Key features of the Broken Link Checker

The Broken Link Checker feature performs several vital actions to ensure your website performs optimally.

Checking your website or blog for dead hyperlinks

The Netpeak Broken Link validator evaluates the first line of HTTP headers to identify status codes. It finds URLs either inaccessible or those returning 4xx and above HTTP status codes. Highlights URLs that yield a 4xx HTTP status code. Such URLs, often indicative of errors during server requests, are also covered under the “Broken Pages” report.

Identifying errors with description, threat, and how to fix them

Broken link finder pinpoints and describes each error, elucidating its threat to the website's performance. It also guides users on how to address and rectify these issues effectively.

Generating special Broken Links issue report

With the Bulk Export feature, you can export all available reports or a specific one. The special Broken Links issue report clarifies the target URL's status code. It informs you of the specific nature of the problem, be it a 404 error indicating a page not found or other server-related issues. The anchor text information sheds light on the clickable text used for the link. The URL Source View helps you navigate directly to the source of the issue, streamlining the troubleshooting process.
