Broken Link Checker – WordPress Plugin

Do you ever get paranoid thinking about if there is something wrong with your blog like broken links? Links from other blogs or the images that you got from Flickr or other sources may cease to exist at times. So how do you figure out what to do at these times?

First off, you must know that the links are broken in order to fix it. If your blog has 10 odd posts then it is not a big deal. Think about a blog like NPXP which already has more than 121 Posts in less than 54 days.

I would definitely worry about all the dead links that are already there on my blog. So here I am helping you out the best way to tackle Broken links and images on your WordPress blog.

Broken Link Checker Plugin for WordPress blogs is like an awesome gift to bloggers like you and me.

I will detail out the reasons why this Broken Link plugin is awesome:

• Checks for Broken links in your blog’s posts, pages, comments, blogroll and more.
• Any image which doesn’t load is detected and reported to you.
• Has the ability to even detect broken redirected links.
• New posts or modified posts go through an immediate scrutiny of broken links checking.
• Anchor texts are checked for broken links.
• Detected broken links can be modified right from the plugins interface and you don’t have to do it manually on each individual post.

How To Install Broken Link Checker Plugin:

1)    Search for “Broken Link Checker” Plugin

2)    Install the plugin By Janis Elsts

3)    Activate it and select the options according to your requirements.

I have checked the option “nofollow” the broken links because I do not want to pass on the Link love to a dead link.
