Schedule regular checks for:
1. HTTP status: Confirm that both the linking page and destination page return a usable response.
2. Crawlability: Check whether robots directives, noindex rules, or technical changes prevent search engines from accessing the page.
3. Index visibility: Look for signs that the linking page remains available to search engines, while recognizing that index status can fluctuate. (29/41)

4. Link presence: Verify that the expected link still exists and points to the intended destination. 5. Redirect changes: Make sure the target has not moved through a long or broken redirect chain. 6. Content changes: Review whether the article still provides relevant context for the link. 7. Anchor changes: Record if the publisher edited the anchor text or surrounding sentence. (30/41)
