Why redirect chains matter
Every redirect adds latency and can dilute link equity. Google follows up to 10 redirects but recommends keeping chains as short as possible. This tool shows the complete path a URL takes before reaching its final destination.

FAQ
What is a 301 vs 302 redirect?+
301 is permanent (passes ~90-99% link equity). 302 is temporary (may not pass link equity). For SEO, use 301 for permanent URL changes.
How many redirects are too many?+
Ideally zero or one hop. Google follows up to 10, but each hop adds latency. More than 2-3 hops usually indicates a problem.
