Paste URLs to find broken links, redirects, HTTP errors, and pages that need to be fixed or replaced.

Fix suggestion: Replace or remove broken URLs before users and Google find them.

Scoring logic

How broken link priority works

Prioritize links by status severity, page importance, and whether the link supports a conversion or SEO-critical page.

4xx / 5xx errors

Fix these first because users cannot reach the target.

Redirect chains

Update links to the final URL when redirects become long or unstable.

Healthy links

Keep them, but recheck old resource pages periodically.

Sample results

Old resource roundup

Input: 50 URLs checked, 7 broken, 9 redirects
Result: High maintenance priority
Action: Replace dead resources and update redirected URLs to final destinations.

Product documentation links

Input: 18 URLs checked, 1 broken, 2 redirects
Result: Medium priority
Action: Fix the broken support link first, then clean redirect links in the next edit pass.

Fresh landing page

Input: 12 URLs checked, 0 broken, 1 redirect
Result: Healthy
Action: Keep the final URL in the source to avoid future redirect drift.

What to do next

Fix 404 and 5xx URLs first. Replace what still matters, remove what no longer helps, and update long redirect chains to final URLs.

FAQ
