- We follow each redirect, up to 10 hops.

301 vs 302
301 and 308 mean moved permanently – search engines transfer rankings to the new URL. 302 and 307 mean temporary – rankings may stay with the old URL.
Why redirect chains hurt
Each hop adds delay for visitors and uses search engine crawl budget. Point links and redirects straight at the final URL.
