Broken Link Checker

Crawl any website and find all broken links (404s, 5xx errors, timeouts). Returns the broken URL, HTTP status code, anchor text, and the source page where the link was found. Essential for SEO audits and site maintenance.

What It Returns

  • Broken URL and HTTP status code
  • Anchor text of the broken link
  • Source page URL where the link appears
  • Error type (404, 500, timeout, DNS failure)
  • Total pages crawled and links checked

Use Cases

  • SEO audits to fix broken backlinks
  • Website maintenance and quality assurance
  • Competitor site analysis
  • Agency reporting for clients

Example Input

{
"startUrl": "https://example.com",
"maxPages": 100,
"checkExternalLinks": true
}

Example Output

{
"brokenUrl": "https://example.com/old-page",
"statusCode": 404,
"anchorText": "Learn More",
"sourcePage": "https://example.com/about",
"errorType": "Not Found"
}

Pricing

Charged per page crawled. Auditing a 100-page site typically costs under $0.05.

Tips

  • Set maxPages to limit crawl scope on large sites
  • Enable checkExternalLinks to find broken outbound links
  • Run monthly to catch newly broken links
