & CSV support: Upload a sitemap or CSV of URLs to target specific pages.
  • Integration: API or webhook support for automated monitoring and integration with CI/CD or issue trackers.

When to use

  • Regular SEO audits to find and fix broken links that hurt rankings.
  • Post-migration checks after site redesigns or domain changes.
  • Ongoing monitoring for external link rot and content maintenance.

How it helps

  • Improves user experience by reducing 404s and long redirects.
  • Protects SEO by ensuring crawlable, valid links and fixing redirect chains.
  • Saves time with automated scanning and focused reports for developers and content teams.

Typical output

  • URL | Status code | Response time | Source page | Issue type (Broken, Redirect, Timeout)
  • Summary counts: total checked, broken, redirected, slow

Quick setup (example)

  1. Enter your site URL or upload a sitemap/CSV.
  2. Choose crawl depth and concurrency (default: medium).
  3. Start scan and wait — most small sites finish in minutes.
  4. Review exported report and assign fixes.
