Find broken links
Public pages only, one at a time
Free, up to 30 requests per 10 minutes per visitor.
Public only, entered by you
Handig Web only reads pages that anyone can see without logging in, and only the address you enter. It skips login pages.
No email addresses or phone numbers
Handig Web refuses to collect them. Links to mailto: and tel: are only counted, never shown or exported.
Copyright stays
Texts, tables and images belong to whoever made them. Use them to check or to quote with a source, not to copy.
One page at a time
No scraping of sites. Handig Web reads what you give: a page, a short list or the sitemap a site offers itself. It follows robots.txt and keeps the pace low.
How it works
Find broken links in three steps
Paste the address
Of one public page, for example an overview with many outgoing links.
Handig Web knocks
For each link Handig Web first asks only for the head of the response, four at a time. If a server refuses that, it asks for the page itself, without reading it.
Fix what is broken
Broken and moved links are at the top, with the code and what it means. Download the list as CSV.
Questions
Good to know
Does Handig Web check my whole site?
This tool checks one page at a time, up to 100 links. Whether every page of your site works, you see in Read a sitemap with Check the pages.
Why is a working link marked as blocked?
Some sites refuse automated visitors (code 403 or 429) or ask through robots.txt to be left alone. Handig Web respects that and says so honestly, instead of guessing.
What is the difference between broken and redirected?
Broken (such as 404 or 500) means the page no longer exists or fails. Redirected means the link still works, but through another address: best update it to the new address.
