Stop link rot. Recover lost authority, clicks and conversions.
Broken links and redirect chains are silently draining your site’s performance — wasting link equity, reducing crawl efficiency and confusing visitors.
At EcoSEO we find every broken link, redirect loop and dead end using advanced crawling tools and link mapping data.
Our team then applies precise SEO friendly redirects to fix the flow, consolidate authority and keep users on track.
According to Ahrefs, 66% of websites have broken links that are wasting link equity and directly impacting rankings and user experience.
The result? A cleaner, faster and more efficient site architecture that recovers lost rankings, preserves user trust and maximises every bit of link equity you already have.


EcoSEO Broken Links & Redirect Chain Fix Solutions: What's Included
Redirect Chain Forensics
We trace multi-hop redirects and calculate link equity loss across each jump. Our team then consolidates or replaces inefficient routes with direct 301 redirects, optimising both crawl budget and user experience. The result? A faster, leaner link path that boosts page authority and organic visibility.
Backlink Equity Recovery
EcoSEO’s link forensics includes finding broken backlinks from external domains pointing to 404 pages. We recover that lost value by rebuilding or redirecting those URLs to relevant high performing pages — restoring link juice and referral traffic. You’re not just fixing broken links; you’re reclaiming the authority your brand already earned.
Content Replacement & Relevance Mapping
Instead of blindly redirecting pages we analyse keyword intent, content value and topical relevance. So users and crawlers land exactly where they should — without confusion or ranking drops. Our smart redirection strategy preserves both user experience and topical authority.
Implementation Support
We provide developer ready redirect maps, server rule scripts (Apache, Nginx, Cloudflare) and CMS based instructions for smooth implementation. Our QA testing ensures all fixes are deployed correctly and verified through crawl logs and Google Search Console checks. We don’t stop until every redirect is working perfectly.
Continuous Monitoring & Reporting
We include link-health monitoring in your SEO dashboard so broken links, redirect loops or crawl anomalies are detected in real time. You’ll receive monthly reports on new issues, fixed errors and recovered backlinks — so you have total visibility and control. This proactive approach keeps your site’s technical foundation clean and healthy long term.

FAQ — Broken Links & Redirect Chains
Are redirects bad for SEO?
Redirects are normal and useful when done correctly (301s for permanent moves). Problems appear with long chains, loops or temporary redirects used where permanent ones are needed. Those cause equity loss and crawl inefficiency.
Can you guarantee rankings will improve?
No reputable SEO can guarantee specific ranking positions. What we do guarantee is to stop the ongoing loss of link equity, repair high value links and improve crawlability — which gives your existing content a much better chance to rank.
Will fixing broken backlinks require contacting other sites?
Sometimes. For high value external links we’ll request a correction with the linking site; for others we’ll implement redirects or recreate content to capture referral value.
I want to sign up. Who do I contact?
That is great news. You can contact us by clicking on our Contact Us button. You can email us and we will get back to you ASAP.
What if a page was intentionally removed?
We’ll assess intent. If the content is permanently obsolete we’ll set the correct status (410 or 301 to an alternative). If it’s valuable we’ll recommend rebuilding it.
How do you decide which broken link to fix first?
We prioritise by traffic recovery potential, linking domain authority and user journey impact. A single link from an authoritative industry blog often beats dozens of low value 404s.
Do you handle JavaScript-based link issues and infinite-scroll traps?
Yes. Our crawls include JavaScript rendering to surface links that traditional crawlers miss.
Do you offer other technical SEO Services?
Yes we do. We provide various Technical SEO Services. This include Site Speed & Performance Optimisation, Site Architecture & Internal Linking, HTTPS & Website Security, Core Web Vitals Optimization, Crawlability & Indexation, Mobile Optimization, Canonicalization & Duplicate Content removal, Index Bloat & Crawl Budget Optimization, Broken links & Redirect Fixes and Structured Data & Schema Markup Services.
