archive.org is the best bet... wait for the archive.org page to load... if it was redirected it will show up a message in the start.. if you have opened up multiple archive.org snapshots, check in the url once the snapshots have completed loading.. if the domain/url in the snapshot is different from the domain name then it was redirected.. if it is redirected to an inner page of the website, it is not much of an issue if you know to use it wisely but the problem is in case of external 301 redirection
