Why Switch from Ahrefs?

90% Cheaper for Broken Links

Ahrefs starts at $99/month for a full SEO suite. If you only need broken link checking, Broken Link Scan does it better for $10/month — or free for small sites.

Dedicated, Focused Tool

Ahrefs bundles broken link checking into a massive SEO platform. BLS is purpose-built for broken links, so the interface is cleaner, faster, and easier to act on.

Automated Monitoring & Alerts

Schedule recurring scans and get notified the moment new broken links appear. No need to manually run Site Audit in Ahrefs every time.

No Signup for Your First Scan

Paste any URL and get results in seconds — no account creation, no credit card, no trial period to manage.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Broken Link Scan as accurate as Ahrefs for broken links?
Yes. Broken Link Scan crawls your site in real-time and checks every link's HTTP status. For broken link detection specifically, results are comparable — and you get automated monitoring on top.
What about backlink analysis and keyword research?
Broken Link Scan focuses on broken link detection and monitoring. If you need backlinks, keyword research, or rank tracking, Ahrefs is the better choice. Many teams use both: Ahrefs for SEO strategy and BLS for automated broken link monitoring.
Can I use both Broken Link Scan and Ahrefs?
Absolutely. They complement each other well. Use Ahrefs for your broader SEO strategy and Broken Link Scan for dedicated, automated broken link monitoring with instant alerts.
How many pages can I scan for free?
Up to 500 pages per site, with no signup required — and a free account adds an automated weekly scan with email alerts. Paid plans start at $10/month for up to 5,000 pages and automated daily scans; the REST API comes with the Agency plan.
Does Broken Link Scan check external links too?
Yes. Every outbound link on your pages is checked for broken status, including links to external sites. You get a full picture of your site's link health.
