Redirect and HTTP status checker

Enter any URL to follow it hop by hop and see each status code. Long chains, temporary (302) redirects and http-to-https issues are flagged.

Questions

301 or 302?Use 301 for permanent moves so search engines transfer the old page's signals. 302 is for genuinely temporary moves.
Why do redirect chains matter?Each hop adds delay and some lost signal. Point old URLs straight at the final address.
