Comments and Reviews
Python installation for Windows?
This project is being reported as abandoned. Please, see https://github.com/wummel/linkchecker/issues/708
Looks like it's been moved to a new repository:
https://github.com/linkchecker/linkchecker
It should be good for small site,
My current website has 50k internal links and LinkChecker could'nt mangage to scan more than 15k during 10 hours,
Xenu's Link Sleuth scan my whole website in 50min,
Finaly LinkChecker has an average of 1000 links per hour, and Xenu 1000 links per minute :)
But LinkChecker data is more readable and usefull.
