Redirect checker
Every extra hop spends crawl budget. Trace the chain hop by hop and see where it lands.
What it checks
Follows your URL manually and reports each hop plus the final status.
Redirect chain hops (manual trace, up to 5), final status code.
How verdicts work
pass means two or fewer hops landing on 200; longer chains fail; broken chains fail at the break; a missing page is na.
Reads the no-JS response only, never runs JS. Traces up to 5 redirects.
