Hello Friends

A hyperlink on a web page that will point users to an incorrect URL,a missing page or a missing file. Broken hyperlinks often lead users to a 404 File Not Found error.

sonvi.belani · 01-23-2017, 04:09 AM

hi,
Broken links are links that don’t work. Some of the reasons why links don’t work include:

A website is no longer available
A webpage was moved without a redirect being added
The URL structure of a website was changed

If you click a broken link, you’ll see a 404 page error or similar message explaining the webpage is not available.
thanks.

hi,

A hyperlink on a Web page that will point users to an incorrect URL, a missing page, or a missing file. Broken hyperlinks often lead users to a 404 File Not Found error.

The concept behind broken link building is a very simple one:

Find resources pages within your relevant market sectors
Check the links on those pages to identify any that are broken
Contact the person behind the site, tell them about the broken link and suggest an alternative quality resource
Piggyback a suggestion of one of your own resources on that suggestion.

Thanks,
