The broken link report is accessible from the main menu Admin >> Reports >> Link Checker. The report is run weekly on Sunday and is available to all account privilege levels.
The report consists of the site name, URL, and server error code of the reported broken link. The URL is 'clickable' so you can verify that the link is actually broken. (Sometimes errors are reported in functioning links.)
The Link Checker Report is divided into three categories; these categories are based on the error code returned by the Link Checker:
Broken Links: URLs listed under this tab are most likely broken and need immediate attention.
Problem Links: URLs listed under this tab could be broken or the session timed out due to slow page loading or other reasons. This queue should be monitored periodically.
Link Returned Message: The Link Checker is reporting an abnormality with the URL, most likely not broken. This queue should be checked occasionally.
