Paste up to 200 URLs, from Search Console, a sitemap or a spreadsheet, and this bulk checker returns each one's HTTP status code, so you can spot 404s, redirects and server errors in one run. You get redirect targets, response times, content types, and CSV export.

Step-by-step guide
Bulk status checker: audit up to 200 URLs for 404s, redirects, and server errors

You finished a site migration or inherited a large URL list. Checking HTTP status by hand is not workable, and a page-level broken link checker only tests links on pages it crawls — not the status of every URL you care about. The Bulk URL Status Checker is a free browser tool that checks up to 200 URLs per run. Paste a list from Search Console, a sitemap export, or a spreadsheet and get each URL's HTTP status code — 200, 301, 404, 500, and the rest — without logging in.

Complete a bulk URL and bulk 404 audit

After your bulk URL checker flags 4xx and 3xx responses, use a page-level 404 checker on high-traffic templates and trace redirect chains so link equity reaches the final URL.

Where to get your URL list

Export the Pages report in Google Search Console and filter for "Not found (404)" rows, or copy URLs from your XML sitemap. Before a migration, export the old site's URL list from your CMS or analytics so you can compare after cutover. The Sitemap Errors Checker helps validate a full sitemap file when you need more than a flat URL paste.

Reading the table

Each row shows the HTTP status class (2xx, 3xx, 4xx, 5xx), the first response code returned for that URL, response time, redirect target when the server sends a Location header, and content type when available. A 301 or 308 usually means Google should treat the destination as the canonical URL; a 302 or 307 often leaves the source URL in the index unless you change it to a permanent redirect. Google has said 3xx redirects do not lose PageRank — the practical difference is which URL gets indexed. Treat 404 and 410 as missing pages, 403 as often bot-blocking (open the URL in a browser before you delete the link), and 5xx as server fixes first.

After the bulk check

404s that had traffic or inbound links deserve a 301 to the closest live page; 404s that never mattered can stay gone. Re-run the same pasted list after you publish redirects so the CSV confirms fixes. For links on one page rather than a URL list, use the Broken Link Checker as your 404 checker for that template.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many URLs can I check at once?

Up to 200 URLs per run. Paste one URL per line or comma-separated values from a spreadsheet, Search Console export, or sitemap list. Results export to CSV for sorting and sharing.

Is this a bulk 404 checker?

Yes. It requests each URL you paste and shows the HTTP status code, so you can filter the table or CSV for 404, 410, and other error codes in one pass. It does not crawl your site — you supply the list.

What is the difference between the Bulk Status Checker and the Broken Link Checker?

This tool checks a list of URLs you already have. The Broken Link Checker fetches one page and tests every link on that page. Use bulk status for sitemap or Search Console lists; use the 404 checker when you want every href on a single URL.

Does it follow redirects or detect redirect loops?

Each URL is checked with a single request and reports the first HTTP status and redirect target when the server responds with a 3xx. It does not walk a full redirect chain or flag loops. Use the Redirect Chain Checker when you need hop-by-hop paths and loop detection.

Can I check URLs that need a login?

No. Requests use an anonymous browser user-agent with no cookies or authentication. Password-protected or members-only URLs may return 401, 403, or a login page status that does not reflect the public site.
