Redirect Chain Analyzer — Visualize Every Hop

Enter a URL to see every redirect step, including status codes and latency per hop. Identify unnecessary hops that hurt page speed and SEO, and detect redirect loops.

Tips for a healthy redirect chain

  • Keep chains to 1 hop when possible. Each extra hop adds latency and dilutes link equity.
  • Use 301 (permanent) redirects for anything that has been moved permanently.
  • Avoid redirect loops — they break browsing and cause search engines to drop the URL.
  • Avoid chains longer than 3 hops — Google may not follow beyond 5 and will not pass full equity.
