Why Use a Bulk URL Checker?

Sitemap Validation

Verify that every URL in your XML sitemap is valid and accessible before submitting to Google Search Console.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does this tool use pattern analysis instead of live fetching?

Browser security prevents direct HTTP requests to external domains due to CORS policies. Live status checking requires a server-side proxy. This tool performs instant client-side URL structure analysis — identifying malformed URLs, likely 404 patterns, redirect indicators, and validity issues without any server calls. Results are immediate and your URL list stays private.

What does a bulk 404 checker do?

A bulk 404 checker scans multiple URLs to identify which ones are likely returning a 404 Not Found error. In SEO, 404 errors on pages that previously had backlinks or internal links waste link equity and create poor user experiences. This tool flags URLs with 404-indicative patterns so you can prioritize which pages need redirects or restoration.

What is the difference between a 301 and 302 redirect?

A 301 redirect is permanent — search engines transfer the full SEO value of the original URL to the destination. A 302 redirect is temporary — search engines keep indexing the original URL. Always use 301 redirects when permanently moving or consolidating pages to preserve rankings.

How do I fix broken links found by this checker?

For internal broken links: either restore the missing page, update the link to point to an existing page, or set up a 301 redirect from the broken URL to the correct destination. For external broken links: replace them with a working alternative URL or remove the link entirely.

Can I check more than 100 URLs?

This tool processes up to 100 URLs per run. For larger lists, split your URLs into batches of 100 and run multiple checks. For full-site crawls with thousands of URLs, consider dedicated crawling tools like Screaming Frog or Ahrefs Site Audit.
