Is there a quick and easy way to check a website to see which outbound links open in the browser window and not in a new window?

I have just come across a few blogs on a website that have outbound links that open in the browser window (and therefore direct people off site to these links) (there are also other outbound links that open in a new window)- is there a quick and easy way to check which outbounds links open in a new window and which open in the browser window?

Much obliged

Liam

If the <a></a><a>tag includes _target="blank" then the link will open in a new window/tab, if that helps at all.</a>

Greetings Liam,
You could use a site spider like ScreamingFrog for example to spider each page and search for target="_blank". That would give you a nice list of the links that spawn a new window. You would set up a search term to find on the pages inside the "Custom Tab"

Good luck!

Thanks Ria - looking for software to make that process quicker

Excellent thanks Dana

I have a premium subscription to Screaming Frog so I'll get on this straight away - thought there must be an easy way to find them but forgot about the custom settings in Screaming Frog

Will get on this right away

Kind Regards

Liam
