Why Check HTTP Status Codes?
HTTP status codes tell you whether a web page or API endpoint is working correctly. A 200 status means everything is fine, while 4xx and 5xx codes indicate problems. Regularly checking your URLs helps you catch broken links, misconfigured redirects, and server errors before they affect your users or search rankings.
Impact on SEO
Search engines use HTTP status codes to understand your site structure. Broken pages (404) waste crawl budget. Incorrect redirects (302 instead of 301) can prevent link equity from passing. Use this tool alongside our Google PageSpeed Test for complete site health checks. Verify SSL with the SSL Certificate Checker.
Developer Workflow
When building APIs, checking status codes is essential for debugging. Combine this with the Online Code Editor to test fetch requests. Use the URL Encoder Decoder to properly format URL parameters before checking.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does it actually check live URLs?
Yes, the tool makes real HTTP requests to the URLs you enter and returns the actual status code from the server.
Why do some URLs show CORS errors?
Some servers block cross-origin requests from browsers. In those cases, the tool reports a network/CORS error. The URL may still be working fine — try it directly in your browser.
How many URLs can I check at once?
You can check multiple URLs using the Bulk Check feature. We recommend checking up to 20 URLs at a time for best performance.
Does it follow redirects?
The browser's fetch API follows redirects automatically and shows the final status code. The tool notes if a redirect occurred.
What does response time measure?
Response time measures the total time from sending the request to receiving the first response, including DNS lookup and connection time.
Is my data secure?
Requests are made directly from your browser. We don't log or store any URLs you check.
Is it free?
Yes, 100% free with no limits.
