Frequently asked questions

What is a redirect chain?

A redirect chain occurs when a URL redirects multiple times before reaching the final destination. Long chains slow page load and can lose link equity for SEO.

How do you detect malicious links?

We check against known blocklists, analyze the destination domain reputation, and flag suspicious patterns like URL shorteners hiding the final destination.

Are URL shorteners safe to use?

URL shorteners obscure the destination, making them popular for phishing. In emails, avoid shorteners—use full URLs or branded short domains you control.
