  • Shouldn't this be on Server Fault or Super User?

  • It's a request for software that runs on a Mac. It's on topic here.

What are you using to watch the stats on your website? Most stats packages that read the logs will give you a 404 report (eg. AWStats, Summary).

If you're looking for a program to run on your Mac to check that for you; Piltdown Link Checker, Integrity, WebLight or LinkByLink are all options.

If you want to track broken links, the best way to do it is checking the production/online site. I’ve used BrokenLinkCheck in the past. It’s free and it delivers. Your mileage may vary.

    An online service is a form of software. You might have a reason to prefer local software over software running on a remote machine, but "software" and "online service" are not mutually exclusive categories.
