With our Broken Link Checker, you see immediately which bookmarks are still working.
How it works
Our system checks your links once every 24 hours to see if they are still viable. If there is no response from the server, it will show the title of your affected bookmark with a strike-through.
Enable/Disable Broken Link Checker
For PRO users, the Broken Link Checker is on by default. If you want to disable this feature for some reason, follow these steps:
Open the User men (click the icon of you in the top right corner).
Click the option Settings.
Toggle Broken link checker to off.
Click outside the window to continue. We save your setting automatically.
You'll see this change immediately. If you want to re-enable this feature, toggle the feature once more.
Broken Link Options
When you discover a broken link, you can click it (left button). A menu will appear with the following options:
Open anyway: our system might have tried the destination website at a downtime. Try it before you delete it.
This link is not broken remove the strike-through.
Delete bookmark: remove the entire link from your Bookmark widget. There is no way to undo this.
Edit bookmark: look at the URL you've saved. Perhaps, you can solve the problem yourself.
Search for an alternative link on Google: take the title and URL of your broken link and use it in a search query.
Visit homepage: with Start.me you can save deep links directly to an article or category on a website. When someone moves these articles or changes the URLs, the links could become broken. Visiting the site to find out more.
