BomaLinkCheck

BomaLinkCheck finds broken links on websites. A Boma user chooses a start address. Boma checks that site once a day. The user can ask for another check once an hour.

It reads links in the HTML a site returns. It checks pages and files on the same domain. Links to other sites are not checked. It does not run JavaScript or sign in.

Boma follows robots.txt. It makes one request at a time per site and waits at least half a second between requests. Each crawl has a small link budget and stops after ten minutes.
