How Often Should I Check For Broken Links?

If you run a business website, your customers might have complained in the past about broken links not leading anywhere. So just how often should you be checking your website for broken links? 

Understanding Broken Links 

A broken link is a web page that a user can't access for various reasons. Web servers will typically return an error message when a user tries to access a broken link. Dead links are sometimes referred to as "link rot."

Setting Your Website Up For Zero Broken Links 

The first thing you're going to need to do is set yourself for success the first time around so you don't run into any problems with broken links when you launch your website. Several tools can help with this process. At Virteom, we offer services that add specific tools to your website, like SEO (Search Engine Optimization).

Hiring a developer might seem like the go-to option for this subject matter, but they might end up breaking other links along the way. That's why it's crucial to hire tech-savvy professional people who will know what they're doing and work with you from start to finish. Thanks to our certified tools, the process might be a little longer, but we will ensure that no links come up broken.
