Trace 301, 302, 307, and 308 redirects for any public URL, detect redirect loops, and confirm the final destination.
Trace a redirect chain
Why redirect checking matters
Redirects affect SEO, page speed, analytics, user experience, and migration quality. A single clean redirect is usually fine, but long chains, loops, mixed HTTP and HTTPS hops, or temporary redirects in the wrong place can waste crawl budget and slow users down. This Redirect Checker shows each hop so you can see exactly where a URL ends up.
Common redirect checker use cases
Use this tool after changing .htaccess rules, moving a website, switching from www to non-www, forcing HTTPS, renaming pages, launching a new domain, or cleaning up old campaign links. It is especially helpful when an SEO report flags internal redirects, redirect loops, canonical confusion, or 404 URLs that should have been mapped to a final destination.
This redirect checker helps confirm whether old URLs, http-to-https changes, campaign links, and moved pages arrive at the right final destination. Use it before deleting pages or changing website addresses.
What to check next
After confirming the redirect chain, update internal links so they point directly to the final URL. Then check the canonical tag, HTTP headers, sitemap entry, and page speed. A strong redirect setup should be simple, permanent where appropriate, and consistent across HTTP, HTTPS, www, non-www, trailing slash, and old URL variations.
Common questions
Helpful answers about this tool
What does the Redirect Checker show?
It follows each address change from the starting link to the final page and identifies loops or unnecessary steps.
How many redirects should a page use?
A direct path is usually best. Remove unnecessary steps when one address can point straight to the final secure page.
