How to use the Redirect Checker

Trace every hop in a redirect chain with status codes and timing.

  1. Enter the URL to test

    Paste any URL — works for 301, 302, 307, 308, meta refresh, and JS redirects.

  2. Inspect every hop

    See each intermediate URL, its status code, and the time to the final destination.

  3. Fix unnecessary hops

    Replace redirect chains with direct 301s to save crawl budget and load time.

Redirect Checker — Frequently Asked Questions

What types of redirects does it detect?
301, 302, 307, 308, meta-refresh, and JavaScript redirects — including the full chain to the final URL.
Why does redirect chain length matter for SEO?
Each hop slows page load and dilutes link equity. Google recommends a single redirect — anything past 2 hops is a fix-it signal.
Does it follow cross-domain redirects?
Yes. The checker traces the full hop sequence even across domains.
