Affiliate Link Checker

Scan a website or YouTube channel for supported monetized links and review confirmed broken destinations grouped by page or video.

Affiliate links need maintenance

Product pages move, programs change, redirects expire, and tracked links can start sending readers nowhere useful. A regular check helps catch those problems before high-intent clicks are wasted.

What the scan checks

Affiliate Link Gremlin discovers website pages or public YouTube uploads, extracts supported monetized links, follows the destination, and flags confirmed broken responses. Coverage includes Awin, Impact, Amazon patterns, tracked sponsor or referral links, and same-site redirects that land on supported destinations.

Use the result as a fix list

Results are grouped by page or video, so you can update the exact content item that contains the broken link. After editing, rerun the scan to confirm the supported links are clean.

Coverage stays high-confidence

The scan does not pretend to check every affiliate network. Unsupported links are left alone instead of being marked broken. For current coverage details, see the supported networks.

FAQ

Does Affiliate Link Gremlin check every affiliate network?

No. It checks supported monetized link patterns and leaves unsupported networks alone instead of guessing.

Can it check both websites and YouTube channels?

Yes. Paste a website URL or a public YouTube channel URL. Website scans check discovered pages, and YouTube scans check public uploads and Shorts where description links are available.

Will the result show where to fix each link?

Yes. Confirmed broken links are grouped by the page or video where the link appears.
