Caresort Broken Link Monitor checks every link in your posts, pages, comments, custom fields, and menus — then reports what's broken straight to your dashboard and inbox.
Free forever on wordpress.org · No account required · v1.0.0
Built for the same content types WordPress site owners actually use:
No trial, no credit card. The free plugin covers full-site scanning out of the box.
Post & page content, approved comments, custom fields (ACF-ready), and navigation menu links — all covered.
Daily or weekly checks run quietly in the background through WP-Cron. No need to remember to check manually.
Get notified the moment a scan turns up a new broken link, with a count and a direct link to the report.
Search, filter, and sort broken links right from wp-admin. Recheck, ignore, or delete with one click.
See your site's link health the moment you log in — no digging through submenus required.
Skip sites that block automated checks — like LinkedIn — so your report stays free of false positives.
All plans include the core scanner. Pro and Agency add speed, automation, and client-ready reporting.
For personal blogs and small sites.
For businesses that can't afford dead links.
For agencies managing client sites.
One email whenever we release a new Pro feature or update — nothing else. Unsubscribe any time.
We'll only email you about Pro updates — no spam, ever.
No. Scans run in the background via WP-Cron, or manually on demand — either way, link checks never run during a visitor's page load.
Yes, both internal and external links are checked. You can exclude specific domains — like ones that block automated requests — from the Settings page.
No. Pro builds on the same database table the Free version uses, so your existing broken-link history carries over automatically.
The plugin quietly falls back to Free-tier behavior — daily/weekly scans and email alerts keep working. You just lose access to Pro-only features like hourly scans and Slack alerts until you renew.
Yes — licenses can be reassigned to a different site at any time from your account, so you're not locked to the domain you first activated on.
