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 guide
Verified Utility

Redirects 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.
