What it does

Dr. Link Check helps you track down broken and malicious links on your website. The service crawls through the entire code of your site and gives each discovered link a thorough examination to be sure the link works as intended and doesn’t point to a server known for hosting malware or phishing attacks.

Easily check your website for broken and malicious links. Find and fix 404 errors, mistyped URLs, invalid SSL certificates, or links to questionable websites.

Non-working links are annoying and reflect poorly on your professionalism. They not only deter visitors from staying on and returning to your site, but they can also negatively impact your search engine rankings. Even worse than a broken link is a link to a website that causes harm through malware or phishing. Instead of manually checking all the pages of your site and clicking through all the outgoing links, let Dr. Link Check do the work and give you a report of the links that need your attention. Beginning with a start URL, our bot crawls through the HTML and CSS code of your entire website and examines all the links it can find. This includes internal page links and outbound links to…from drlinkcheck.com

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
