Malware is causing a great harm the brands online. Whenever you receive a link for some kind of payment or have to pay on a third party website, it is crucial to check the safety of the link or site.

HubSpot columnist Clifford Chi has shared three ways to help marketers check link and site safety.

Chi says, “To check if a link is safe, plug it into a link checker. Link checkers are free online tools that can analyze any link’s security issues (or lack thereof) and alert you if the link will direct you to a compromised website, malware, ransomware, or other safety risks. We’ve provided descriptions of the three best link checkers below.
