Scenario…
1. You moved your Blogger blogspot blog to a new custom domain.
2. You want to check if Blogger implemented a 301 redirect for redirecting your old blogspot url to your new custom domain.
3. You use the Blogger free hosting service, and therefore do not have access to the back-end of your site for full control.
If that scenario fits you, or if you want to double-check your 301 redirect for any other url, here’s a handy 301 redirect checker tool to use! To clarify for those who are not yet familiar with redirect codes, a 301 redirect creates a permanent redirect for your old domain name to your new domain.
To utilize the tool, enter your old url (blogspot.com url if that’s what you had) and the redirect checker tool will determine if indeed the old url is working under the 301 redirect command to go to your domain. It’s that easy!
I checked my old blogspot urls to determine if mine was correctly redirected utilizing the 301 redirect, and here’s the image from using the redirect checker tool so you can see how easy it is to use.

Happy blogging on your own domain!
