HTTP to HTTPS Redirect Checker

What this tool does

Requests the HTTP version of the domain and checks the redirect status, destination and number of hops, then reads HSTS on the final page.

Who should use it

Anyone who migrated to HTTPS.

How it works

http://host/ is fetched without following redirects, then again with redirects to get the final URL and headers.

How to use it

1. Enter the full address of the page or site, including https://.
2. Press the run button. The check makes live requests from our server and can take up to about 30 seconds.
3. Read the findings first, then open the tables for detail. Each finding has a severity and a suggested fix.
4. Copy or download the results if the tool offers it, fix the issues on your site and run the check again to confirm.

Practical example

A 302 from HTTP to HTTPS gives a warning to use 301.

Understanding the results

A 200 on http:// means an insecure duplicate is reachable.

Limitations

This is a live check of the URL, made from our server; results can differ from what search engines or visitors see from other locations. The root path is tested, not every URL.

Accuracy and report transparency

Findings come from a real HTTP request made by our server. The result panel shows the checked URL, the UTC time of the check and the data source, and separates measured findings from limitations. We do not show random or sample metrics.

Privacy

The URL you enter is used only to make the request and is not stored in our database. Results may be cached for about ten minutes to limit repeat requests, and the checker blocks local and private network addresses. See the Privacy Policy.
