I've heard a few times that too many dead links on your website can negatively impact your site's SEO. So out of curiousity, I ran a plugin on my WordPress-based site that looks for bad links and I didn't do too bad. I had about 125 out of a total of over 2,000. And some of those were actually good when I checked them manually. In the six years I've been doing my show I've never checked any of my links which is why obviously, there were so many.

The plugin lets you edit or remove the links and continously scans your site and will even E-Mail you when new links go dead. For those on WordPress, you can check it out here.

This got me wondering, for those of you with show notes, do you keep up on your links and remove the dead ones?
