In this report, I wanted to discuss a couple useful link tools we use.
Before you launch any new website, it’s always a good idea to go through the web pages and make sure they are all linked properly. Having broken links not only looks unprofessional, it will definitely result in many lost sales.
A free web tool we like to use to check our websites can be found at:
Just go to Dead-Links.com, enter your URL, hit the “Launch The Spider” button and bam! Just like that, you have a link validation spider crawling around your website to find any links that might be broken.
Now once you have your site up and running and links are valid, you may want to find out how many votes your site is receiving for its search engine score. There are plenty of tools to do this all over the Net, but we thought we would let you in on one of our favorites. Go to the URL:

Marketleap has designed this link popularity tool to help website owners find out who is linking to their site, but also to give a useful benchmarking report to quickly show where you stand in comparison to competitors and other major online players.
