Redirect Checker

Follow the whole redirect chain of a URL and see each status code, location header and the final destination.

How it works

  • Browsers will not let a page read another site's redirect headers directly, so the trace runs through a free public header API.
  • Each hop shows its status code and where it points, in order, ending with the final response.
  • Chains longer than five hops are rare and usually a mistake — they slow crawlers down and dilute link equity.
