Redirect Checker
Follow a URL through every redirect hop and see each status code, destination, and any loops or HTTPS downgrades along the way.
About this tool
Comprehensive documentation & audit utility guideRedirects add latency to every hop, can silently downgrade a secure connection to plain HTTP, or loop forever if misconfigured. This tool follows a URL one hop at a time — the same way a browser or search engine crawler does — and shows exactly what happens at each step instead of just the final destination.
How it works
1
Enter a URL
Any public URL you suspect might redirect.
2
We trace each hop
Up to 10 redirects are followed, one request at a time.
3
Review the chain
See every status code and destination, plus loop or downgrade warnings.
What it checks
Every redirect hop's status code and destination
Redirect loops
Excessively long redirect chains (10+ hops)
HTTPS → HTTP protocol downgrades mid-chain
