Guide and interpretation

How to use this check

Enter a public URL to inspect up to a small number of redirects without crawling the rest of the site.

Every Location header is resolved against the previous URL and revalidated before the next request.

How to interpret the result

One clean HTTPS redirect can be fine. Chains, loops and unexpected host changes can waste crawl budget or break users.

Example

http://example.com -> https://example.com -> 200 is a common healthy chain.

Common issues and next steps

Legacy marketing redirects often stack through old domains and add latency before the final page.

Collapse redirects at the edge or origin so users and crawlers reach the canonical URL quickly.

Methodology and limits

The free checker does not crawl internal links or run a full SEO migration audit.

FAQ

How many redirects are followed?

The free check follows a small capped chain to prevent abuse and loops.

Are redirect targets saved?

No. The target stays in the transient probe response and is not sent to analytics.
