William Rock ran a Xenu site scan on

nlpca(dot)com

and mentioned the following:

...ran a test with Xenu site scan and it found a lot of broken links with 403, 301, 302, 404 Errors.

Other items found:

Broken page-local links (also named 'anchors', 'fragmentidentifiers'): http://www.nlpca.com/DCweb/Interesting_NLP_Sites.html#null  anchor occurs multiple timeshttp://www.nlpca.com/DCweb/Interesting_NLP_Sites.html#US  not found

Could somone give us an output of that list, and which ones of these errors do we need to clean up for SEO purposes?

Thank you.

I can't quite follow - output from what?

Are you asking someone else to run a Xenu/Screaming frog of this URL (http://www.nlpca.com/DCweb/Interesting_NLP_Sites.html#null  anchor occurs multiple timeshttp://www.nlpca.com/DCweb/Interesting_NLP_Sites.html#U)  and give you feedback on what to fix (beyond the obvious that any 400 and 500 level errors should be tackled first)?

Hi Andrea,

I'm on a mac with a slow Windows Emulator. I was hoping someone could show me the URLs that need fixing seen by running the Xenu link test of

nlpca(dot)com

Hi Bob,

There is another tool which is developed for Mac too. It is called Screaming frog.

With that you can also check the website health just as with Xenu.

I hope it will be helpful.

I agree - try Screaming Frog. I use it - and prefer it to Xenu - and it's free for up to 500 URLs or $99 for a license for unlimited. Even with a slower computer it can run in the background (leave it on overnight).

Awesome, thanks Istvan and Andrea!
