Redirect checker
Enter a URL to see every redirect hop and the final status code.
What this checks
Follows the URL one redirect at a time, up to 10 steps, and shows each status code and destination.
How to fix common problems
- Redirect straight to the final URL in one step.
- Use 301 or 308 for permanent moves.
- Fix loops and update internal links so they skip redirects.
Common questions
What is the difference between 301 and 302?
301 is a permanent redirect. 302 is temporary, so search engines may keep the old URL.
Are redirect chains bad?
Each extra hop slows the page and can waste crawl budget. Aim for one redirect at most.
