Stop Losing Customers (and Google Rank) to 404s
Every broken link on your site is a dead-end for a potential buyer, an obstacle to a developer reading your docs, and a direct negative mark on your site’s SEO authority. Manual crawling with desktop software is tedious, slow, and easy to forget.
With Seabhac.io’s Broken Links Monitor, our headless browser crawler recursively sweeps your web pages on a schedule and alerts you when your internal or external links break.
Built for Modern Web Apps (SPAs)
Most traditional broken link tools are basic HTML scrapers. They completely miss links loaded dynamically via JavaScript, React portals, or single-page frameworks. Seabhac.io runs a real headless browser, executing JavaScript fully on the client-side to see exactly what a human sees.
Fully Configurable Audits
Set up your continuous link scan in seconds and customize it to match your site’s layout:
- Target URL: Choose any landing page, blog feed, or documentation root.
- Ignore Patterns: Specify URL segments to skip (such as external affiliate networks, social login redirects, or development subdomains).
- Max Depth & Limit: Bound scans (e.g., check up to 500 links) to prevent overloading your development servers or external third-party servers.
Smart Alerting
You only want alerts when links are genuinely broken, not during a brief, 2-second hosting flicker.
- Double-Check Validation: When our runner finds an anomalous status code (e.g., HTTP 404, 500, or connection timeout), it automatically retries the link with progressive jitter backoff.
- Granular Alerts: Route lists of broken links directly to Slack, Teams, or email with detailed status codes and parent URLs so your team knows exactly where the broken link lives and what needs to be fixed.
