Checking for dead Amazon links on your site

Is anyone aware of any plugins, tools, or methods that allow you to scan your wordpress site for outbound Amazon links that are going to products that are no longer available?

I found this old plugin (no longer available) which has the functionality I'm looking for: https://wordpress.org/plugins/check-amazon-link/

I also found that GeniusLink has a subscription service with an Amazon dashboard that can give you these details, but I'm not interested in another subscription service.

I also thought about writing a web scraper for my sites and then parsing output of all amazon links. However, this seems like such a common problem that I assume anyone with a long-standing Amazon affiliate site has already come up with a solution.

Thanks!

There is a service that offers this by @jamie3000

You should take a second look at geni.us, they are great,

I am also wondering is there such a plugin ?

Thanks for your suggestion. I'm sure this is a good service, but I'm looking for something to check once every 3 months or so. In that case I don't need something that actively monitors.

Thanks for the suggestion. I was not really looking for a service that actively monitors links, but is there something else I'm missing why I might want to?

If the product is deleted from amazon, genius will automatically detect and redirect the user to a similar or matching product. Plus it's a handy way to get extra analytics. They are free until you get 10k clicks a month i think it is.

Hi, there's one option but it's pay.
