The Check Server Headers tool is another helpful online tool that you can use to check and verify HTTP status codes of any page. Server headers and HTTP status codes are a matter of particular importance in ensuring that search engines see your content. But checking them can be a bit tricky.

The Check Server Headers tool is very simple and easy to use, you just need to enter a valid URL, and the tool will give you one of seven HTTP status codes. It will also -and this is important- give you an interpretation of the code.

In the HTTP 1.1 specification there are actually 40 different response codes that you might receive (http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec6.html#sec6.1.1). Most you will never encounter. The codes are broken down further by the following:

1xx – Informational
2xx – Success
3xx – Redirection
4xx – Client Error
5xx – Server Error

The complete list follows and the section number is the HTTP specification section.

As i said in my first post, this tool will help you to verify the status of any page by checking its HTTP status code.

For example, when you are updating a website you usually make things like changing file names, add, delete or update page content, move inside another folder a page or group of pages located at your root folder, delete a page, etc., so, with this tool you can verify that every thing is fine and any search engine can be able to view your changes.


And thanks to tansqrx to post the complete list of HTTP status codes.

Best regards,
