Overview

This tool checks any list of URLs for their HTTP status codes, identifies redirects, and reports any errors, helping you maintain a healthy website and troubleshoot link issues.

Maintaining a healthy website means ensuring all your links work as intended and that visitors reach the correct pages. The Simple HTTP Status Code Checker is designed to give you clear visibility into the status of any URL you provide. It goes beyond a basic 'is it live?' check, providing crucial details for webmasters, SEO specialists, and content managers. ### What it Does This tool allows you to input a list of URLs and, for each one, it performs an HTTP request to determine its status. It identifies the exact numeric HTTP status code (like 200 OK, 301 Moved Permanently, 404 Not Found, or 500 Internal Server Error). Crucially, it also detects if a URL redirects and, if so, tells you the final destination URL. Any connection or server-side issues encountered during the check are also reported as errors. ### Why it Matters * **SEO Health:** Broken links (404s) negatively impact user experience and can hurt your search engine rankings. Proper 301 redirects are essential for passing 'link equity' when pages move, ensuring your SEO efforts aren't lost. This tool helps you catch and fix these issues promptly. * **User Experience:** No one likes clicking a link only to hit a dead end or be sent to the wrong place. By verifying your links, you ensure a smooth browsing experience for your audience. * **Content Audits:** For large websites or content libraries, manually checking every link is impossible. This tool automates the process, letting you quickly audit external resources or internal navigation. * **Migration Validation:** After a website redesign or migration, verifying that old URLs correctly redirect to new ones is a critical step. This checker provides the data needed to confirm your redirect strategy is working. ### Key Data Points You Get * **Original URL:** The web address you asked the tool to check. * **HTTP Status Code:** The numeric code returned by the server, indicating the request's outcome (e.g., 200 for success, 404 for not found). * **Is Redirect:** A clear indication of whether the URL redirected to another address. * **Redirect URL:** If a redirect occurred, this is the final destination URL. * **Error Message:** If the tool couldn't reach the URL or encountered an issue, this field provides details.
