HTTP Status Code Checker

About This Tool

So, you're building something on the web—maybe a site, an API, or just debugging why that one endpoint keeps failing. You send a request, and instead of the data you wanted, you get a number like 404 or 500. Annoying, right? That’s where an HTTP Status Code Checker comes in. It’s not flashy, but it’s one of those tools you don’t appreciate until you really need it. This thing basically hits a URL and tells you what the server says back—not the content, just the status code. Simple? Yeah. Useful? Absolutely. Whether you're a dev, a tester, or just someone trying to figure out why a link is broken, this tool cuts through the noise and gives you the cold, hard truth from the server.

Key Features

• Quickly checks any public URL and returns the HTTP status code—no setup, no login.
• Supports common methods like GET and HEAD, so you can test without loading full pages.
• Shows response time, so you can spot slow servers or timeouts.
• Works with redirects—tells you if it’s a 301, 302, or something else, and where it’s going.
• No tracking, no ads. It just does one job and does it quietly.
• Mobile-friendly. Because sometimes you’re debugging from your phone at 2 a.m.

FAQ

Q: Why would I use this instead of just opening the link in my browser?
A: Browsers hide a lot. They might show a custom 404 page that looks fine, but the actual status is still an error. This tool cuts through the polish and shows you what the server really returned. Plus, it’s faster than loading full pages when you’re testing dozens of URLs.

Q: Does it work with private or login-protected pages?
A: Nope. It only checks public URLs that don’t require authentication. If the page needs a login, cookies, or headers, this tool won’t get past the gate. For those, you’ll need something more advanced—like Postman or curl.
