URL Redirect Checker - Additional Information

What Is the URL Redirect Checker?

The URL redirect checker traces every HTTP redirect hop a URL goes through before reaching its final destination. It shows the status code (301, 302, etc.) and response time for each hop, helping you diagnose redirect chains, detect loops, and verify canonical URLs.

How to Use the URL Redirect Checker

  1. Enter the URL you want to check in the input field.
  2. Click Check Redirects to start tracing the redirect chain.
  3. Review each hop: URL, HTTP status code, and response time.
  4. Use the copy button on any hop to copy that URL to the clipboard.

Why Use the URL Redirect Checker?

  • SEO: Verify that redirect chains are short and lead to the correct canonical URL.
  • Debugging: Identify unexpected redirects or redirect loops.
  • Migration: Confirm old URLs redirect correctly to new destinations.
  • Performance: Detect long redirect chains that slow down page load times.
