linkrot
Last modified: Friday, December 13, 2002 

Internet slang for the condition where hypertext links lead nowhere because Web sites have removed Web pages or reorganized them. Also known as outdated links.

To prevent linkrot, Web sites can add redirects, which automatically take users to the correct URL, or, they can provide the new and correct url on the old page.
