About the plugin

SEO Broken Links Monitor helps you protect rankings, user experience, and crawl efficiency by detecting broken URLs before they damage your site. Instead of relying on third-party SaaS platforms, the plugin runs directly in your WordPress environment, giving your team full control over data, performance, and workflow.

The plugin combines an incremental content crawler, a broken-link log, and a redirect manager in a single admin interface. It scans published posts and pages in small batches via WP-Cron, captures problematic links with HTTP status details, and tracks where each broken URL was found so your team can fix issues quickly and confidently.

When visitors hit missing URLs, the plugin can apply intelligent 404 recovery using slug similarity. You can optionally enable automatic redirect creation, define a similarity threshold, and keep manual control through a clear redirect table that includes hit counts and redirect type visibility. This gives you both automation and editorial oversight.

Built for production WordPress websites, the plugin includes secure admin actions with capability checks and nonce validation, dedicated database tables with indexes, lifecycle hooks for activation/deactivation/uninstall, and translation-ready architecture. It is engineered for WordPress 6.x and PHP 8.1+ with code quality aligned to WordPress Coding Standards.

Whether you run a content-heavy blog, a corporate site, or an agency maintenance portfolio, SEO Broken Links Monitor gives your team a practical, privacy-first system to keep link health under control and maintain a clean, trustworthy SEO foundation.
