Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between 301 and 302?
301 and 308 are permanent (search engines move the ranking to the new address); 302, 303 and 307 are temporary.
Why does a link work in my browser but stop here?
Some sites redirect with JavaScript, which we don't run, or block automated requests.
Can I see where a short link goes without opening it?
Yes. That's what this tool is for.
