What this redirect checker checks
- Every redirect hop and its HTTP status
- The exact final destination URL
- Redirect chains that add unnecessary delay
- Unexpected destinations before you open a link
How to read the result
A direct 200 response or a single permanent redirect is usually the cleanest setup. Long chains slow visitors and crawlers, while temporary redirects can send unclear signals when a move is actually permanent.
How to use it
- Enter the complete public HTTPS URL you want to inspect.
- Select the check button and wait for the live response.
- Review the result and correct any issue at the website or hosting provider.
- Run the checker again to confirm the public response changed.
Common questions
What is a redirect chain?
A redirect chain occurs when one URL redirects to another URL that redirects again. Each extra hop adds another network request.
Which redirect code should I use?
Use 301 or 308 for a permanent move. Use 302 or 307 when the change is genuinely temporary.
Can this check private URLs?
No. For safety, the checker accepts only public HTTPS destinations and blocks local or private network addresses.
