Dr. Link Check is a web service that crawls a site from a start URL and reports links or resources needing attention. It follows HTML and CSS to check internal and outbound links, images, stylesheets, and other resources. Checks include broken links, blacklist matches, soft errors, and SSL certificate validity. Results can be sorted, filtered, exported to CSV, and traced to link locations in source code. Scans can run monthly, weekly, or daily, with status reports sent by email. You can set URL include and exclude rules, limit crawl speed, and choose recipients. Its blacklist checker compares links with phishing and malware lists and can alert you if one of your pages is listed. Dr. Link Check offers a free plan; paid plans start at 13.00 USD per month. Standard covers five websites and 10,000 links per site, Professional covers 10 and 50,000, and Premium covers 15 and 200,000. A Lite plan supports two websites and 1,500 links for one-time checks. The crawler does not execute JavaScript, and only one check runs at a time.
Who it is for
It suits website owners who need scheduled link, SSL, resource, and blacklist checks from a browser. The configurable reports and CSV export also help people managing several projects.
