Let's suppose you are the webmaster of a large website. No matter what the site is about, you should always make sure that every link contained by it is working properly. Doing so usually requires checking every link manually. In case there are many of them, this operation can take a lot of time and effort and may seem impossible to complete. Fortunately, there is a solution to this matter and that's the Fast Link Checker software. As its name clearly states, the program is able to quickly and easily check all the links of a website, spotting the ones that aren't working. The process of scanning links is completely automatic.

The program can be run without problems using almost any version of the Windows operating system, ranging from XP to Windows 7. The installation process is point and click and can be completed by most users in seconds.

The interface of Fast Link Checker is no eye candy but it offers a lot of functionality in an intuitive way. One can use the graphical buttons or the well known menu for accessing the program's features. As such, clicking on the New button will open a window in which one just needs to enter the website link, make some adjustments, like setting the type of links that will be checked, and that's it. At this point, Fast Link Checker will start analyzing each link of the website and will display this information in real time, in its interface.

The total number of links found and scanned is displayed, together with the ones that are not working. For making it easier to spot broken links, these are displayed using the red color. After the scanning process is over, one can export it in one of the many formats available, for later analysis. HTML, CSV or plain text files are supported for saving all the scanned links. Besides that, the list of websites added to the program can be saved as a file, for later use.

Pros

It features a simple interface that anyone can use. Besides that, it can automatically scan all the links of a website by simply entering its starting link. Furthermore, information regarding the scanning process can be displayed in real time in the interface. Moreover, a report containing the status of all the links scanned can be saved in a wide range of file formats, like HTML or CSV.

Cons

There aren't so many options available and advanced users might not appreciate this. Fast Link Checker is the right software for scanning all the links of any website, easily spotting broken ones.
