The www Redirect Checker tool from seochecker.tools helps you verify whether your domain is correctly redirecting between the www and non-www versions. For example:
✅ https://example.com → https://www.example.com
or
✅ https://www.example.com → https://example.com
Search engines treat these as two separate domains. If your site doesn't redirect correctly, it can lead to duplicate content issues, diluted backlinks, and confused search bots.
Search engines index websites based on canonical URLs. If both versions (with and without www) are accessible without redirection, your site's SEO can suffer.
Proper redirection ensures:
Only one version is indexed
Backlink value is consolidated to a single URL
Prevents duplicate content penalties
Maintains consistent branding and user experience
Detects if proper 301/302 redirection is in place
Supports http, https, www, and non-www variations
Instant results — no registration needed
Mobile-optimized and fast

Q1. What is a www redirect?
It's a rule that forces all visitors to access your website through either the www or non-www version, ensuring consistency.
Q2. Is it important to redirect www to non-www or vice versa?
Yes! Choose one as your preferred domain, and redirect the other to it using a 301 redirect for SEO and branding.
Q3. Which version is better for SEO: www or non-www?
Both are SEO-friendly if properly configured. Just stick with one, and set it as your canonical domain.
Q4. How can I fix improper redirection?
Update your server configuration (e.g., .htaccess for Apache) to include 301 redirects from the non-preferred version.
