Proposal for GSA URL Testing Tool
I think that this would be great to have. If you check its use ✅ within a project, the SER shifts the burden of re-verification to the module and relies on saved settings for that project. So for that project, and all checked projects, SER does no re-verifying, ever. I guess this program will have to update links two of SER's project lists, Verified and Failed_Re-Verification, as well as update last-link-check date info in SER-associated project files as well. And, I guess it needs its own per-project supplemental Reverify setting file.
This could work with both SER and other SEO programs, as well as be fed lists or work with an API for greatest use-instance!
This could be lightweight because it's relatively simple.
The utility could be written for SER so we can have:
Re-verify URLs on Verified URLs list (or on templates for popular SEO programs, or user-defined)
Re-check URLs on Failed-ReVerification URLs list
Timetables can be set on a per-project basis.
Different response codes can yield different actions.
Certain backlinks could be prioritized to test first based on many criteria.
Customizable timeouts for different link types, country codes, etc.
Prioritize or omit based on date range, link type, URL mask, country
Set very schedule for re-verify independent of check failed-re-verification scheduling.
Set up a third list called failed_reverification_X_timeframe for links that have remained dead for X time.
That can be set for a global so that all project only check their really old links very infrequently, and there are filters there as well
