We’d like to introduce you our smart advisory module that we implemented recently. Some of you may have already seen that, but we think that it’s worth a separate post.
Due our ongoing process of improving LinkAider in order to make it the best Swiss knife for webmasters we focus on providing the most convenient access to our reports. Some users are already happy using our smart filters to navigate through report data. However it is very easy to miss some crucial points to an unprofessional eye.
LinkAider’s advisory module tries to detect and report some critical issues on your site:
- Huge amount of broken links.
Having a couple of broken links is OK, so we tend to ignore that. Moreover, we don’t like to bug you every time we find a broken link. Plus you can access that report via web interface. However, having huge amount of broken links may seriously harm your site’s reputation. If you got that message from us – that means that things are really bad. Go and fix your site immediately. - Possible spam
If you have a page with too many links to some particular host (more than your site’s average) we’d suggest you to check if someone hasn’t spammed your site (is there a lot of spam in comments or worse, if you have your site hacked). - Server errors/hosting problems
These are serious problems. That means that your server is miss-configured and you may loose your visitors/customers. Moreover, if we find such errors in the front end (usually people don’t give LinkAider tasks to crawl their backends) – you should check if everything is working on the back side. - Huge pages
You know how annoying it feels to wait while a page loads? Keep in mind that some of your site’s users are overseas and are using cheap and slow internet connection. This alert is more of advisory type, so if you have a really huge page and you believe that your users are patient and dedicated ignore it.
And here is a screenshot of sample report that you may see online
Moreover, these reports are sent to you via email when crawling task is finished. Hope you’ll enjoy this feature. And if you are not a user yet, subscribe now! It’s free! :)
