See every HTTP hop from your starting URL to the final response—ideal for migrations, HTTPS cutovers, and technical SEO audits.

Check redirect chain
Enter a page URL to trace HTTP-level redirects (301, 302, 307, 308, and similar). Useful after HTTPS moves, domain changes, or cleaning up migration chains. Each hop shows the status returned for that request and where it points next. Meta refresh and JavaScript redirects are not detected here.
Redirect Checker helps you see every http hop from your starting url to the final response—ideal for migrations, https cutovers, and technical seo audits. It is commonly used by SEO teams, content marketers, web publishers for redirect checker, 301 redirect checker, redirect chain.
Why Redirect Chains Matter
When you change URLs, add HTTPS, or consolidate pages, servers answer with redirect status codes (such as 301, 302, 307, or 308) and a Location header. Search engines and browsers follow those hops. Long chains add latency, complicate crawling, and can weaken signals if temporary codes are used where permanent ones belong.
What This Tool Shows
- Each URL requested and the **HTTP status** returned for that step
- The **next URL** from the `Location` header when the response is a redirect
- **Elapsed time** per hop (rough network plus server handling)
- Plain-language labels for common redirect types
- Notes when the chain is **long** or when **temporary** redirects appear before the end
Limits (By Design)
- Only **HTTP and HTTPS** redirects sent with standard status codes are traced (for example 301, 302, 303, 307, 308, and 300 when a `Location` is present).
- **HTML meta refresh** and **JavaScript** `location` changes happen in the browser after HTML loads; this checker does not execute page scripts, so those paths are not shown here.
- Some hosts block automated requests; if a hop fails or times out, try again later or verify from your server logs.
