Broken Link Checker

A SEO tool to find broken (404) and redirected (301, 307, 308) links in all frames

Broken Link Checker is a powerful SEO Chrome extension designed to identify broken (404) and redirected (301, 307, 308) links across all frames of a webpage, including top and sub-frames. It provides a detailed status code report for every link, categorizing broken links separately for quick identification. The tool supports validating links inside about:blank frames and notifies users about skipped links such as mailto or non-HTTP URLs.

Features include:

  • Deep search within the same domain for comprehensive link analysis.
  • Keyword-based filtering to ignore URLs and expedite scanning.
  • Extraction of embedded text links not marked as hyperlinks.
  • Filtering options for displaying or hiding links based on HTTP status codes (2XX, 3XX, 4XX, 5XX).

The extension also boosts validation speed by processing up to five links simultaneously, and offers flexible UI options including popup windows or embedded frames for your convenience. Enhance your website’s SEO health and user navigation easily with this essential tool.

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Broken Link Checker requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details
  • Critical Allows access to all websites, posing a significant security risk as it can monitor and modify data from any visited site.
  • Medium ******* ******* ************* ***** *** ** ******* *** **** ******* ****** ******** *******
Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Broken Link Checker has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
