Introduction

Few things frustrate users more than clicking a link only to see “404 Page Not Found.” Broken links damage credibility, frustrate visitors, and signal poor site maintenance to search engines. The Seostrix Broken Link Checker helps you quickly detect and fix broken internal, external, and media links, ensuring a smoother user experience and stronger SEO performance.

For a complete site health overview, pair it with the Site Audit Tool and improve metadata with the Meta Tag Analyzer.
