Help Center Broken Link Checker
Paste an article or collection URL to find broken internal links in its content. The results show the link text and destination so you can find the exact reference to fix.
Worked example
A password guide links to /account/security, which returns HTTP 410. The checker lists the anchor text, the destination and “Broken”. A separate link that returns HTTP 403 is listed for manual verification.
How it works
The checker reads the article or main content and follows the first eight distinct internal HTTPS links in document order. A 404 or 410 is marked broken. Successful 2xx responses are reachable. Timeouts, access restrictions and server errors remain unverified.
Frequently asked questions
How many pages and links does one scan check?
Each scan starts from one page and tests up to eight unique links on the same origin. The result also gives the number of eligible links found in that content.
Are redirects treated as broken links?
The checker follows up to three public redirects and reports the final address. A redirect to a successful page is reachable. Check the destination if it might point to the wrong article.
Does the tool catch soft 404s or broken heading anchors?
The link check uses HTTP responses. A missing article that returns a successful status or a missing heading on an otherwise working page needs a browser check.
