Inspect every link on the page: broken links, redirects, nofollow, anchor text and more, highlighted right where they sit. Hasten LinkLens is an SEO link checker that works right on the page you're viewing. Click the icon and every link is checked and coloured where it sits: green for working, orange for redirects, red for broken. No crawl to set up, nothing to export first. Hover any link to see what's behind it. Built for SEOs, content editors, developers and anyone who publishes web pages. WHAT'S NEW IN 2.0 • An Issues tab that tells you what to fix first, sorted into High, Medium and Low • Filters for internal/external, dofollow/nofollow/sponsored/UGC, and where each link sits on the page • Colour the page by status, by follow, or by internal/external • Alt+click any link for full details, then copy a ready-to-paste diagnostic • A better CSV export, a keyboard shortcut and right-click checks • Light, dark or system theme • Works with modern sites: links that load after the scan are checked too SEE EVERY LINK AT A GLANCE • Working, redirected, broken, unable to verify and not checked, each with its own colour • Image and icon links get an outline instead of a fill, so nothing is covered up • Hover any link for its status, destination, final URL, type, location and follow status • Click a link in the panel to jump straight to it on the page FIND WHAT TO FIX FIRST The Issues tab groups problems by priority, with a one-line reason and a fix for each: • High: broken links, redirect loops, links to localhost or staging sites • Medium: redirect chains, insecure http:// links, internal nofollow, links with no anchor text, image links without alt text, #section links that point nowhere • Low: single redirects, generic anchor text like "click here", empty links Judgement calls such as generic anchors and internal nofollow are marked "Review", not "wrong". SEO DETAIL FOR EVERY LINK • Internal vs external, with subdomains recognised as part of your site • Dofollow, nofollow, sponsored and UGC, counted and filterable • Link location: main content, navigation, header, sidebar or footer • A details view with every redirect step, how often the URL is linked on the page, where it opens, file type (PDF, Word and more), response time and the link's HTML HONEST RESULTS Many sites block automated checks. LinkLens reports those as "Unable to verify", not "broken", so you don't waste time on links that work fine. Rate limits, bot checks and sites that refuse checks (LinkedIn, for example) are each explained. SHARE AND EXPORT • Copy a ready-to-paste diagnostic for a developer ticket • Copy all broken URLs, or any other group, in one click • Export to CSV: all links, only links with issues, or just your filtered view. Includes the source page, priority, issues, status, redirect steps, location and follow status WORKS THE WAY YOU DO • Keyboard shortcut: Alt+Shift+L • Right-click a link to check just that one, or select part of a page and check only those links • The panel stays open on its tab while you work in other tabs, and closes when you move to a different page • Links that load after the scan (lazy-loaded sections, infinite scroll, single-page apps) are checked automatically • Drag the panel anywhere and it remembers where you put it • Checks up to 2,000 links per page SETTINGS • Exact redirect codes: see 301 vs 302, every step of a redirect chain, redirect loops, and the real reason a request failed. This needs one extra permission, which is only requested if you turn it on • Skip domains you don't need checked, such as social networks • Check your own staging or members-only sites using your cookies for those sites • Scan history: compare with your last scan ("2 new broken links, 1 fixed"). Off by default • Theme: System, Light or Dark PRIVACY • Nothing runs until you click the icon, press the shortcut or use the right-click menu • Results stay in memory and are cleared when you close the panel, leave the page or close the tab • Settings and the optional history are stored on your device only and never synced • No URL you check is ever sent to GrowthHasten or anyone else. Each link is requested directly from your browser, and without your cookies unless you choose otherwise WANT YOUR WHOLE SITE CHECKED? LinkLens checks one page at a time. To audit every page on your site, start a free website audit at GrowthHasten, right from the panel. Learn more: https://growthhasten.com/tools/hasten-linklens
