Tool workspace

Use this workspace like a mini app: enter input, review output, run examples, and copy or download results.

Tip: start with an example to confirm input/output structure, then replace values with your own data.
Tool workspace will load when it enters the viewport to reduce initial load cost.

Practical Notes

Redirect Checker is designed for quick, repeatable workflows. Start with an example, verify output, then adapt for your own data.

Most tools run directly in your browser. Network diagnostics use guarded server-side requests with strict validation and timeout limits. Avoid pasting private production secrets into any web tool.

Search intent this page covers

This page matches network-diagnostic intent for DNS, TLS, redirect, and availability checks used in production troubleshooting.

Developers often search for redirect checker, redirect chain checker, follow http redirects. Use this output to narrow root-cause analysis before deeper infrastructure investigation.

What this tool does

Redirect Checker follows a URL redirect path and shows each hop as URL, status code, and next destination. This is useful for SEO validation, migration testing, canonicalization checks, and debugging unexpected routing behavior in production environments. The checker runs server-side so it can inspect redirect responses without browser CORS limitations. To prevent runaway loops, the chain is capped at 10 hops and loop-like behavior is surfaced clearly. This gives developers a practical view of how a user agent is likely redirected across domains and protocols. Use this tool to validate 301/302 flows, check HTTP-to-HTTPS transitions, and detect redundant redirect hops that hurt latency. Results should still be verified in your deployment context because CDN and geo edge behavior can differ by region. Pair with Website Status and HTTP Header Checker for complete request-path diagnostics. Redirect-chain visibility helps prevent SEO, performance, and routing issues during launches and migrations. Common workflows include Validate 301/302 migration rules, Check HTTP to HTTPS redirect behavior, Find unnecessary redirect hops. Use it when When links end on unexpected destinations, When auditing canonical URL behavior, When debugging redirect loops. Example workflow: Check redirect chain. Start with sample input, confirm the output shape, then adapt values for your project. You can continue from this page to related tools and guides for deeper debugging without switching context.
