Use the Online Broken Link Checker to Make Your Website More Usable and Trusted

Even the most accurate webmasters find dead links and other mistakes on their websites over time. It's very difficult to ensure a website's integrity, especially if the website is growing and frequently updated. Moreover, it is far more difficult to control pages, images and other files on other peoples' sites that you may be linking to - you would hardly know if they are still reachable six months down the line and you don't want to link to nonexistent URLs - unless you have a good broken link checking tool that will conduct regular website audits and alert you to found errors.

Why should you beware of broken links?

Dead links create a bad impression on people and have a negative impact on search engines because of the following reasons:

• Upon clicking on a non-existent page URL and seeing the "page not found" answer, or upon viewing an image holder instead of a nice picture, your website visitors will question the reliability of your product or service. To them, if your site contains errors, your product is unlikely to be perfect and error-free. Broken links may cost you potential customers.
• Search engines won't follow a broken link and crawl your entire site after they find such a dead link. This may cause them to signal your site as a low-quality one, and assign your site pages lower keyword rankings.
