redirect-manager

You can audit redirects.json by fetching the published EDS feed to validate rule integrity, building a redirect graph to detect chains and loops, and checking destination health to flag broken internal targets and SEO-breaking formatting issues.

Finding redirect loops and chains in an EDS redirects spreadsheet is best handled by normalizing paths and building a redirect graph to flag multi-hop inefficiencies and infinite cycles that dilute link equity and hurt SEO.

To fix broken redirect destinations before site migration, perform reachability checks on internal targets to identify 404s, validating every rule and producing an actionable cleaned redirect table with severity-sorted findings.

Yes, the redirect audit works for both relative and fully-qualified redirect entries. It applies during migrations, restructuring, 404 debugging, and pre-go-live maintenance by normalizing all paths before validating rules.

Trailing slashes and case mismatches break SEO redirects by causing formatting problems that disrupt destination reachability. Auditing flags these issues alongside query-string expectations to produce a paste-ready optimized redirects table.
