The tool

What the Redirect Checker checks

Redirects should be short and deliberate. Long chains slow your site and leak SEO value; loops break it entirely; and inconsistent www/HTTPS handling splits your ranking signals across duplicate URLs.

Domain Doctor follows your redirect chain hop by hop, showing each status code and destination. It confirms HTTP upgrades to HTTPS, that www and the apex settle on one canonical host, and that there are no loops.

Questions

Frequently asked

Do redirects hurt SEO?

Long chains and temporary (302) redirects where permanent (301) is intended can dilute ranking signals. Keep redirects to a single 301 hop to the canonical URL.

Should I redirect www to non-www or the other way?

Either is fine, what matters is picking one canonical host and 301-redirecting the other to it consistently.
