// free tool · broken links

Free broken link checker for any public page.

Enter a page URL and we check its links for 404 errors, server errors and redirects, so you can fix dead links that frustrate visitors and waste crawl budget.

Check a page for broken links

We test up to 30 links per run and show each HTTP status code.

We fetch the URL from our server, check only public pages and do not store results.

Broken Link Checker FAQ

Common questions about this tool and what the results mean.

Ask us about your results
Why fix broken links?

They create dead ends for visitors, waste crawl budget and can signal poor maintenance. Fixing them is a quick win.

Why does a working link show an error?

Some sites block automated requests. If the link opens fine in your browser, you can usually ignore the error.

Does the tool check my whole site?

It checks one page at a time. For site-wide link health use our full SEO audit.

Are external links checked too?

Yes. Internal and external http and https links are both tested, up to 30 per run.
