Let's look into the broken links issue before it becomes too big to mange.
You should verify your site regularly for broken links especially for internal links on your site because it may happen that while your audience is surfing on your site clicking on a link they finding out the page that they requested no longer exist which is so frustrating so you need to verify your site for broken links. Many people are not sure how to do that in that case you can simply click on every link on your site to make sure it is working correctly it may be way too tedious a job for you but will surely provide you results.
Firefox can provide you great help into finding broken links because it has extension called Link Evaluator which is helpful for checking all of the links on each page of your site as a single task you have to browse each and every page of your site but the good part is that it will check all of the links on each page for you and saving you from having to click each one manually.
One more option is to opt for spidering tool which will verify the links on your entire site with just one request and for that you can do a web search for and you will be overwhelmed with the number of results and then you need to pick one that fits your budget and sounds the best to you.
Now let’s also look for those links which are pointing towards your website from other websites they are known as incoming links and they are essential for the search engine ranking for your site so you want to treat all incoming links with proper care and for that you should do some search on the internet to see what sites have pages which are indexed with links pointing to your site and for that just do as search for your site in the front of your domain name to check for links going to a specific page just add the rest of the address to the link request.
You should go through each of these outcomes and verify their page for your link and just because it is in indexed that does not mean your link is still active but if you find your link missing contact the site owner and nicely request a link to your site, they should be open to this as they used to have one but remember just because you have all your links working again that does not mean that one of them will not break tomorrow or day after tomorrow so you should incorporate this into your monthly or at least quarterly to-do list just to be sure.
