Subject: Quick heads-up: a broken link on cloudnative.dev
Hi Maya, I was reading your page at https://cloudnative.dev/best-tools and noticed one of the outbound links appears to be broken (it returns a 404). Thought you'd want to know so it doesn't hurt the reader experience. If it's helpful, I recently published something that covers the same ground and could serve as a replacement. Totally your call — either way, I wanted to flag the dead link. Thanks for the great resource, Alex

Questions about this tool
You find a dead (404) link on a relevant page, tell the site owner, and offer your own equivalent content as a replacement. It helps them fix their page and can earn you a link.
Because you lead with a genuine favor — flagging a problem — rather than an ask. Editors appreciate the heads-up, and a relevant replacement makes their fix effortless.
Scan resource pages and roundups in your niche for dead outbound links. Pages that curate lots of external links are the richest hunting grounds.
It must genuinely match the original resource's intent. If the dead link was a data page, offer data — not a sales page. Relevance is everything.
