Every Hop Listed:

Follow the chain step by step, from the first request to the final page.

Response Times:

See how long each hop takes and the total time for the chain.

When migrating our e-commerce store, we were terrified of losing organic search traffic due to indexation drops or broken redirect chains. Odyssey’s Indexation Checker and technical site auditor flagged several canonical tag mismatches before they could impact our revenue. It’s given our in-house team complete peace of mind.

Frequently Asked Questions

It shows the final status code for a URL, the number of redirects, the total number of hops and the total time taken, followed by the full redirect chain with the status code, response time and URL of each hop, and the final destination URL.

A redirect chain is when one URL redirects to another, which then redirects again before reaching the final page. For example, http://bbc.co.uk redirects to https://bbc.co.uk/ and then to https://www.bbc.co.uk/: two redirects and three hops. Each extra hop adds loading time, so it is best to point redirects straight at the final URL.

The tool confirms that the URL resolves directly and shows the single request with its status code and response time, rather than reporting an error.

Every hop is a separate request. Slow or unnecessary hops delay the page for visitors and make it harder for search engines to crawl your site efficiently.

Yes. You can check any public URL, including your own pages, client sites and links you plan to use in campaigns.
