When to use this

  • You are launching a new site or section.
  • Search Console flagged sitemap or markup issues.
  • You need a quick audit before a client handoff.

  • Nav mega-menu link to a retired category page.
  • Mixed http→https link still 301-chaining.

Common mistakes

How it works

Extracts href links from page HTML (or a fetched URL) and requests status codes from your browser for up to 20 unique URLs. Reports 404/410 and other failures when reachable—CORS may block some hosts.

Limitations

Checks up to 20 unique URLs per run. Some sites block live checks from the browser—paste HTML when fetch fails. Status codes reflect what your browser can reach, not a full server crawl.

Privacy and file handling

Your data stays on your device and is not uploaded.

Formula or method

Unique hrefs are de-duplicated and capped. Status reflects browser-reachable responses, not Googlebot’s view of the whole site.

Important notice

Link checks run from your browser and may be blocked by site security or rate limits. Only the first 20 unique URLs are tested per run.
