Broken Link Checker for WordPress: Find and Fix Broken Links Fast

Check for Broken Links scans your entire WordPress site for broken links, dead links, 404 errors and broken images. It shows you exactly where each broken link was found so you can fix it fast.

Your site breaks quietly while you are busy. Pages get deleted, plugins get abandoned, external sites go offline. Google finds the 404 errors before you do, and your rankings pay the price. This plugin finds every broken link across your posts, pages, custom post types and slider content, and Pro extends the scan to comments and custom fields.

Unlike external link checker tools, the plugin runs inside WordPress. It scans private content, drafts and pages behind login that no external crawler can reach.

Version 3 adds five more tools to the same plugin. You can now track your keyword positions, watch how AI assistants mention your brand, repair your internal linking, audit your site for SEO and AEO, and monitor uptime. All of it runs in wp-admin. See the section below.

How It Works

1. Install and scan. Run your first manual scan in seconds and see every broken link on your site.
2. Set your schedule (Pro). Choose daily, weekly or monthly scans. Pick your scan time and timezone.
3. Get alerted (Pro). The moment a link breaks, you get an email report showing the link, its status code and where it appears.
