While designing and developing and maintaining, websites end up with a lot of dead links, these dead links for sure are extremely frustrating to visitors, but checking them manually is not realistic. Now, you can check for dead links on your websites with these 2 tools.

1.) Link Checker, Online link validation tool : Every link and connection within a Web site must work together flawlessly to ensure effective visitor experiences. Whether your goals are to improve site efficiency, protect the site owner’s integrity, or increase web team productivity. You can check the validity of your links on any Web Page on the net for free. In order to start using it, enter the URL. Link Checker tools will then report all good and dead link on a particuler page, it will check both URL Link and Images Link. 

The report is pretty comprehensive and details the number of OK links, number of redirects and number of forbidden/ broken links in percentages. 

 

2.) Dead-Links.com : Dead-Links is another website which you can use to crawl and find dead links. In order to start, Enter your website or weblog home page URL in the input box available on the website spider will read the html code and check for the broken links. Dead-Link’s spider splits links in two categories, internal, from the same host, and external, outgoing link to different domains. Once you have put your start URL the bot will visit your website and follow all links checking for their status. When finish you will see a report showing all the bad links found, not only 404 status. 

The spider has a limit of 25 pages per domain and 150 external documents with a maximum execution time of 15 minutes. Its also important to note that the spider doesn’t crawl links inside frames or javascript or flash.
