RedirectsFree + Pro
Find the pages people cannot reach
Log the 404 errors visitors hit and check your content for broken outbound links.
Why it helps
Broken links frustrate visitors and waste the links other sites give you. The 404 log shows what people are looking for, and one click turns any entry into a redirect.
How to set it up
- Turn on 404 Monitor and, if you want it, Broken Link Checker in Features.
- Check Rank Bix SEO > 404 Monitor every week or two.
Where to find it:
