Broken link checker for your link in bio

How it checks each link

Each link is opened once, the way a visitor's phone would, and its answer is sorted:

• Works: the page answered normally.
• Redirects: it works, but now lands on a different site. Common after a rebrand or when a shop moves platforms. Link to the new address so nobody waits on the hop.
• Broken: page not found, removed, or a server error.
• Down: the site did not answer within 6 seconds, or its domain no longer exists.
• Not checked: the site turns automated visits away (Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook, X and TikTok all do). Tap these yourself.

Only the response is read, never the page's content, and nothing is stored.

Why links in bio break

Bio pages collect links over years: a launch from 2023, a sale that ended, a course that moved, a service that shut down. Bento, Read.cv, Polywork and Koji all closed, taking every link to them with it. The link in bio audit flags links to those services by name.

Check your page after every launch and every time you change platforms, and fix anything red first. A dead link is a visitor who tapped and left.

Keep it from happening again

Two habits keep a bio page clean. Put a date on anything temporary: on makerhandle, scheduled links go live and expire on their own, so last month's sale never lingers. And keep the page short; the grader warns past 15 links, because nobody scrolls that far on a phone.
