If yes, that can be a real problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When visitors see the &#8216;404 Page Not Found&#8217; error on your website, it signals to search engines that your site is not well-maintained, and ultimately, it negatively impacts your traffic and credibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the plugin is not sending you email alerts, you might not know about broken pages until it&#8217;s too late.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But don\u2019t worry!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In this guide, we will walk you through exactly how to troubleshoot and fix Broken Link Checker email alerts in WordPress, step-by-step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ready? Let\u2019s get started!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What Is a Broken Link and Why Does It Matter?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A broken link is any hyperlink on your website that no longer leads to the intended page. Instead, visitors land on an error page, usually a 404 Not Found, which signals that the content has been moved, deleted, or the URL was mistyped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These broken paths can sneak into your site for all kinds of reasons:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The linked page was removed or relocated.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The URL structure changed after a site redesign.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>External websites you referenced have gone offline.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While a few broken links might seem harmless, they have two serious downsides:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>They hurt your visitors\u2019 experience: <\/strong>They hurt your visitors&#8217; experience: Imagine clicking a link expecting valuable information, only to hit a dead end. It&#8217;s frustrating, isn&#8217;t it? Too many of these moments can push visitors to leave your site and never return.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>They damage your SEO: <\/strong>Search engines like Google use broken links as a signal of poor site maintenance. If they see too many, your rankings can slip and make it harder for potential visitors to find you.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>While fixing broken links protects your site\u2019s authority, actively building high-quality backlinks can further strengthen your site\u2019s visibility and ranking potential.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That\u2019s why the <a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/broken-link-checker\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><strong>Broken Link Checker plugin<\/strong><\/a> is so useful. It automatically scans your site for dead internal and external links, helping you catch and fix them before they impact your audience or search visibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But if the plugin isn\u2019t sending you email alerts, you\u2019re left checking manually, which defeats the purpose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now, let\u2019s figure out why that happens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3 Reasons Why Broken Link Checker Is Not Sending Emails<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When Broken Link Checker fails to send email alerts, the problem usually isn\u2019t the plugin itself. In most cases, it\u2019s tied to how your WordPress site handles outgoing emails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let\u2019s look at the most common causes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Reason #1: Incorrect Email Notification Settings<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Inside the plugin\u2019s settings, you can control when and where email alerts are sent. If the \u2018<strong>Send me email notifications about newly detected broken links<\/strong>\u2019 option is unchecked or set to send email alerts to an outdated email address, you won\u2019t receive anything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1172\" height=\"158\" src=\"https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/incorrect-email-notification-settings.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-189980\" srcset=\"https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/incorrect-email-notification-settings.webp 1172w, https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/incorrect-email-notification-settings-300x40.webp 300w, https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/incorrect-email-notification-settings-1024x138.webp 1024w, https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/incorrect-email-notification-settings-768x104.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1172px) 100vw, 1172px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Additionally, if you leave the recipient field blank, WordPress sends email alerts to a generic admin address you rarely check.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Reason #2: WordPress PHP mail() Limitations<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By default, WordPress uses the PHP mail() function to send emails, and many hosting providers limit or completely block this method to prevent spam abuse. That means your site is sending the emails, but they are getting blocked by the hosting provider&#8217;s server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Reason #3: Conflicting \u201cFrom\u201d Email Addresses<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If different plugins on your site use different sender addresses (for example, one sends email from abc@yourdomain.com and another from xyz@yourdomain.com), most email service providers will likely flag this inconsistency as suspicious. As a result, your alerts will either be flagged as spam or will disappear entirely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Understanding these causes makes the fix much easier, and in the following section, we\u2019ll tackle them one by one with a simple, step-by-step process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step-by-Step Process to Fix Broken Link Checker Not Sending Email<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 1: Review Broken Link Checker Email Notification Settings<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The first place to look is inside the plugin\u2019s own settings. If Broken Link Checker isn\u2019t configured to send alerts, or if it\u2019s sending them to the wrong address, they\u2019ll never reach your inbox.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here\u2019s how to check:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>In your WordPress dashboard, go to \u2018Link Checker \u2192 Local [old] \u2192 Settings\u2019.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In the General tab, find the \u2018E-mail notifications\u2019 option.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Make sure \u2018Send me e-mail notifications about newly detected broken links\u2019 is checked. This is the setting that alerts you as soon as a broken link is found.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Optionally, you can also check \u2018Send authors e-mail notifications about broken links in their posts\u2019 if you want post authors to be notified directly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Look at the Notification e-mail address field:\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>If it\u2019s blank, WordPress will default to the site admin email, which might not be the address you actively use.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enter the email address where you actually want to receive alerts.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Scroll down and click \u2018Save Changes\u2019 before moving on.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1508\" height=\"724\" src=\"https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/broken-link-checker-email-notification.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-189982\" srcset=\"https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/broken-link-checker-email-notification.webp 1508w, https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/broken-link-checker-email-notification-300x144.webp 300w, https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/broken-link-checker-email-notification-1024x492.webp 1024w, https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/broken-link-checker-email-notification-768x369.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1508px) 100vw, 1508px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By updating these settings, the plugin knows exactly where to send notifications, but if they\u2019re still not arriving, the issue could be elsewhere. That\u2019s what we will cover in the next step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 2: Enable All Required Post Types for Link Scanning<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even if email alerts are enabled, Broken Link Checker can only report broken links that it actually scans. If some content types are excluded from its checks, you\u2019ll miss alerts for those areas of your site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here\u2019s how to make sure all relevant content is being monitored:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>In your WordPress dashboard, go to \u2018Link Checker \u2192 Local [old] \u2192 Settings \u2192 Look For Links In\u2019 tab.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1170\" height=\"358\" src=\"https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/look-for-links-tab.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-189983\" srcset=\"https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/look-for-links-tab.webp 1170w, https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/look-for-links-tab-300x92.webp 300w, https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/look-for-links-tab-1024x313.webp 1024w, https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/look-for-links-tab-768x235.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1170px) 100vw, 1170px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"2\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>You\u2019ll see a list of post types the plugin can scan, such as Posts, Pages, and any custom post types your site uses.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Check the boxes next to the content types you want included in link scans.\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>For most sites, Posts and Pages should definitely be enabled.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you have custom post types for portfolios, products, or events, enable those too.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1160\" height=\"298\" src=\"https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/custom-post-types.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-189984\" srcset=\"https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/custom-post-types.webp 1160w, https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/custom-post-types-300x77.webp 300w, https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/custom-post-types-1024x263.webp 1024w, https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/custom-post-types-768x197.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1160px) 100vw, 1160px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"4\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Avoid selecting system or plugin-generated post types that aren\u2019t publicly visible; this just slows down scans without adding value.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Scroll down and click \u2018Save Changes\u2019.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By making sure the plugin scans the right post types, you increase the chances of catching every broken link and receiving an email alert about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 3: Turn On the Hourly Broken Link Monitor<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If Broken Link Checker isn\u2019t running scans regularly, it can\u2019t send timely email alerts. The plugin includes a Link Monitor feature that automatically checks your site on a set schedule \u2014 but sometimes this is turned off by default.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To activate it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Go to the \u2018Advanced\u2019 tab under \u2018Settings\u2019 in your WordPress dashboard.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Scroll down until you find the \u2018Link Monitor\u2019 section.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Check the box next to \u2018Run hourly in the background.\u2019 This tells the plugin to keep scanning for broken links automatically, even when you\u2019re not logged in.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1192\" height=\"352\" src=\"https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/link-monitor-section.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-189985\" srcset=\"https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/link-monitor-section.webp 1192w, https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/link-monitor-section-300x89.webp 300w, https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/link-monitor-section-1024x302.webp 1024w, https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/link-monitor-section-768x227.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1192px) 100vw, 1192px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"4\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Click \u2018Save Changes.\u2019<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With hourly monitoring enabled, the plugin can quickly detect new broken links and send you alerts right away, instead of waiting for a manual scan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your alerts still don\u2019t arrive after this, the problem is likely related to how WordPress sends emails. That\u2019s exactly what we\u2019ll fix in the next step by switching to a more reliable delivery method.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 4: Install and Configure Post SMTP for Reliable Email Delivery<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the biggest reasons Broken Link Checker alerts don\u2019t reach your inbox is that WordPress uses PHP\u2019s built-in mail() function, which is one of the biggest reasons behind the <a href=\"https:\/\/postmansmtp.com\/wordpress-not-sending-emails\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>WordPress not sending emails issue<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fortunately, you can replace it with SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) using the <a href=\"https:\/\/postmansmtp.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Post SMTP plugin<\/strong><\/a>.

This greatly improves deliverability and keeps your alerts out of the spam folder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 5: Force a Consistent \u201cFrom Email Address\u201d Across All Plugins<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As we have discussed earlier in the article, even with SMTP in place, your alerts can still get flagged if different plugins on your site send emails from different addresses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The solution is to lock your site into using one verified sender address for every outgoing email. Here\u2019s how to do it with Post SMTP:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>In your WordPress dashboard, go to Post SMTP \u2192 Settings.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click the Message tab.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In the Email Address field, enter the same domain-based email you used in Step 4 (e.g., example@yourdomain.com).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Scroll down and check \u2018Prevent plugins and themes from changing this.\u2019<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click Save Changes.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1271\" height=\"596\" src=\"https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/prevent-plugins-and-themes.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-189991\" srcset=\"https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/prevent-plugins-and-themes.webp 1271w, https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/prevent-plugins-and-themes-300x141.webp 300w, https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/prevent-plugins-and-themes-1024x480.webp 1024w, https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/prevent-plugins-and-themes-768x360.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1271px) 100vw, 1271px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From now on, every plugin on your site will send emails from the same trusted address, which makes it far more likely they land in your inbox.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Check Your Spam Score and Improve Deliverability (Optional)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019ve followed the steps so far, the Broken Link Checker emails should already be arriving. But if you want to maximize deliverability, it\u2019s worth testing your spam score. Email providers use the spam score to determine whether messages will appear in your inbox, spam folder, or elsewhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fortunately, Post SMTP comes with a built-in <a href=\"https:\/\/postmansmtp.com\/domain-health-checker\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Spam Score Checker<\/strong><\/a> that makes this quick and easy:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>In your Post SMTP dashboard, click \u2018Spam Score Checker\u2019 under the Troubleshooting section.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>On the subsequent page, click \u2018Copy email address to clipboard.\u2019<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Send a test email from your email domain to that address.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Go back to the Spam Score tool and click Confirm Email Sent.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Wait a few moments to see your results.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1542\" height=\"740\" src=\"https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/spam-score-checker.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-189992\" srcset=\"https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/spam-score-checker.webp 1542w, https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/spam-score-checker-300x144.webp 300w, https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/spam-score-checker-1024x491.webp 1024w, https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/spam-score-checker-768x369.webp 768w, https:\/\/postmansmtp-live.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/spam-score-checker-1536x737.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1542px) 100vw, 1542px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your score is low, here\u2019s how to improve it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Set up <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/postmansmtp.com\/dmarc-spf-dkim\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records<\/strong><\/a> in your domain\u2019s DNS settings \u2014 these help prove your emails are genuine.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Use a professional, domain-based email address<\/strong> (e.g., examlpe@yourdomain.com instead of Gmail or Yahoo).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Avoid spam trigger words<\/strong> like \u201cFREE!!!\u201d or \u201cAct Now\u201d in your subject lines.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Check if your domain is blacklisted<\/strong> using a tool like MXToolbox.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Send at a steady pace<\/strong> \u2014 don\u2019t blast too many emails in a short time, especially from a new domain.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Improving your spam score gives your Broken Link Checker alerts the best possible chance of landing exactly where they should: in your inbox.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Get Post SMTP Now and Fix Broken Link Checker Not Sending Email<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When Broken Link Checker stops sending emails, it\u2019s usually caused by WordPress&#8217; default mail function and not the plugin itself.
