Launching a website is a great feeling! It’s a major accomplishment and provides the ultimate satisfaction for all the hard work that goes into the creative process. Myaandrews.com is another website that I’m proud of and I know that even though a great milestone has been met, another important part of the work must be continued.

The fun part I’m referring to is called SEO! An important aspect of SEO is ensuring that all of the links on my website are working properly. When links are broken, it can trigger an unpleasant user experience and impact SEO efforts in a negative way. While keeping that in mind, it’s time to optimize the site and fix all broken links as soon as possible.

So, how does one identify broken links? A very cool tool called the broken link checker, provided by Ahrefs, can find every broken link across my website. All I have to do is enter my website’s URL, and it does the work of pulling this data straight from the source.

Using the broken link checker tool gives me the ability to quickly identify every broken URL and redirect them where they need to go.

Ahrefs also offers the convenience of using the broken link checker directly in my toolbar. Easy access is always favorable and necessary when managing a lot of links on a website. It also doesn’t hurt that the toolbar extension includes additional features, like keyword metrics for SERP. At least 100,000 users, including SEO professionals, rely on the extension to stay in the know.

Staying on top of broken links is essential for keeping my website running smoothly and ranking well in search results. Thanks to Ahrefs, I can easily find and fix those pesky links in no time. With tools like this at my disposal, maintaining my site is less of a task and more of an opportunity to keep things fresh and optimized. Now, with broken links out of the way, I can focus on what really matters—creating awesome content and growing my online presence.
