How to use Redirect Checker
Redirect Checker. Trace 301, 302 and meta-refresh chains. 301 (or 308) for permanent moves, which pass ranking signals to the new URL.
The short answer
To check redirects, enter a URL. ClickZM follows every hop and lists each status code (301, 302, 307, 308), location and response time until the final page, flagging long chains, loops and mixed http/https steps.
A browser cannot make this check itself, so ClickZM's server does it, blocks private addresses, and does not store the lookup.
How to use it
Enter the website address, domain or IP you want to check.
Click the button to run the Redirect Checker.
Read the results; warnings and errors are highlighted with an explanation.
Fix any issue, then run the check again to confirm.
Limits worth knowing
301 or 302: which should I use? 301 (or 308) for permanent moves, which pass ranking signals to the new URL. 302 or 307 only for temporary changes.
How many redirects are too many? Keep it to one hop. Google follows up to 10, but each hop slows users down and wastes crawl budget.
