    Hi everyone,

    I’ve just released a brand new link checker where you can see the content of the linked pages. Can you please give it a try and give me any feedback on this? Any upfront feedback is very welcome: what you like, what you don’t like, if you understand or don’t understand how it works…

    You can find it here: www.visuallinkchecker.com

    It’s fully responsive and I’ve tested it successfully with an iPhone 5 but didn’t have a chance to test it with any other device so if you have a chance to try it with another mobile device please let me know what device it is.

    Looking forward to reading from you!

    Hi,
    I think that idea is pretty good.
    Some things to consider:
    I see you are embedding each found link as an iframe. I would recommend you to exclude all external links, e.g. link to pinterest when I checked my site.
    Also one important note is that your solution with iframe wont work for sites denying that (the ones sending x-frame-options:deny header). You might need to use proxy to get around that.
    Other than that it might be useful for some people.

    Very interesting idea. I would suggest you to add a title and a meta description for your page, as well as create a sitemap.xml and submit it to google webmasters.

    It's an interesting concept, but it's a bit overkill for my liking.

    Quite cool and I am surprised, how fast results were displayed.

    I like the color scheme of the website, very clean design. Probably can work a bit on the logo to make it more memorable.

    Thank you all for your feedback!

    I don't want to exclude external links as I want the tool to allow to check both internal and external links however for external links with x-frame-option those simply can't be loaded within an iframe that's right. I've implemented a solution which now displays an information message with a clickable button to open the link in a new window in this case.

    Title and meta description have been added, what would be the benefit of creating a sitemap.xml (it's a small website and Google has already found it)?
