Redirect Checker FAQ
What is a URL redirect checker?
A URL redirect checker follows a link automatically and reports each intermediate URL, status code, and final destination.
How do I verify a 301 redirect checker result?
Run the original URL and confirm the first redirect hop is 301 Moved Permanently and the final page returns a healthy status like 200.
Can I use this as a broken link checker?
Yes. If the chain ends with 4xx/5xx errors, that URL may be broken or misconfigured.
