Questions

What’s the difference between 301, 302, 307 and 308?

301 and 308 are permanent: browsers and search engines remember the new address and pass on ranking. 302 and 307 are temporary. 307 and 308 also keep the request method (a form submission stays a submission); 301 and 302 may turn it into a plain visit.

Is it safe to check a suspicious link here?

The pages aren’t opened, only requested by UtilSlate’s server, so nothing runs on your device. The link’s owner can still see that it was requested (from Cloudflare’s network, not from you). The final page could still be harmful if you then open it yourself.

Why doesn’t it follow JavaScript or meta refresh redirects?

Those happen inside a page after it loads, and the tool never reads or runs pages. It shows HTTP redirects, the kind servers send.

Is it free? Do I need an account?

It is free to use and there is nothing to sign up for. There are no watermarks and no daily limits.
