What Campaign Link Checker helps you do

Use this checker before publishing an ad, email, social post, or partner link. It follows the destination chain and brings attribution, landing-page, and share-preview checks into one report so a small URL mistake is easier to catch before real traffic arrives. It is a launch checklist for one URL, not an analytics platform.

Haivix fetches the submitted URL to inspect redirects and page metadata. Submitted URLs are not permanently stored, and the report is generated for the current check.

How it works

The tool requests the submitted URL and follows the response chain, recording each status code and location header. It parses the query string at the start and at the final landing page, then compares the campaign keys you care about. The final page is inspected for title, description, canonical, robots directives and Open Graph metadata. Because the request comes from Haivix infrastructure, a site may treat it differently from a real visitor.

How to use Campaign Link Checker

Paste the exact campaign URL, including UTM parameters and ad click IDs.
Run the check and compare starting parameters with the values that reach the final landing page.
Review the redirect chain, final status, canonical and robots signals.
Fix lost UTMs, redirect issues, or noindex warnings, then re-run.
Copy the plain-text report if someone else needs to make the fix.

When to use it

Checking a paid-search or paid-social URL before the campaign goes live.
Confirming that a link shortener or tracking template preserves UTMs.
Diagnosing why a campaign shows traffic but no conversions in analytics.
Reviewing a partner or affiliate link before a newsletter send.
Checking the social preview of a landing page before sharing it.
Auditing a redirect after a site migration or domain change.

When not to use it

Do not use it as a substitute for conversion tracking or analytics QA.
Do not expect it to test every geo, device or consent variation.
Do not treat a passing report as proof that the landing page is relevant to the ad.

Example

A paid-social URL includes utm_source, utm_medium, utm_campaign and fbclid. The checker shows a 301 to a regional domain, then a 302 to a login gate that drops every query parameter. The report makes the cause obvious, the tracking template is corrected, and the second run reaches the landing page with all four values intact.

What you can do with Campaign Link Checker

Trace each redirect hop and confirm the final HTTP status.
Check whether UTM parameters and common ad click IDs survive the redirect chain.
Flag duplicate or double-encoded parameters that can make attribution ambiguous.
Review the final page title, description, canonical, robots signals, and Open Graph image.
Spot redirect loops or unusually long chains before they cost clicks.
Copy a plain-text report for a marketer or developer.

Example: review a paid-social link before launch

Paste the exact URL from the ad platform, including every UTM parameter and click-tracking value. Run the check, then compare the starting parameters with the values that reach the final landing page.

If a warning shows a lost campaign value, long redirect chain, canonical mismatch, or noindex signal, fix the destination or tracking template and run the same URL again. Copy the plain-text report when you need to hand the issue to a marketer or developer.

Repeat the check once more from a clean browser session after the fix. Consent banners, geo redirects or A/B tests can change the path for some visitors even when the first check looks clean.

What to know before you start

The destination site receives a normal inspection request from Haivix infrastructure.
Some consent systems and personalized redirects behave differently by location or browser, so verify critical campaigns in the target market too.
A clean report reduces common launch risk but does not replace analytics-platform conversion testing.
The checker inspects one URL at a time; it is not a site-wide crawl.

Common mistakes

Testing a shortened URL instead of the full URL that the ad platform will serve.
Assuming a 200 final status means the campaign parameters survived.
Ignoring a canonical that points to a different page than the ad destination.
Launching on a redirect chain that adds seconds to the first click.
Checking only in a browser that has a consent cookie or an ad blocker enabled.
Forgetting that some platforms append their own click ID only at serve time.

Troubleshooting

If parameters disappear, inspect each hop. A redirect to a login, consent or regional page is the usual cause; the fix belongs in the tracking template or the destination rule.

If the checker cannot reach the URL, the site may block automated requests or require authentication. Test the public destination instead and ask the site owner about the gate.

If the report shows a redirect loop, the destination is misconfigured. Fix the rule before sending traffic; browsers will stop with an error.

If the final page reports noindex, the ad may still work but search and some partner placements will not. Confirm whether the destination is meant to be indexed.

If results differ from a real click, the site may personalize by location, cookie or user agent. Re-test in the target market and compare the paths.
