How to use it

Bulk URL Status Code Checker
in three moves.

01

Add your URLs

Paste URLs one per line, or upload a .txt/.csv file. Duplicates are removed automatically.

02

Click "Check URLs"

The tool checks 4 URLs at a time and shows live progress until all are done.

03

Review the results table

See the initial status, final status after redirects, redirect count, final destination, response time, and any soft‑404 or error flags for every URL.

04

Filter, search, or sort

Use the summary chips (Healthy, Broken, Redirects, 5xx, Connection errors, Non‑2xx) or the search box to narrow down what you're looking at.

05

Export your report

Why this one

Built against the ways these tools disappoint.

We ran the same files through the popular alternatives first. These are the gaps we found, and what this tool does instead.

01

Most free bulk checkers only show the first status code and never confirm where a URL actually ends up.

We follow up to 5 redirect hops and log the entire chain, not just the final result.

test: Check a URL you know redirects twice (e.g. http → https → www), then click "View chain" — every hop is listed with its own status code.
02

A page can return a 200 OK while its content actually says "Page Not Found" — most checkers report it as healthy.

We scan the response body for soft‑404 language and flag it separately from real errors, so it doesn't hide in your "healthy" count.

test: Check a URL that shows a custom "not found" message but still returns 200 — it'll be flagged as "Possible soft 404," not marked OK.
03

Some bulk checkers will happily fetch internal/private network addresses if a URL list contains them, which is an SSRF risk.

We block localhost and private IP ranges (10.x, 172.16–31.x, 192.168.x, 127.x, link‑local, IPv6 ULA) before any request is made.

test: Enter http://192.168.1.1 in the list — you'll get a "blocked_host" result instead of a real request being sent.
Key Factors

What makes this the best free URL status checker

Diagnostics most free tools skip

A status code alone doesn't tell the full story. This tool also follows the entire redirect chain, checks for soft-404 pages that quietly hide behind a 200 response, and pulls key SEO-relevant headers like x-robots-tag and cache-control — details that most free checkers stop short of.

A genuinely useful free limit

Many free bulk checkers cap out at 25–150 URLs before pushing you toward a paid plan. This one checks up to 500 URLs per run with no account, no sign-up, and no watermark on the export.

Built-in safety, not an afterthought

URLs that resolve to localhost or private network ranges are blocked automatically, before a request is ever made — so a stray internal link in your list can't accidentally probe your own network.

Nothing stored, nothing tracked

URLs you check are processed for that single request and not written to a database or log. Close the tab and the results are gone unless you've exported them.

The detail

How this actually works.

Bulk URL Status Code Checker: Check Up to 500 URLs for Free

A single broken link is easy to spot. A hundred of them, scattered across an old sitemap, a migrated domain, or a client’s redirect map, are not. That’s the gap this tool is built to close: paste a list of URLs, and within seconds you get the HTTP status code, the full redirect path, response time, and any hidden issues for every single one — without opening a terminal, installing desktop software, or paying for a crawler subscription.

Why Checking URLs in Bulk Matters

Most site owners only discover a broken link when a visitor reports it, or worse, when it shows up as a crawl error in Search Console weeks later. By then, the damage — lost traffic, wasted crawl budget, a frustrated visitor bouncing off a 404 page — has already happened.

Bulk checking flips that around. Instead of reacting to individual errors, you audit your whole link list at once: internal navigation links, backlinks pointing at you, affiliate links, old blog post URLs, or a client’s entire domain after a migration. A five-minute check can surface problems that would otherwise take hours to find by clicking through pages one at a time.

What This Tool Actually Checks

Most free status checkers stop at a single HTTP status code. This one goes further:

  • Initial and final status codes — see both what a URL returns on the first request and what it resolves to after every redirect.
  • Full redirect chains — up to 5 hops, so you can see exactly how a URL gets from A to B, not just the end result. This matters because every extra hop in a chain adds latency and dilutes link equity for SEO.
  • Soft 404 detection — a page can return a technically healthy 200 status while the content on the page actually says “not found.” Standard checkers miss this completely. This tool scans the response body for that language and flags it separately, so it doesn’t hide inside your “healthy” results.
  • Response time — flag slow-loading pages before they affect user experience or Core Web Vitals.
  • Key response headers — content-type, cache-control, server, ETag, last-modified, x-robots-tag, and HSTS, all pulled automatically for each URL.
  • Built-in safety checks — requests to localhost and private network ranges (like 192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x) are blocked automatically before they’re ever made, so a stray internal URL in your list can’t accidentally probe your own network.

How It Compares to Other Free Checkers

Free bulk URL checkers exist across the web, but most trade off one of two things: either they cap you at a small batch size, or they only report a bare status code and stop there. A quick look at what’s commonly offered:

  • Many popular free tools cap out between 25 and 150 URLs per check before nudging you toward a paid plan or an account.
  • Several report only the first status code returned, without confirming what the URL actually resolves to after redirects.
  • Very few flag soft 404s, since it requires actually reading the page content rather than just the response header.

This tool checks up to 500 URLs per run, with no sign-up, and reports the redirect chain and soft-404 status alongside the basic status code — combining a generous free limit with diagnostics that are usually reserved for paid crawling tools.

Who This Tool Is For

SEOs and site auditors can use it to sweep a site’s internal links or a client’s backlink profile for broken URLs and redirect chains that need cleaning up.

Developers and webmasters can run it after a deploy or a domain migration to confirm that redirect rules are firing correctly and nothing is silently 404ing.

Content teams can check outbound links in old blog posts before a refresh, catching dead external references that hurt credibility and user experience.

Agencies can use it as a fast first pass before pulling out a full crawler like Screaming Frog — for a quick health check, this tool answers the “is anything broken right now” question in a couple of minutes.

How to Use It

  1. Paste your URLs into the box, one per line — or upload a .txt or .csv file. Duplicates are removed automatically.
  2. Click “Check URLs” and watch live progress as the tool works through your list in small batches.
  3. Review the results table: status codes, redirect counts, final destinations, response times, and any flags.
  4. Use the summary filters (Healthy, Broken, Redirects, 5xx, Connection errors, Non-2xx) or the search box to zero in on what needs attention.
  5. Export the full report as a CSV, or copy the results straight to your clipboard to share with a team or client.

A Note on Privacy

URLs submitted to this tool are processed for that single check and are not stored or logged afterward. Once you close the tab, the results exist only if you’ve exported them — nothing is retained on our end.

Try It Now

Paste your first batch of URLs above and see the results in real time. No account, no watermark on your export, and no limit that forces you to split a reasonably sized list into multiple runs.

FAQ

The questions people actually type in.

How many URLs can I check for free?

Up to 500 URLs per check, with no account or sign‑up required.

Does it follow redirects?

Yes — up to 5 hops. You'll see the initial status, the final status after all redirects, and the full chain in between.

What is a "soft 404" and why does it matter?

A soft 404 is a page that returns a 200 OK status but actually shows "not found" content. Search engines and most simple checkers can miss these, which lets broken pages sit undetected. This tool scans page text to catch them.

Can I check internal or private URLs (like an intranet address)?

No — for security, requests to localhost and private IP ranges are blocked automatically. This prevents the tool from being used to probe internal networks.

Can I export my results?

Yes. Download a CSV report or copy the results table straight to your clipboard.

Is my URL list stored anywhere?

No. Each check is processed for that request only and isn't logged or saved on our end.
