How much do broken links actually hurt SEO?
Individual broken links rarely cause direct ranking drops, but they signal site neglect and waste crawl budget. Sites with hundreds of 404s often have correlated issues: outdated content, abandoned sections, poor maintenance. More importantly, broken links destroy user experience: users hit a dead end and bounce, which feeds back into engagement metrics Google tracks. Fixing broken links is low-effort, high-trust SEO maintenance every site should do quarterly.
Should I fix or remove broken external links?
Decide per case. If a broken external link points to content you cannot replace, remove the link or unlink the anchor. If the resource moved, update to the new URL. Avoid leaving 404 outbound links because they harm UX and erode authority signals. For inbound broken links from other sites pointing to your old URLs, set up 301 redirects to the closest equivalent page; this recovers lost link equity that would otherwise vanish.
What status codes count as broken in SEO terms?
4xx codes (especially 404 Not Found and 410 Gone) are clearly broken. 5xx server errors indicate broken too, often due to server issues that need infrastructure fixing. 3xx redirects are not broken but excessive redirect chains slow crawling. 200 OK pages with empty or thin content may also count as soft 404s that Google deindexes. The bulk checker flags all error codes plus suspicious soft 404 patterns where pages return 200 but contain only error messages.
How often should I run a broken link audit?
Monthly for active sites, quarterly minimum for static sites. After major changes (CMS migration, URL restructure, large content prune) run an audit immediately. Tools that crawl your full site catch broken internal links; external link checkers verify outbound URLs that may have died on third-party sites. Pair the audit with Search Console coverage reports to find broken URLs Google has discovered but you missed. Consistency beats one-off cleanups.
Should I redirect 404s to my homepage?
No. Mass-redirecting 404s to the homepage is treated as soft 404 and provides no SEO benefit; Google ignores those redirects. Better practice: redirect to the closest relevant page (a deleted product to its category, an old blog post to a related current article). If no relevant target exists, let the URL return 404 or 410. A clean 410 Gone signal actually helps Google deindex the URL faster than a 404.
Do nofollow links to broken URLs still hurt me?
Less than dofollow broken links, but yes from a UX standpoint. Users do not see the nofollow attribute; they just see a broken link and lose trust. Nofollow status only affects how search engines weight the link for ranking purposes. From a maintenance perspective, fix all broken outbound links regardless of nofollow status. The few seconds saved by ignoring nofollow links are not worth the user trust cost when someone clicks and hits a dead end.
