Hi all

Im looking after a new site that had a redesign in July.

I would like to identify all the redirects that may have been implemented on this site.

How would I go about finding this please?

Thanks

1. The easiest way to find them is to get the htaccess files or firewall/loadbalancer configuration files where they are defined.
2. If you just need to look for them in specific situations like on a competitor's website then an SEO robot is probably best,
3. If you just need to identify one or two then open chrome, open the inspector, click the network tab, then goto the URL you think is being redirected. Then near the top of the network activity look for the requests with a status value in the 300s.
