Broken links can hurt user experience and make website maintenance more difficult. To make link auditing easier, I've been improving the ToolsVale Broken Link Checker, a free online tool that helps website owners find broken links and understand where they occur.

What's improved?
The latest usability improvements focus on making scan reports easier to navigate and review.
Interactive status filters: Quickly filter results by Broken, Redirects, Blocked, OK, or Checked.
Improved results table: Better column sizing makes long URLs easier to read without squeezing other information.
Mobile-friendly reports: Horizontal scrolling helps keep result columns usable on smaller screens.
Better sitemap references: Sitemap entries are displayed correctly instead of behaving like inactive links.
Searchable results: Find specific URLs, statuses, or text using the report search field.
Shared reports: Improvements to report viewing help users access and review scan results.
Scan history: Reopen saved scans from browser-local history for easier comparison and follow-up.
Why use a broken link checker?
When maintaining a website, manually checking hundreds of links is time-consuming. A broken link checker can help you identify URLs that need attention, review redirects, and locate the pages where problematic links appear.
This is useful for bloggers, SEO professionals, website owners, and developers who regularly maintain content-heavy websites.
