Have you ever clicked a link and landed somewhere unexpected? That’s the result of a redirect — and not all redirects are safe or SEO-friendly. With our free redirect checker tool, you can instantly trace the final destination of any URL and see its HTTP status code.

What is a Redirect?

A redirect automatically takes you from one URL to another. Website owners use them for domain changes, link tracking, affiliate links, and campaign routing. Common redirect types include 301 (permanent) and 302 (temporary).

Why Use a Redirect Checker?

Our redirect checker tool helps you:

Identify where shortened or masked URLs actually lead
Verify if a page is using a 301 or 302 redirect
Detect broken links (404 errors)
Improve SEO by avoiding redirect chains

How It Works

Just paste any URL into the tool and click “Check Redirect.” We’ll show you:

The final destination URL
The HTTP status code

It’s fast, private, and doesn’t log any data. Perfect for marketers, bloggers, SEOs, and anyone who shares or audits links.

Why Redirects Matter for SEO

Too many redirects slow down your site and confuse search engines. A proper 301 redirect preserves link equity, while 302s might not. By checking your redirects, you ensure clean link paths and better user experience.
