Broken links and misspellings in content harm the credibility of your website. They have an impact on – search rankings, user experience, and visitor traffic.
So, it’s important that you check and update your content on a regular basis.
We’re using Siteimprove quality assurance software to help web editors do this. It’s reporting on our external Academic Unit and Support Services websites – 60,500 pages !
How it works
Siteimprove crawls your website each week, highlights issues and sends you a report that:
- checks every page and PDF on your site for broken links
- checks for spelling errors and potential misspellings on every page
- highlights elements on the page for you so you see errors in context
There’s also an inventory of all media files, documents, email addresses, and phone numbers. This makes it easy to audit your website and keep things up-do-date.
Siteimprove won’t fix broken links and misspellings errors on your website but it does make it easy to find them.
Improve the quality of your web content – get rid of those broken links and misspellings and start using your Siteimprove report!
