Website Status Checker
Check if your website is online — HTTP status codes, response time, redirects and availability. For security headers, use the HTTP Header Checker.
Try:
Free status check • Live HTTP • No signup
Requests the website from our servers and follows redirects to report availability at check time.
Why website status checks matter
Availability affects visitor trust, conversions and search visibility. A live status check shows whether your site responds, which HTTP code it returns, and where redirects send visitors — so you can catch downtime or misconfiguration before it impacts users.
What this checker validates
One check reviews website availability, status code, redirects and response timing.
HTTP status code
Review codes like 200, 301, 404 and 500.
Response time
Measure how long the server takes to respond.
Redirect behavior
See redirect count, final URL and redirect chain.
HTTPS availability
Check whether the secure HTTPS version works.
Final destination
Confirm where visitors land after redirects.
Common website status issues this tool can detect
Find availability, response and redirect issues that may affect visitors or search engines.
Availability & timeouts
- Website not responding
- Connection or timeout failures
- DNS resolution failed
HTTP errors
- 4xx client error responses
- 5xx server error responses
- Unexpected status codes
Redirects & HTTPS
- HTTP not redirecting to HTTPS
- Too many redirect hops
- Final URL differs from input
DNS & performance
- Slow server response time
- HTTPS unavailable
- Final destination unexpected
One live check shows the result at the time of testing. It does not replace continuous uptime monitoring.
How website status checking works
The checker requests your website and follows redirects to understand availability.
Enter a website
We clean the input, normalize the URL and prepare HTTPS and HTTP checks.
Request the website
The tool checks response status, response time, HTTPS availability and redirect behavior.
Review availability
See whether the website is online, where it redirects and what should be fixed.
When to check website status
- New site launch
- Post-deployment
- Downtime investigation
- DNS change
- Periodic review
- Before campaign
Understanding HTTP status results
2xx Success
The website responded successfully. 200 OK is the most common healthy result.
3xx Redirect
The website redirects to another URL. This is normal when redirects are configured correctly.
4xx Client error
The requested page may be missing or blocked. 404 means the specific page was not found.
5xx Server error
The server failed to handle the request. This usually needs technical attention.
Website status checks show the result at the time of testing. They do not replace continuous uptime monitoring.

Frequently asked questions
A website status checker tests whether a website responds successfully and shows the HTTP status code, response time and redirect behavior.
HTTP 200 means the request was successful and the website returned a normal response.
HTTP 404 means the requested page was not found. It may affect only that specific URL, not the whole website.
HTTP 500 means the server encountered an error while handling the request.
No. This is a live one-time status check. Continuous uptime monitoring would require repeated checks over time.
No. The Website Status Checker is free and does not require signup.
