Redirect Chain Checker

Enter a URL and trace its full redirect chain — every hop, status code, and final destination displayed step by step.

Note: Browser security (CORS) prevents following cross-origin redirects directly. This tool checks the final destination using Cloudflare DNS and shows the redirect chain as reported by the server. For a full server-side trace, use curl -IL <url> in your terminal.

About Redirect Checker

Each redirect hop adds latency (a round-trip per hop). A redirect chain of 3+ hops degrades performance and dilutes PageRank. 301 (permanent) passes link equity; 302 (temporary) does not. Avoid redirect loops. Common patterns: HTTP → HTTPS, www → non-www, trailing slash normalization. Aim for a maximum of one redirect per URL.
