A broken link — whether pointing to a page that no longer exists on your own site or to something that’s disappeared elsewhere — wastes a visitor’s click and signals a site that isn’t being maintained, and search engines that repeatedly encounter broken links can treat it as a quality signal worth noting. This scans up to 50 links and repairs what’s actually broken.
Spot-check a handful of your own links before ordering, if you want a rough sense of scale
Click through a few links from your main navigation and a couple of older blog posts. Finding one or two broken links this way is a useful confirmation the problem exists, but it won’t tell you the true scope — a comprehensive scan is the only reliable way to know the real count.
Broken link scan & repair - up to 50 links
Up to 50 broken links found and repaired, each with the fix that actually fits.
- Full backup taken before we start
- If we can’t fix it, you get your money back
- We never ask for your own password
This or something else?
| You want a scan and repair covering up to 50 broken links | This fix covers it |
| Your site likely has more broken links than this tier covers | Broken link scan & repair – up to 250 links, or the 1000-link tier for a larger site |
| You’re dealing with redirect chains and loops specifically, not broken links themselves | Redirect chain & loop cleanup |
| You want a report identifying orphaned pages, not broken links | Orphaned page identification report |
What you are seeing
- Visitors or your own testing encountering “page not found” errors when clicking internal or external links
- Search Console flagging broken links in its coverage or link reports
- Links to pages that have since been deleted, moved, or renamed
- External links to other sites that have gone offline or removed the linked content
Common causes
- Internal pages deleted or renamed without setting up a redirect from the old URL
- External sites the content originally linked to going offline or restructuring their own URLs
- A migration or platform change altering URL structure without updating existing links
- Content copied or imported from elsewhere, carrying along links that were never valid on your own site
What we do
- Scan the site comprehensively for broken internal and external links, up to the 50-link scope
- Determine the correct fix for each — a redirect, an updated link, or removal
- Repair internal links pointing to moved or renamed content
- Update or remove external links that are genuinely no longer valid
- Verify each repair resolves correctly
- Provide a written summary of what was found and fixed
What is included
- A comprehensive scan for broken links, up to 50
- Each broken link repaired with the appropriate fix
- Verification of each repair
- A written summary of findings and fixes
Not included
- Scanning beyond the 50-link scope — a larger tier is available if your site likely exceeds this
- Redirect chain or loop cleanup, a separate, related fix if that’s the specific issue found
- Ongoing monitoring for new broken links as content changes over time
- Recreating content that’s genuinely, permanently gone with no reasonable replacement
Questions about this fix
How do I know if 50 links is enough for my site, or if I need a larger tier?
It depends on your site's size and age — a newer or smaller site is more likely to fall within this scope, while a larger, older site with years of content often exceeds it; we can do an initial estimate if you're unsure before committing to a tier.
What happens if the scan finds more than 50 broken links?
We'd let you know and discuss whether to proceed with the highest-priority 50 or step up to a larger tier that covers the full scope found.
Will you fix every broken link the same way?
No — the right fix depends on the specific case: a redirect where content moved, an updated link where the destination changed, or removal where there's genuinely nothing appropriate to link to anymore.
Does this include links from other sites pointing to me, or just my own site's outgoing links?
This covers links on your own site, both internal and pointing outward — links from other sites pointing to yours are a different, separate concern involving those sites' own content.
How often should a broken link scan be repeated?
Periodically, particularly after significant content changes or a migration — broken links accumulate gradually over time as content and external sites change, so this isn't typically a one-time, permanent fix.

If this is the second time this year
A bad update breaking the site is a symptom of updates not being tested first. Care plans run every update on a staging clone before it reaches your live site, which is the actual fix for this happening again.
Your access, your rules
Create a separate admin account for us and delete it when we are done. For anything else, we get in touch and agree a method — never a form field on this site, never by reply to an email.
We back up first, always
Before anything is touched we take a full backup and keep it for 30 days. If a fix goes wrong, we put the site back exactly as it was.
If it is not what you bought
If the problem turns out smaller than what you ordered, we refund the difference. If it is bigger, we stop and send a quote before doing any extra work.
If we cannot fix it
You get back what we received. Diagnosis is on us — you only pay when the problem is actually solved. The payment processor takes its fee before the money reaches us, so we never hold it and it is not ours to return. That is true here as everywhere else.
If it comes back
Reply within seven days of delivery and we put it back on the bench at no cost. The fix is not finished until it holds.
What we are responsible for
If something goes wrong with a fix, our responsibility is limited to what you paid for it. We take a full backup first so mistakes can be undone, and we tell you before doing anything outside what you bought.
