      I'm looking for a tool like this:

      http://www.internetofficer.com/seo-tool/redirect-check/

      that can check hundreds/thousands of URLs and give me a report as to which ones have been redirected.

      Does anyone know of something that can do this?

        Hey John,

        I presume you're more interested in external links that are pointing to URL's that are 302'd (temporary redirected) since they are basically missed opportunity along with those URL's that are broken.

        Finding both are pretty easy to accomplish once you've run the SEOmoz crawl report.  Once its done it should show up here.  Download the report and open in excel.

        When open, setup the following column filters based on section titles on row 6:

        1. Filter to only show URL's that have external links pointing at them (column AO on my report)

        2. Filter to only show 302 redirects (column S on my report)

        3. Take note of resulting list which are those pages that have temp redirects AND which have external links pointing at them.

        4. Now remove the 302 filter and apply filters for 4XX and 5XX "client errors" to find URL's that appear broken to the engines AND which have in-bound external links.

        I hope that helps.

        Cheers,

        Stefan

          I ran the test yesterday using the SEO Webcrawler Crawl Test. The URL.

          The site I scanned was a site with three pages on the domain and several thousand external links. My goal is to find out if the external links are pointing at 301's or are broken.

          How do I do this with this tool?

            A crawl of a website will do this such as the crawl test tool from SEOmoz. This will crawl up to 3,000 pages and can be found under the research tools tab.

            Alternatively you could use the Screaming Frog SEO Spider which will crawl 500 urls for free or for £99 a year, the 500 url limit is removed.

            Both crawl reports will give you detailed info about redirects.

            Adam.

              Why Do Different Tools Report 404s Differently?

              Hi Mozers, How come Moz reports just six 404 errors, whereas Google Search Console reports 250 and Screaming Frog only reports a dozen? It seems to me that these results are all over the place. Shouldn't these reports be more consistent? I do understand that Search Console includes historical data and that URLs or issues need to be "marked as fixed" in order for them to go away, however, even if I do this, Google ends up reporting far more errors than anything else. Do 404s reported by Moz and Screaming Frog NOT include external links? It seems to me that this could be partially responsible for the issue. Also, is there a way to efficiently track the source of the 404s besides clicking on "Linked From" within Search Console 250 times? I was looking for something like this is Moz or SF but no luck. Any help is appreciated. Thanksabunch!

              Tool recommendation for Page Depth?

              I'd like to crawl our ecommerce site to see how deep (clicks from home page) pages are. I want to verify that every category, sub-category, and product detail page is within three clicks of the home page for googlebot. Suggestions? Thanks!

              I heard from a company that is trying to get my clients SEO business that they discovered multiple sites mirroring our site's content. Does SEOmoz have a tool to find these websites? Or does Google?
