I've recently discovered http://wordpress.org/plugins/redirection/ to be helpful. It doesnt monitor your 404's but it does find all 301/302's/404's/500's you have - as they come in.
If you change a URL of a page, it will track those as well.

A different tool, one not specifically built for SEO purposes but which can solve your problem is the Xenu Link Sleuth. I like screaming frog much better, it's just the free version is limited, whereas Xenu is free. Xenu Link Sleuth
Another free option you can try is the IIS Toolkit, which you can install in Windows - http://www.microsoft.com/web/seo
Good luck,
Mark

Redirect for Soft 404 or 404?
I have a client site that displays properties from the MLS. Once these properties sell they're removed from the MLS and they stop showing up on her site. This would result in a 404 error, but right now any property that's not being found is being 301 redirected back to the property page. I see how this makes sense for a user, but Google is saying there's an increase in Soft 404 errors and I've read that this could negatively affect organic traffic. Should I keep the redirect for removed properties or should I have it serve a 404 with a message that the house you're looking for may have sold and link to the property page? Is it better to have Soft 404 errors or 404 errors?

Can you use Screaming Frog to find all instances of relative or absolute linking?
My client wants to pull every instance of an absolute URL on their site so that they can update them for an upcoming migration to HTTPS (the majority of the site uses relative linking). Is there a way to use the extraction tool in Screaming Frog to crawl one page at a time and extract every occurrence of _href="http://" _? I have gone back and forth between using an x-path extractor as well as a regex and have had no luck with either. Ex. X-path: //*[starts-with(@href, “http://”)][1] Ex. Regex: href=\”//

64,476 Links from a PR1 Site - Should I Disavow???
We recently discovered in Google Webmaster Tools that a Chinese website with a page rank of 1 has 64,476 links to various pages of our website which is about 120,000 pages in size. Their site covers the same topic as our site - technical information about plastics. My question is, should I let things take its natural course or would it be better to 'block' their site using Google Disavow?

Too many links? Do links to named anchors count (ie page#nameanchor)?
Hi, I have an internal search results page that contains approx 200 links in total. This links to approx 50 pages. Each result listing contains a link to the page in the format /page.html and also has 3 more links (for each listing) to named anchors within the page. eg /page.html#section1, /page.html#section2, /page.html#section3 etc. Should i remove the named anchors to keep my links per page under the Seomoz suggested max of 100? Will it impact crawl-ability or link juice being passed? Thanks in advance for your response.

IP Indexing of MySQL with 80,000 links , help please
Hi There, We were just using one server for both Mysql & httpd server. The server's IP address was 207.36.90.69. Time to time the server couldn't handle the requests so we decided to get new servers in order to handle them. When i talk to my system engineer and software developer about this, they've suggested clustering our site http://goo.gl/ITNqs. So we moved our site http://goo.gl/ITNqs to the server (216.87.165.21) but we kept the old machine 207.36.90.69 to use as MySQL server and deleted all HTTP related files last year. Somehow google indexed 80K unnatural links from this old IP 207.36.90.69. We have received an unnatural links warning back in august and got a link related penalty on sept 28th. Our webmaster tools are showing that we have 80,000 link pointing to our site from the old server with only mysql on it. Can someone help us understand how google crawler indexed an IP with no http related files on it for almost a year, 10 months to be exact. Thank you

Rel="no follow" for All Links on a Site that Charges for Advertising
If I run a site that charges other companies for listing their products, running banner advertisements, white paper downloads, etc. does it make sense to "no follow" all of their links on my site? For example: they receive a profile page, product pages and are allowed to post press releases. Should all of their links on these pages be "no follow"? It seems like a gray area to me because the explicit advertisements will definitely be "no followed" and they are not buying links, but buying exposure. However, I still don't know the common practice for links from other parts of their "package". Thanks

Do sites really need a 404 page?
We have people posting broken links to our site is this looking us link juice as they link to 404 pages. We could redirect to the homepage or just render the home page content, in both cases we can still display a clear page not found message. Is this legal (white hat).

How much effect does number of outbound links have on link juice?
I am interested in your thoughts on the effect of number of outbound links (obls) on link juice passed? ie If a page linking to you has a high number of obls, how do you compute the effect of these obls and relative negative effect on linkjuice. In the event that there are three sites on which you have been offered the opportunity of a link Site A PA 30 DA50 Obls on page 10 Site B PA 40 DA50 Obls on page 15 Site C PA 50 DA50 Obls on page 20 How would you appraise each of these prospective page links (ignoring anchor text, relevancy, etc which will be constant) Is there a rule of thumb on how to compare the linkjuice passed from a site relative to its PA and the number of obls? Is it as simple as page with 10 obls passes 10x juice of page with 100 obls?
