I was checking this url : http://zootwoot.com.

console error:

node:internal/url:552
  throw new ERR_INVALID_URL(input);
  ^

TypeError [ERR_INVALID_URL]: Invalid URL

It should return an error in the callback instead of throwing error and crashing nodejs process.

  linkCheck('http://zootwoot.com', (err, result) => {
    if (err) {
      console.log('Error: ', err);
      return;
    }

    if (result.status === 'alive') {
       console.log(true)
    } else if (result.status === 'dead') {
      console.log(false)
    }
  });
