Blog tip of today is to find broken links and repair them or delete them if needed. Google crawls your blog either everyday or every week once depends on how you setup your sitemap if you have one at all. I check google webmaster almost twice or three times a week for broken links , page rank and many other tools they have been offered with WT.

My suggestion is if you haven’t done yet, open an account with google webmasters tools submit your blog, submit your sitemap and wait for day or two.

Sitemap  helps google to crawl your blog faster.

If you do not have sitemap my suggestion is to download this plugin: Google Sitemap Generator for Wordpress

To quick check for broken links go to:  http://validator.w3.org/checklink this site will give you information on broken links and many other information.

Why  broken links are important to be fixed?

You go to google and search for something, then you click on link you found interesting and you get 404 page! or page does not exist even though you found it with google search. You do not want this for your visitors to see! Its big  internet turn off.
