What this checker tests
- Every HTTP status and destination
- HTTP-to-HTTPS behavior
- Redirect loops
- Excessive chains and final response
Trace each HTTP redirect, reveal the final destination, and detect loops or excessive chains.
One permanent redirect to the canonical HTTPS URL is usually simplest.
Several hops add latency and create more places for migrations to break.
For security, only public HTTP and HTTPS destinations can be inspected.
