Check redirects

Paste a list of addresses, for example the old addresses of a site that moved. Snoei follows each one to where it ends and tells you whether that happens cleanly.

Public pages only, one at a time

How to prune politely

More about Snoei and robots.txt

  • Public only, entered by you

    Snoei only reads pages that anyone can see without logging in, and only the address you enter. It skips login pages.

  • No email addresses or phone numbers

    Snoei refuses to collect them. Links to mailto: and tel: are only counted, never shown or exported.

  • Copyright stays

    Texts, tables and images belong to whoever made them. Use them to check or to quote with a source, not to copy.

  • One page at a time

    No crawling of whole sites. Snoei reads what you give, at most checks the links or language versions of that one page, follows robots.txt and keeps the pace low.

How it works

Check redirects in three steps

  1. Paste your list

    One address per line, up to 20. Snoei skips lines starting with # and doubles.

  2. Snoei follows each one

    Three at a time, up to five steps. Only the answers: Snoei does not read the pages themselves.

  3. See what could be better

    Chains, temporary redirects and addresses that end in an error come first. Download everything as CSV.

Questions

Good to know

  • What is the difference between 301 and 302?

    301 and 308 say a page moved for good: search engines take over the new address. 302 and 307 are temporary: the old address still counts. After a move you almost always want a 301.

  • Why is a chain a problem?

    Every step takes time and every step can fail. Point an old address at the final one in a single step, not via http, then https, then www.

  • Why only 20 addresses?

    That keeps Snoei polite to the sites it calls on, and everything fits in one request. Have more? Do them in parts.
