Why Linkpatch?

Webmasters need better communication from their websites when something goes wrong. It makes a bad first impression when the first page a user sees on your site is a 404 error. Chances are, that user will leave instead of searching for what they want on your site.

Link Checkers aren't enough

Crawling your site for broken links does not account for:

  • Links from external sites
  • Common user misspellings
  • Out of date links without redirects

(Not to mention, you must remember to crawl regularly to account for new/modified content.)

Linkpatch is always watching

Linkpatch is constantly monitoring your site(s), and will email you a report as soon as someone sees your 404 error page.

It works for any kind of broken link, providing all the details you need to fix the problem ... fast ... and for good!

How it Works:

1

Each site is assigned a unique javascript tracking code. Simply copy/paste that code onto the bottom of your website's custom error pages.

2

When someone is directed to your error page, the tracking code will record all the information needed to find and fix the problem, then email it to you.

3

Fix the broken link or setup a redirect from the broken URL to the new one.

Features and Benefits:

10-second install, no clutter

Simply paste the one-line javascript tracking code onto your website's error pages, and Linkpatch is installed. There is no need to clutter your website with more javascript tracking; it's only necessary on the error pages.

Helpful Dashboard

The Linkpatch dashboard allows you to easily manage your sites, view recent errors and make sure the tracking code is properly installed.

Smart Notifications

Linkpatch won't clutter your inbox, because any duplicate errors within a 24-hour period are not emailed to you. It also lets you specify any number of email addresses that you want to be notified of site errors.

Pretty Emails

Not only do notifications look good, they are also packed with information about who ran into the error, where they came from, and what they might be looking for. It's got everything you need to take action and fix the problem.

Ignore Stuff

Once you've been monitoring a site for awhile, you may choose to ignore errors without a referring page, or ignore errors that pertain to links in certain directories on the site. Linkpatch allows you to do both.
