3. After setting up the framework of the crawler run the crawler and see the results. “Dead links’ include any link belonging to the reported ‘broken’ category with a particular error code such as a 404 code.
4. It is recommended to click each of the broken links to check if they really won’t open. Sometimes it is that false alarms are issued.
5. Look for ways each link in the path is broken in your site from this path of links. It is also possible to use “find in page” search to search for links.

7. It may be useful to set up 301 redirects in case if useful content has just been moved between URLs so that more traffic goes to working pages.
