Redirect checker for 301, 302 and multi-hop URL chains
Redirects are useful when URLs move, but unnecessary chains can slow requests and make migrations harder to maintain. This checker follows public HTTP and HTTPS redirects and shows each status and destination in order.
For important SEO migrations, the preferred path is usually one clear redirect from the old canonical URL to the correct new canonical destination. Long chains, temporary redirects used permanently, loops and redirects back to HTTP are signals worth reviewing.
How to use it
- Enter the old or current URL you want to inspect.
- Review every redirect hop and HTTP status.
- Check whether the final destination is HTTPS and returns a successful status.
- Update redirect rules if the chain is longer or less direct than necessary.
