Find pages containing broken links.

[wwmind]

hi everyone,

for each internal broken links I need to find all the pages that contain it.

In the Seomoz report there is only a refferer link for each broken link, but google webmaster tools indicates that the dead link is present in many pages of the site.

there is a way to have these data with SEOmoz or other software, in a csv report ?

thanks

Hi

I would use Xenu's Link Sleuth (freeware)

[wwmind]

I had problems with Xenu on large sites.

I've used Xenu's Link Sleuth on sites with +5.000 pages. Worked just fine for me. But two setups are never equally alike.

But if you re not satisfied with Xenu try looking for some of the pro sitemap apps - a lot of them come with a "broken links checker" tool ...

Hi wwmind,

I was going suggest Xenu, but also Screaming Frog. There's a both a free and paid version. To crawl more than 500 URLs, you'd need to get a license for the paid version.

The other option, if you can't find all of your broken links, is to redirect them via a 301. Installing a bunch of 301's via .htaccess or another means isn't as good of a solution as fixing your links, but it might offer a more scalable solution.

Regardless, best of luck with your SEO!
