HTTP & Redirect Check

Inspect status codes, redirect chains and the final destination of a URL.

Free · instant

Run a deterministic technical check

The result comes from HTTP requests, parsers and maintained rules — no AI guessing, so it is reproducible.

A specific public page, e.g. https://yourbrand.com/guides/one

Requests are rate-limited and cached. Only public content is fetched.

01

What does this tool check?

We follow the URL hop by hop and record every redirect status and target, the final HTTP status, content type, response size and timing — the exact chain a crawler walks.

02

How should I read the result?

Long chains (3+) waste crawl budget and lose signals; http→https and www/non-www should resolve in one hop. A 200 at the end of five redirects is still a problem worth fixing.

03

What should I do next?

Point internal links and sitemap entries at the final URL directly, not at redirecting aliases.

Access rules change without warning

robots.txt edits and CDN bot rules usually ship without anyone telling you. InsightWonder re-checks on a schedule and alerts you when a crawler starts getting blocked.
