Trace bounded HTTP and simple HTML redirects from this server. Select a User-Agent, inspect each hop and preserve the last completed report when retrying.
Requests originate on this server. A spoofed User-Agent does not make the request a real search-engine bot. HTML patterns are inspected but JavaScript is not executed; cookies and authenticated browser sessions are not reproduced.
Only public HTTP(S) targets are allowed; each hop is checked. The result is a snapshot, not an SEO ranking guarantee. Review URL query strings before sharing exports.
The check runs from the InetTools server. The tool follows only public HTTP/HTTPS URLs and blocks redirects to private network addresses.

✓Use the tool after changing URL structure, moving to HTTPS, configuring canonical domains or updating nginx/Apache redirect rules.
✓A short chain is usually best: one hop from HTTP to HTTPS or from an old URL to a new URL is better than several intermediate redirects.
✓User-Agent selection helps reveal different responses for desktop browsers, mobile devices and search crawlers.
✓If the final URL returns 4xx or 5xx, the redirect technically worked, but users and bots still land on an error page.
✓Meta refresh and JavaScript redirects are harder for crawlers to interpret and should usually be used only when an HTTP redirect is not possible.
✓HTTPS to HTTP downgrade is a security issue because it can reduce browser trust and hurt user experience.
