Website & Network Tools

Diagnose any website from the outside — HTTP headers and status codes, DNS and IP lookups, SEO and social meta tags, page size and WordPress detection.

About Website & Network Tools

This category gathers nine tools for inspecting a website the way a browser, a search engine or a curious developer would. Point them at a URL or domain and they report what the site actually returns: its HTTP response headers and status code and redirect chain, its DNS records and the IP address a domain points to, the SEO meta tags and social Open Graph tags in the page, its HTML size, and whether it is built on WordPress. The user agent checker turns the lens on your own browser.

They fit together into the checks you run all the time. Migrating a site? Confirm old URLs 301 to the right place and DNS has propagated. Debugging email? Read the MX and TXT records. Fixing why a shared link looks wrong? Check the Open Graph tags. Auditing a competitor? See their server, theme and page weight. Instead of a dozen scattered utilities, each of these does one job and shows the result in plain terms.

The URL-based tools fetch from our server, so they show what an ordinary anonymous visitor receives, and they are built to be safe: every address is validated before connecting, so private and internal hosts cannot be reached, and requests are rate-limited. Nothing you check is stored. For building the tags these tools inspect, see the meta tag generator and Open Graph generator.

Frequently asked questions

Do these tools check my site from a real browser?

The URL-based tools fetch the page from our server with a standard browser-like user agent, so they show what a normal anonymous visitor would receive — not what a logged-in session or a specific browser sees.

Can I use them on any website?

Yes, any public http or https site. For safety, requests to private, local or internal addresses are blocked, and there is a modest per-user rate limit.

Is anything I check stored?

No. Each request is handled and returned live; the URLs and results are not saved.

Why does a tool show less than I expected?

The URL tools read the HTML the server returns. Pages that build content or tags with JavaScript after loading may expose less than a full browser would render.
