About URL Expander Tool
What is the URL Expander Tool?
The URL Expander Tool helps you trace link redirects and check URL redirects by following each redirect to reveal the final destination of any shortened or masked URL. It acts as a reliable URL redirect checker, ensuring your safety and transparency before clicking on a link. This tool is essential for verifying where short links, like those from T.LY, bit.ly, TinyURL, and goo.gl, ultimately lead. You can view:
- Page title and meta description of the destination
- A live screenshot of the final page
- DNS records and WhoIs information
- SSL certificate details for security validation
- Links to multiple trusted services to check URL safety
How It Works
- Paste a shortened URL (e.g., T.LY, bit.ly, or goo.gl) into the input box.
- Click "Expand URL" to trace all redirects and check the URL redirect path.
- Review the expanded URL, redirect chain, security checks, and site details before visiting.
Key Features
