What does the redirect checker follow?
Only the URL you enter and the destinations in its HTTP redirect chain. It stops after 10 redirects and reports loops. It does not discover or crawl other pages on the site.
Free SEO tool
Enter one URL to see every redirect hop, the final status, and canonical and noindex signals on the destination page.
One URL, one chain
A 301 checker should show more than the first response. This tool follows the HTTP redirects from your URL, reports each step and highlights a loop or a destination that could not be reached.
For a website-wide redirect audit, use URLMatcher's SEO crawler and migration workflow.

Yes. The chain shows each HTTP status, including 301, 302, 303, 307 and 308, its Location destination and the final response.
When the final response is HTML, the checker reads its canonical link, robots meta tag and X-Robots-Tag header. These are the signals returned to this checker; they are not Google's indexing decision.
Websites can vary responses by location, user agent, cookies or time. This tool shows the HTTP response received by URLMatcher at the moment of the check.
These free tools inspect one URL at a time. Create an SEO Project when you want a complete website audit.
