6. Broken Link Checker

As a blogger or even static website that does not change, we often share web links. How to know if any of those links are broken much after we have written about it? We have usually two choice, go manually and check each link manually periodically or have some reader/clients tell you about it as they find it. However the best way is to install broken link checker plug-in, that does superb job for finding such links and show you location of it so either you can fix it, delete it or keep as it is (if it is still working).
