Broken outbound link finder

Paste a page. We pull the affiliate links on it, follow each one, and flag the broken or degraded ones so you can fix them before they cost commission.

What you get

  • The affiliate links found on the page.
  • A health status for each: healthy, degraded, broken, or unverifiable.
  • The merchant domain so you can see which programs are at fault.
  • A quick way to escalate to a full-site monitor if too many are failing.

How to triage the results

Start with the broken links. Those earn nothing and erode reader trust. Degraded links usually mean the merchant page loads but tracking looks off, or the destination redirects to a generic page. If you only have a few broken links, fix them in your CMS. If the same network keeps failing, run the full affiliate link checker across more pages or set up monitoring.

Frequently asked questions

Does this only check affiliate links?

Yes, the free scanner focuses on affiliate links since those are the ones that directly affect revenue. The full Partner Revenue Guard product can monitor every outbound link on every page on a schedule.

How is this different from the affiliate link checker?

They share the same engine. This page is framed for publishers who want a quick health check across the affiliate links on a post; the affiliate link checker walks through the same flow with extra context on tracking parameters.

Will it catch soft 404s?

Yes. We classify a link as broken or degraded when the destination resolves to an obvious error page or generic homepage instead of the intended landing page.

How fast is the scan?

Most pages return in under 30 seconds. Pages with many affiliate links or slow merchant servers can take longer.
