Free Redirect Checker

What the redirect checker shows you

Paste a URL and the checker traces the full redirect chain, hop by hop. For each step it shows the HTTP status code, whether the URL upgrades to HTTPS, the response time, and where it finally lands. A 301 or 308 is permanent, a 302 or 307 is temporary, so you can confirm a redirect does what you intended. Use it to check redirects after a domain migration, verify a single 301, or debug a chain that loops or stalls. To set up redirects, not just check them, see the redirect service.

Frequently Asked Questions

Paste the URL and the checker follows it to the end, showing each step along the way and the final URL it lands on. This is the quickest way to confirm where an old link, a shortened URL, or a forwarded domain actually sends visitors.

Paste the URL into the checker and read the status code at each step. A 301 means the redirect is permanent, which is what you want for a moved page or a domain migration. If you see a 302 or 307 where you expected a 301, the redirect is temporary and set up differently than intended.

Yes! The checker shows whether a URL is upgraded from HTTP to HTTPS and whether HSTS is set, so you can confirm visitors and crawlers always reach the secure version. This is a common gap after a migration, where the HTTPS redirect is missing or only half configured.
