About WWW Redirect Checker

Your site should answer on one address only, either with or without www, and redirect the other version to it. If both load separately, search engines may see duplicate content and links get split between them. Enter your domain to see whether the redirect is set up correctly.

How to use the WWW Redirect Checker

  1. 1Enter the web address you want to check, for example example.com, in the box above.
  2. 2Click the button to run the check. Most results appear within a few seconds.
  3. 3Read the results, then use Try New URL to test another page or a competitor.

Frequently asked questions

Should I use www or non-www?

Either works for SEO. Pick one, make it your main address in all links and in Search Console, and permanently (301) redirect the other version to it.

What is the difference between a 301 and 302 redirect?

A 301 is permanent and tells search engines to move ranking signals to the new address. A 302 is temporary. Use 301 for www and HTTPS redirects.
