How to find the location of broken links (on your website and other sites)

To track locations of broken links:

  1. Go to the settings page of any analytics tool (advertising tools do not have this option)
  2. In the “Standard events” section find a button that says “Optional modifications”
  3. Enable and save options.

From this moment, when someone visits a page that does not exist, WP Full Picture will add extra parameters to that address.

This parameter contains the location of the broken link, which can be your own website or a different one.

You will be able to view broken links in your Google Analytics or any other tracking tool’s dashboard. Simply search for pages that contain the parameter “broken_link_location“.
