HTTP Status Checker

Read the status code, headers and redirect chain returned by any URL.

Public pages only. Toolspea fetches the page for you because a browser tab cannot read another origin directly — nothing you enter is stored.

What is HTTP Status Checker?

HTTP Status Checker requests a public URL and reports the final status code, the redirect chain that led to it, and the response headers that matter for caching, indexing and transport security.

How to use it

  1. 1Paste the URL to test.
  2. 2Run the check.
  3. 3Read the final status and the header table.
  4. 4Review the redirect chain beneath it.

Features

  • Final status code and status text
  • Cache-Control, Content-Encoding and X-Robots-Tag reporting
  • Flags a missing Strict-Transport-Security header
  • Full redirect chain with per-hop status codes

When people use it

Deploy verification

Confirm a new page returns 200 and the old URL returns a permanent redirect.

Indexing debugging

Check whether an X-Robots-Tag header is quietly blocking a page from search.

Known limits

  • Requests come from Toolspea's fetcher, so geo-targeted or bot-filtered responses may differ from yours.
