What this check finds
This page focuses on broken links in crawl context. The crawler records the fetched URL, response status, discovery source when available, metadata, redirect outcome, and history signals that explain why a finding appears.
Use the check to review links that resolve to missing, forbidden, or failed destinations. The goal is not just to report a problem, but to show the URL-level evidence needed to decide whether the issue is intentional, accidental, fixed, or still unresolved.

Why this check matters
Separate internal and external causes
Review whether the failure is caused by your own route, a redirect, or a target page.
Confirm the fix
Run another crawl and check whether the broken-link finding is resolved.
How to fix and verify it
- Run a focused crawl. Start with the affected website or section and keep settings consistent for follow-up comparisons.
- Inspect the evidence. Review affected URLs, source pages, HTTP statuses, metadata values, and crawl lineage before making changes.
- Apply the smallest safe fix. Update the page, template, route, redirect rule, canonical tag, or internal link that caused the finding.
- Rerun the audit. Confirm that the finding is resolved and did not create a new issue elsewhere.
When to monitor it
Small technical issues become expensive when they remain invisible. For broken links, a repeatable crawl helps distinguish a one-time anomaly from a persistent problem caused by templates, redirects, routes, metadata, or content changes.
Start with the concrete evidence: affected URL, source page, HTTP status, metadata value, redirect target, or comparison row. After the fix is made, run another crawl with comparable settings to confirm the finding is resolved.
Frequently asked questions
What does this page check?
It checks links that resolve to missing, forbidden, or failed destinations and presents the result as summary counts plus URL-level evidence. That makes the audit useful for deciding what to fix and for verifying the result in a later crawl.
Will the audit start immediately after I enter a URL?
No. The URL is transferred to the crawler seed field so you can review scope, limits, redirects, and sitemap policy before starting.
Can this be monitored over time?
Yes. Registered users can create scheduled audits and review whether findings are new, resolved, or still unresolved across completed crawls.
Is this only for SEO?
No. The same findings are useful for site maintenance, release validation, migration checks, and general quality assurance.
