Finding outbound links FROM my site.

[Jasp]

After much googling I've been unable to find an answer to how I find out what external pages my sites link to.

My sites have mostly user generated content and I cannot follow it all so I'd like to use a service that can tell me what external sites my pages point to.

Anyone know of a service that could tell me this?

Live's linkfromdomain is useless by the way. It only shows 1 link.

Try running a dead link checking program (better yet, run more than one) and see what it reports for outbound links.

The standard software here is going to be Xenu Link Sleuth.

I need a web service really.

W3C's Link Checker sorta does the job.

Well if you can't use software then you could write a bot to traverse your site and save to a DB the header status for all outbound links it finds. Something like that would only take a few hours to code. Doing exactly what you need to do with the data would probably add on a few hours more.

I'd put it up on your favorite freelance site, it's not a difficult job.
