Check a URL status code

HTTP Status Checker

Check whether a URL returns 200, redirects, 404, 410, 500 or another HTTP response and see the final destination.

Public HTTP/HTTPS URLs only. Private networks and non-standard ports are blocked.

Know the actual HTTP response

A browser often hides the details behind a working-looking page. URLClinic shows the final HTTP status and every redirect encountered on the way.

How it helps

That makes it easier to distinguish a clean 200 response from a 301 chain, a soft-looking error from a real 404, or a server problem such as 500.

How URLClinic approaches the check

URLClinic uses a Cloudflare Worker to request only public HTTP or HTTPS destinations. Redirects are followed manually so each hop can be validated and shown. Response content is size-limited, private network targets are blocked, and the tool avoids forwarding browser cookies or authentication headers to the destination.

The result is designed for practical decisions. It combines raw technical details with plain-language findings and links to related actions such as cleaning, recovery, Rescue Links, monitoring and QR generation.

Limitations you should know

Some websites block automated requests or serve different content to automated clients. A timeout or 403 therefore does not always mean a link is broken. URLClinic also does not execute a full browser session for every analysis, so JavaScript-only content may expose less metadata than a normal browser view.

FAQ

Common questions

Does URLClinic guarantee that a URL is safe?

No. URLClinic reports technical URL and response-level signals. A low-risk result is not proof that a website is trustworthy, malware-free or controlled by the person you expect.

Can URLClinic scan private networks?

No. Local, loopback, link-local and common private IP ranges are blocked, and only standard web ports 80 and 443 are supported.

Does URLClinic store every URL I check?

Ordinary one-off analyses are not intentionally stored in the application database. In the Direct Upload edition, ordinary analyses are not stored in an application database. Signed Rescue Links and shared reports carry only the minimum data required to work, and watchlist items are saved in your browser. See the Privacy Policy for details.
