Start using NOW! WHAT IS A URL REDIRECT CHECKER? The purpose of a URL redirect checker tool is to track the path of a URL and display the status codes and headers associated with each step. In simple words, a 301 redirect checker reveals every point the URL must pass through before it fully loads on a browser after being entered in the address bar. WHAT IS URL REDIRECTION? URL redirection is the process when you click on a particular web page or link but land on a different webpage. This is a common occurrence that often happens without our awareness. A website often uses URL redirection to refer users to its partner websites or prevent them from visiting inactive web pages. WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF HTTP REDIRECTS? Following are the various types of URL redirections that can be entirely tracked by using the RankWatch Online Url Redirect Checker Tool, 301 REDIRECT CODE (PERMANENT) When a message “The requested resource has been moved permanently” appears, it means that a webpage or resource has been permanently replaced with another resource. Simply put, 301 indicates permanent URL redirection. 302 REDIRECT CODE (TEMPORARY) The message "The requested resource has moved, but was found" signifies that the requested resource was discovered but not in the anticipated location. This is known as a 302 redirect and indicates temporary URL redirection. 307 REDIRECT CODE When you see a message "Temporary Redirect" it signifies the 307 status code. It is used instead of 302 "Found" to indicate the temporary movement of a resource to a new URL. Unlike 302, it only focuses on the crawl and does not permit any change in the HTTP method. META REFRESH A Meta refresh redirect is executed on the client side. While 301 and 302 redirects take place on the web server, a Meta refresh redirects the web browser to load a different web page after a specific period. A typical Meta refresh redirect involves a countdown of five seconds accompanied by a message that says, “If you are not redirected in five seconds, click here.” As per Google, Meta Refresh can be treated as any other redirect code. However, using Meta Refresh can create the following problems, * If the redirect takes place too fast (in less than 5 seconds), that can confuse the users. * If users of specific browsers are unable to click on the ‘Back Button’, it can irritate them. * If a refresh takes place without any initiation from the users’ end, it can raise questions in their minds about your website’s security. * Spammers use Meta refresh frequently to ditch search engines. Hence, using Meta refresh redirect codes quite often may compel the search engines to consider your website as spam. That may lead to removal from indexing. * Meta refresh redirection passes minimum or no link juice. Hence, it is recommended to use Meta refresh redirect code mainly when you need to redirect a single file to a multiple-file directory. Otherwise, using a server-side 301 redirect code is always safer. WHY IS URL REDIRECT ESSENTIAL FOR SEO? By utilizing a URL redirect checker, it is possible to troubleshoot redirected links to ensure they are functioning correctly and not resulting in a 404 error. Moreover, redirect checkers can examine the entire path and ultimate server destination of shortened URLs generated by tools available in the market. This can prove to be beneficial for determining the status code of redirects and selecting a URL-shortening service that employs 301 redirects for optimal SEO benefits. According to some Google employees, 301 and 302 redirects are treated similarly, but many SEO experts suggest that using 301 redirects may increase the chances of appearing in SERPs. However, the number of people using 301 redirects is higher than those using 302 redirects. Moreover, one can utilize a redirect checker to eliminate trackers by tracing redirection paths and accessing the intended web source preventing all kinds of data logging. One more helpful way to use this link redirect checker is to monitor affiliate links. That will ensure that you are linked to the main affiliate program rather than its subset that may be taking a cut of the commissions.
