MainWP Broken Links Checker is a WordPress plugin that lets you find broken links across all your child sites from a single dashboard, then edit, unlink, or dismiss them without logging in to each site. It delivers a healthier network, improved user experience and SEO through centralized link health monitoring and easy, one-place management.
Description
MainWP Broken Links Checker is a WordPress plugin extension for teams managing multiple child sites. It helps you locate broken links across your network from a single MainWP Dashboard, without logging into each site individually.

This centralized monitoring supports healthier site experiences and can contribute to better SEO and usability across your network.
