Broken Link Checker
Broken links frustrate visitors and signal to Google that your site is poorly maintained. A single 404 error can cost you rankings. Scan your entire page for broken links in under 60 seconds.
What does the Broken Link Checker check?
Everything you need to know about your broken link checker in one report.
404 Not Found Links
Finds all links pointing to pages that no longer exist — the most common and damaging type of broken link.
Redirect Chains
Identifies links that redirect (301/302), which slow down crawling and dilute link equity.
Timeout Errors
Detects links to pages that take too long to respond — often a sign of server issues.
External Links
Checks outbound links to other websites that may have gone offline or moved.
Internal Links
Scans all internal links across your page to catch accidentally deleted pages.
Anchor Text
Shows the anchor text for each broken link so you can find it quickly in your content.
How it works
Enter your page URL
Paste any URL — SEO-Snap will crawl that page and extract all links found on it.
We check every link
Each link is tested in parallel — checking status codes, redirects, and timeouts.

Frequently asked questions
How do broken links affect SEO?
Broken links waste Google's crawl budget, create poor user experiences, and signal poor site maintenance. Google uses these signals to assess site quality, which affects rankings.
How many links does the checker scan?
SEO-Snap scans up to 100 links per page. For larger sites, run the checker on multiple key pages.
What should I do when I find a broken link?
Either update the link to point to the correct URL, remove the link entirely, or if it's an internal link, restore the deleted page or set up a redirect.
How often should I check for broken links?
Check monthly, or after any major content updates. External sites you link to can go offline at any time without warning.
