Manage your site by maintaining the accuracy of its links.
REL Link Checker Lite is a free easy-to-use link checker tool to help you maintain the accuracy of links on your Web site. The program will help you easily locate broken links and links containing syntactic errors. This is the free version of a more powerful tool, Web Link Validator.
the limit to check 1'000 links is very poor - even the best not free version (costs much too much) you can buy from the distributor offering this lite version wouldn't be able to check all the links of a site with much more than 20'000 links, so I will have to look for something more useful
Summary
good for websites with just a few links

Pros

Cons

Summary

Pros
It probably does what it says
Cons
1000 link limitation. Interface needs improvement.
Summary
If your website has more than 1000 links you'll need to upgrade to the Pro version. I chose to go with the free Xenu Link Checker instead.
SWEET!

Pros
Does exactly what I wanted it to do and that is, the ability to import a list of URLs and determine if they are valid or not. As a bonus, it will tell you where a re-direct points. Can take the results and export to Excel (very handy in my case)!
Cons
It gets down to the last 5 or 6 URLs and the application begins banging the CPU at a consistent 50%+. I let it go for about 10-15 min. then had to hit the stop button. Ended up checking these URLs manually. I don't have a huge problem with this, but it would be nice to know what the workaround is. Giving 5 stars anyway.
Summary
great tool: checks and validates internal and external links

Summary
Good tool, a little confusing at first
gbh1935
Pros
Good information in the results display. Nice ability to sort information.
Cons
it actually took a minute to figure out how to use it. I don't like having to look at the manual...
Summary
pretty amazing - you just have to import the links first
maple3s
Pros
free software, does an amazing job.
Cons
Could be more clear what to do to get the job done. First you have to import the links then you can have them verified.

Not what I wanted

Summary
A lemmon! Installed like a breeze, hope it uninstalls the same way ;). This program only verified that my web pages existed. I already knew that. I could not get it to check the external links at all. What a waste of time.
for a quick check on your links, this will do just fine
Pros
Cons
Summary
Every webmaster should use this program.

This is a great program. I hate websites where half the links are dead, it makes me leave their site! This will help you keep on top of dead links, EASILY.
