Trace multi-hop HTTP redirects in real time, uncover 301 vs 302 status codes, diagnose infinite loops, and measure per-hop latency to preserve crawl budget and PageRank equity.
Trace HTTP status codes, detect redirect chains, and protect link equity in 3 simple steps.
Submit any HTTP or HTTPS web address to trigger server-side step-by-step redirect header tracing.
Our parser recursively follows Location headers, measures latency per hop (ms), and flags status codes (301, 302, 307, 308, 404).
Inspect the visual step-by-step flowchart and apply direct 1-to-1 redirect updates to preserve link equity and crawler budget.
Critical server routing directives that preserve PageRank equity, reduce round-trip latency, and prevent loop crashes.
HTTP status codes inform crawlers how to handle indexing. A 301 permanently consolidates ranking signals and PageRank, whereas 302 flags temporary routing without indexation transfer.
Each redirect hop requires a distinct Round-Trip Time (RTT) exchange: DNS lookup, TCP connection, TLS handshake, and TTFB. Googlebot aborts crawl chains exceeding 5 consecutive hops.
Circular redirects (A → B → A) cause browsers and search crawlers to abort with fatal errors, immediately de-indexing landing pages and driving bounce rates to 100%.
Prevent split redirect chains where HTTP to HTTPS, non-www to www, and trailing slashes trigger multiple cascading hops. Edge rules should route all requests to the canonical URL in a single hop.
Essential insights into 301 vs 302 directives, chain latency, and Googlebot hop limits.
