How Searchlark checks every link before an article goes live

Language models are good at writing and bad at remembering exact web addresses. Ask one to "link to a source" and it will often produce a URL that looks right and leads nowhere. On a business blog, a broken or invented link costs trust with readers and with search engines.

What Searchlark does instead

Every draft goes through a link check before anyone sees it:

• Internal links are kept only when they point to a page we actually found on your site while reading it. Small differences like www. or a trailing slash are matched to the real page address.
• External links are kept only when they point to a source the writer actually read for this article.
• Everything else becomes plain text. The words stay; the invented link goes.

The editor shows a list of every link that was removed and why, so you can add a real one back if you want.

Fact checks work the same way

A separate review pass looks for unsupported numbers, invented quotes and claims that need an expert. Anything flagged as high risk waits for a human, even if your site publishes on autopilot.
